Default Cleaning inside...

Hey guys,

I have a question.... I just got done washing my car. But I dont know what to use on the inside??? The inside has that wierd material, I dont know what to use on it?? It shows scuff marks and dirt easy, usually i can just rub it off with my fingers or a towel... but how about any solvents?? What do you guys suggest?

I just use a damp microfiber towel to wipe out the interior.

Once a month, I'll use 303 Aerospace Protectant on the interior. Because of the dimpled surface of the doors, etc., you can't just spray something on them and expect to spread it around. You have to spray some on a cloth and use that to apply it.

You don't want to use too much or that with cause the blotches you see. Expirement with increasing amounts till you find what works without too much blotchiness.

For the leather, Zaino Z9 and Z10. Going on 27,000 miles and it has that leather smell it had when I drove it off the lot.

I haven't seen the 303 in stores although I hear it is sold in boating supply stores.

You can get in online in several places though. Here's my favorite place.

I'm still getting some spotting on the door panels. Any recommendations?

As of now, I have been spraying on a cloth then applying to the door.

I still get them occasionally but you can only see them when the door is opened and the sun is shining on them.

I also recommend the 303 stuff (works well on tires too). You can check here http://www.303products.com/main.php?...retailersearch
for local places that carry it. The search also lists which products the retailers carry, so you know where to go for your gallong jug!

You might be able to get it cheaper online, but it is always nice to know where to go pick some up if you run out in the middle of detailing
