Default Interior detailing

Now, we've had lots of talk about waxes and polishes, Zaino vs Blackfire, but what I want to know is, what should we be using on the interior? Leather conditioners, Armor All, your thoughts I want to know. Notice how the driver's door gets scuffed from you shoe hitting it? How do you best get rid of that? What do you use as a plastic cleaner? Anything specific to use on the strut bar?

Let's talk.

I know exactly what you're talking about especially since I have a 9 year old and after baseball practice his show hit that bottom plastic piece all the time and dirties it all up.

All I've been doing is wiping it down with a quick detail spray during the in-between car wash periods and when I do wash the car I clean that area with the Zaino Z-7 car wash that I use to clean my car with and then I put some of the Meguiar's Natural Vinyl and Rubber Protectant on it and it seems to clean up pretty good.

I am sure Brad could come up with some better ideas as I am an amateur.

I like to use a mixture of woolite and water for cleaning anything from carpet to plastics and like Victor said, the Meguiars Natural Shine works good too.

The only thing I don't recommend is using the Meguiar's on the door panels. That made a mess. It streaked no matter and no matter how much I tried to blend it I couldn't get it perfect because of all the little gaps that the material has. It took almost 3 weeks for me to finally clean it off and I now am only using a little soap and water and it looks much better.

I'm a 303 Aerospace convert. The stuff is low gloss, no oily mess, just spray on, let sit for a few minutes, and wipe off.
