Interior Cleaner

Calli.J · 10-07-2023, 03:29 AM

I am looking for opinions on interior cleaners for my 2018 SS. Any suggestions?

Surf City Garage Dash Away is my all time favorite.

I use Adam's leather/interior cleaner interior detailer, see here. They work well, but to be honest, my car's interior never gets really dirty.

Another vote for Adam's. I have most of the products linked by arpad_m

I just vacuum mine then, dust it with Micro cloths. for the steering wheel I use Windex on a rag to get the hand oils off.

Griots Interior Cleaner is great. If it’s just a light cleanup then Griots Interior Detailer. Figured if their stuff is good enough for a $10M Ferrari Daytona then probably ok for my hooptie

Same here as my inside never gets dirty. I just clean my seat every 2 weeks and that is about it.

I use Maguire's interior quik detailer. I buy it by the gallon from their detailer product, fantastic value like that. Apply it with one towel and wipe it down with another.

That is what i use.

A damp cloth is just fine, no need to buy a product for it.

I use chemical guys nonsense cleaner with a soft brush, then wipe off. I used to use leather cleaner and conditioner on the leather with the ss only to find out it has a coating on in, so most cleaners work on it. There is no need to condition it. I buff rain x on the exterior windows and use invisible glass on the interior windows. Sonax on Alcantara with a soft brush and soft toothbrush if you have it. I try to avoid any shiney or glossy profucts as they smudge, spread to other things when touched, and seem to attract dust more. Obviously just my opinion, I hope it helps!

Thanks for the suggestions, I let my girlfriend bring her son who is 5 years old and he got something sticky on the back seat.

Meguiar's cleaner & protectant for the dash & plastic areas - been using it for years. I use Chemical Guys for the leather cleaner and conditioner. It works well enough for me and I like the smell.

In case someone doesn't know, none of our cars have bare leather. It's "finished leather", it's vinyl coated leather. Think of a clear coat. If you don't believe me go look at the myriad of arguments in detailing forums over it over what products to use.

Spoiler: use whatever you want, just don't get tricked by the advertising. When I was younger I bought a EXPENSIVE leatherique resto kit that was really for old handmade luxury cars with unfinished leather.
