Default Cleaner for Interior Plastics That Wont Dry Out Plastics

Suggestions? I heard that Armor All and similar products actually dry out the plastic causing them to crack. What are alternatives?


Thanks!

3M makes a good one. It's about three times the price of armor all...but I used to use armor all and now i'm a 3M fan. It's worth the money.

I use a damp microfiber towel and spray it with Meguiars Natural Shine and just wipe it all down. Looks great, not greasy and doesn't collect dust.

I do automotive interior repair for a living. to tell you the truth, Fantastic works just fine. just don't ever spray directly on the plastic, spray it on a rag and then wipe down surface.
