Dash and other plastic pieces like the doors etc. I use warm soapy water and just wipe it down. For the leather seats I use Lexol cleaner then their conditioner.

warm soapy water is great for cleaning it, but it leaves the plastic extremely brittle, it needs some sort of conditioner for follow up, i used to use armor all but not anymore, i haven't found a good alternative yet

I hate Armor All. Leaves everything all greasy and I think the dust sticks to it faster. I'm a big fan of Meguires products

Yea, not to mention the alcohol in the armor all leaves thing much more brittle then before, i guess i'll start experimenting with some other stuff.

Mother's interior cleaner, mmm, smells good.

And Eagle One conditioner on the leather, people tell me I should be using something more expensive, but I think it does a good job.

Zaino products on the leather.

I wipe down everything with a microfiber towel to remove dust, and use Meguiars plastic cleaner if needed. I hate that armaroll/greasy look, that's not how it looked from the factory.

For deep cleanings, I use a diluted all-purpose cleaner and a soft brush. For regular maintenance, I use Meguiar's Interior Quik Detailer or Griot's Interior Cleaner.

If it needs dressed/conditioned, I use Meguiar's Natural Shine, Adam's VRT, and Zaino Z9/Z10.

I use Meguiars products on my interior. I use the Natural Shine on the plastics and the Meguiars Leather wipes.

i use Meguires interoir detailing stuff. to wipe down the plastic peaces and dash. with a terry cloth. and armour all's leather wipes. but like stated before it leaves the seats greasy and slippry feeling. and i don't really like it. so when they wipes are gone ill probably change to something else. just don't know what yet.
