I would recommend Adam's polishes. I got turned on to them by other 5th gen and Corvette guys. A little expensive, but great products that smell great. Otherwise Mothers and Maguires are good products. Please dont use Armourall.

I like my interior clean but not shiny or greasy so I use mild soap and water or a detail spray like Adam's. They also make a In and Out spray if you want a little shine without the greasy feel. Invisible glass for the windows, be careful with the radio plastic window, it scratches easily.

Try to find a product that has some UV protection in it for the dash. Mothers, Maguires have good interior cleaners and detail sprays. I just remember back in the day when Armourall came out how oily and greasy it was and how much dirt it attracted. There are so many detail products now, the fill a whole aisle in the auto parts store.

Adams all the way.
I have chrome American Racing Torque Thrust M's and I don't bother with chrome cleaner. I just wash them with the Adams regular wash and dry them and they look great.
The pure Carnauba wax is expensive $75 and doesn't last long but the shine is unreal. Their wash mitts and waffle drying towels are worth every penny. I couldn't see paying for 2 5 gallon bucks when I could get them from work for free.
Watch the Adams videos, you will learn a lot
