Interior detailing: any suggestions?

[Tfer]

Now that South East Queensland is on Level 5 Water Restrictions, obviously due to almost drought conditions, dust is everywhere.

Hence my query.... currently I use Mequiars Quik Interior Detailer to do over the interior of the Veccy C (leather interior). My concern is the build up of dust... almost as if the Quik Interior Detailer attracts it :(

So, I throw this open to all of you.... what do you use and is it an effective dust repellent? :angel:

Mr Elextrolux

Works everytime!

on plastic and vinyl just use a damp microfibre cloth to clean off the dust, the a dry microfibre cloth to dry the surfaces

on leather use a dry microfibre cloth to remove excess dust, then use the Meguiars Leather Cleaner (foam, not cream) on the leather to keep it moisturised

Thanks Ketchy, but anything else you can use between the Hoovering? :o

Thanks Donna.... I shall try this on the dash etc (the leather is not a problem as already use the Meguiars Leather Conditioning) :)

So, just plain water?

you can put a little bit of soap in it if you want to give it a good clean or if it's really dirty, not necessary tho - water does the trick alright.

i'm sure other people have their methods too - but that's the quickest and easiest way i've found

i should do my interior soon too.... windows included... they are so filthy

I think your owner's manual suggests warm soapy water and a cloth to clean interior surfaces.

Never, ever use products with silicone in them!
Leaves a residue which eventually ends up on the windows!

A chamois is good for cleaning the glass (interior and exterior)

Silicon also absorbs into plastic and makes it crack ... not so cool

- No Armourall on anything that gets sunlight on it
