How do you clean your interior's ?? Audi products?

[chaos2984]

What products do you guys use to clean your interior. Everything but the leather seats. I use armorall protectant right now the whit stuff. Works good to me but lives a little streaky sometimes. Have any of you uses the audi car care stuff. Prices seem pretty cheap for interior cleaner's. Just wondering if any of you guys have used it and liked it. Or what else that u use. ??

[Mops@Nemesis]

Trash that AA. It's harmful longterm, and ugh the greasy mess. Adams has a "leather and interior cleaner" and "total interior cleaner". Both are very good.

+1. Armourall is shit.

[chaos2984]

[Dannydyn]

Dampped (water) micro-fiber towel, and just wipe off the dust.

I use this stuff (as per Mops recommendation) and it is freakin amazing.

[s4buckeye]

Adams stuff is great, DD and CG have other great products, but I use LeatherMaster stuff in liter sizes on Amazon.

Exactly - don't need anything else unless you spill something

If you don't clean and condition your leather with quality products every so often the leather will dry out, fade, crack and become shitty.

If you keep your car for a year or less, park inside all the time and never sit on the seats your method is fine.

This when I clean + detailer who cleans and conditions 1-2x per year.

Adams stuff is top notch. And I use leather master foam cleaner for the alcantara parts of the interior

[will13k7]

I've been loving this combo for a flat non-greasy look:

Sonax Dashboard Cleaner
Chemical Guys Vintage Series Leather Conditioner

I haven't really needed to clean the Leather, but I did try Auto Finesse Hide Leather Cleaner once, seemed okay.

To freshen up the smell:

Chemical Guys New Car Smell Premium Air Freshener
Since its summer: Chemical Guys Watermelon Scent Premium Air Freshener

For the floor mats I used the Durrmaid extractor with a Chemical Guys odor eliminator and cleaner, worked great!

[chaos2984]

great info guys ill have to check out that website for adams stuff
thanks

[Mops@Nemesis]

$5 flat ship, plus free Rinseless wash with a $75 purchase right now. Codes applies. @chaos2984

[MrFunk]

+1 - do not use AA. It's garbage!

For general cleaning I use http://www.detailersdomain.com/1Z-ei...mium_p_70.html



For the leather I use adam's leather cleaner: http://www.detailersdomain.com/Adams...-oz_p_459.html



Then I condition it with Pinnacle Leather Conditioner - http://www.amazon.com/Pinnacle-Natur...er+conditioner

Einszett Cockpit, Einszett Deep Plastic Cleaner, and Leatherique Rejuvenate + Pristine Clean

[mattchat]

Anyone used 303 Aerospace? I just bought some because it was on sale and I couldn't find the 1Z in stock anywhere.

It's very good for exterior rubber. Used it for many years.


Mops on the move

[BrewDude]

One part Woolite to ten parts distilled water. I use it on everything interior wise to clean.

303 afterwards.

[IceFour]

Adams stuff is great, DD and CG have other great products, but I use LeatherMaster stuff in liter sizes on Amazon.

Buckeye pointed me to this and so far it's worked really well.

[Guitarmageddon]

+1 on this. Great stuff

For leather...Ive tried it all. Leatherique is the only way to go.

[chaos2984]

so what you guys think 1z or adams for interior cleaner

[s4buckeye]

Adams stuff is great, but for an interior clean I use Einszett Cockpit, Einszett Deep Plastic Cleaner, Einszett Vinyl Rubber Care and Protectant, Einszett Windscreen Clear, Chemical Guys New Car Scent, then for seats and leather LeatherMaster Cleaner and Conditioner.

[oascom]

Chemical guys is the way to go. Great products

[AKPS4]

It seems like all these products work great but only an actual side by side application and comparison can provide the "which is best" answer.

I use Audi's interior cleaning products. Particularly the cockpit spray which cleans all plastic components to better than new. It's quite amazing. I have not tried any other interior cleaner but I use various other 1z and Adams products and they all work very well. A combination of price, access or actually witnessing the products in action will likely sway anyone to buy that specific product.

Sonax Leather Foam

[audistealth]

No love for Lexol?

Sub'd for future reference. Need to look up how rinse less wash works.

[Pilfer]

I use einzsett cockpit cleaner and Adams glass cleaner. For leather I use this

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0002Z...&robot_redir=1

Great stuff, leaves the leather feeling great.

I also use sonax air freshener to prevent or remove odors. This was recommended by Phil at detailers domain.

Sonax Leather Foam

http://www.autogeek.net/sonax-leather-foam.html

I've been using this and quite like it. Remember to buff afterward and the sheen is pretty natural.

[chaos2984]

Yea i just ordered some glass cleaner and some 1z interior cleaner.

[will13k7]

... Adams glass cleaner.

+1, this stuff is great, easy to use and gets no streaks since it polishes dry and clear. Best with glass specific MF towels, I have the Adams.

[chaos2984]

Yea i have regular MF towels that seem to work just fine for me.

[will13k7]

works well too, just takes a little longer to get it perfect, maybe 10% more time spent for me at least.

I really is. I add a bit of water to my MF, and go crazy. Sometimes come back to buff out glossy stuff/alu. Adams is excellent, but there are certainly better products. There are always better products. For the price point/ease of use, its hard to beat. There is certainly a market to those that want a product that is good enough for 98%, but costs just above off-the-shelf stuff.

What?! There's something better, not just equally good, for the glass? man, I was already overly impressed with the Adams glass cleaner coming from auto-parts store bought car glass cleaners. So what product gets you that last 2%?

[s4buckeye]

this stuff from CG also works well (for some peeps, lol)

[will13k7]

That will pair well with the Leather Masters stuff, since LM smells like jizz!
