Any suggestions for best cleaning products for the leather and interior plastics.... not something that leaves them looking overly polished....

 

My advice for plastics is just to take a damp chamois and wipe over the dash to take off the dust. Most products i've tried will leave a residue of some sort. Autoglym Interior Car Shampoo is pretty good though if you have to use something, perhaps to remove a stubborn mark etc.


Leather-wise, I've found Zymol leather cleaner and conditioner to be very good at removing marks and leaving the leather soft and supple. Smells very nice too!

Does Zymol leather cleaner smell 'leathery?' - I would quite like to keep that smell as long as possible...

 

Zaino's Z10 keeps that leather smell and does a good job of conditioning and protecting the seats.

 

I, too, use the Zaino cleaner and Leather in a Bottle for the upholstery, but for the dash I've tried the Meguiar's and I like it. The only thing with the Meguiar's is you can't spray it directly on the dash - it splatters EVERYWHERE. Spray some on a terry cloth away from the car, and wipe on - wipe off. It's comes out dark and clean, but not shiny.

 

Thanks lads....

Advice much appreciated

 

Zaino is hard to get in this country (tho someone was working out a deal for the Owners Club... TitG? Rob? )

Zymol has a very nice buttery vanilla smell (hard to describe) but it makes the TVR smell like the day it came out of the dealer, so I'd say it works at keeping that leather smell..
