Prevention and cleaning

Just got the car a few weeks ago and want to keep it looking showroom quality.....or as close as possible. Just wondering if anyone has suggestions on the best stuff to use for cleaning leather interior, dashboards, door paneling, etc. as well as good wax, exterior car wash, rim cleaner etc.

I know this is a very general question, I'm just hoping someone could at least point me in the right direction in this area.

Thanks in advance for all the advice

Now I would suggest for leather
1Z Leather care

Dash and door panels(vinyl)
1Z Vinyl/rubber cleaner

Car shampoo
SONUS Gloss shampoo.

Wheel cleaner P21S or Sonus wheel bright(Both work well but Sonus is a little cheaper in price)

Wax
Selant...Klasse or 1Z Glanz Wax
Carnuaba wax. P21S or Pinnacle

You will also need a natural wash mitt (wool sheepskin), two buckets for washing, Soap bucket and a rinse bucket with clean water to rinse wash mitt off between applying soap to new part of car. Drying towel, some will say Chamois I say been there done that. I now use SOnus Ultimate Drying towel. Glass I use Eagle One 20/20. QUick detail spray I use 1Z Lackfinish.


Hope this has helped.
