Default Interior Cleaning

I was bored so I thought I'd ask.
Whats everyone using to clean their interiors?
I used Armor All wipes today but normally somthing called
"Liquid Chrome". Apply n Wipe. Simplicity in its greatest form.

I think its the shiznit of interior cleaning products.

For the dash and all that I used to use the Armourall low gloss, as I do not like gloss, even on my tires, call me old school I guess. I cannot find it anymore though. So now I am debating myself.

Oscar, I agree with you... I hate the interior gloss!!

For the exterior of my car: Meguiar's NXT wax, Eagle One Alloy wheel cleaner, Meguiar's NXT tire shine ( I do love glossy tires though haha)

Interior: Spray Way glass foam, Windex, Q-tips for pedal and gauge cleaning, Passier saddle soap and Ko Cho Line leather protectant

Engine Bay: Simple Green, tire foam to shine the hoses and Mother's billet aluminum polish

Yeah!! The good weather is coming up!

Wow, Q-Tips ... You are somthing else.

Interior - I mentioned above.
Exterior - Rims I use this mag polish my old man HAD a container of, but the label has worn and I've never seen a simillar container. Works really well. Tires I use Meguiars cause I find the shine lasts longest, not to mention smells like grapes. Windows I use windex Auto and I apply Rain-x to the exterior. Anyone else try this stuff out? Makes the water beed off

Yeah grape smell!!

I haven't used Rain-x on my car but I've been thinking about it (considering BC has had 19 days of rain out of the last 23 ). Does it leave a filmy residue though?

That stuff is so awesome.

I haven't found it to leave any reside on the windshield or any other window.
But like any wax you wipe on and wipe off.

You don't "need" wipers but if you do use them the water seems to EXPLODE off the windshield.

It really completes the car after you wax the paint.
