Interior Products?

Can anybody recommend good interior cleaning products that won't leave any smell and won't leave a shiny finish?

I'd like to keep everything looking brand new as long as possible. I can't stand a shiny steering wheel.

I use Chemical guys Interior cleaner with a little brush to really get in the crevices. Works pretty well. I can't recommend anything for the steering wheel however. My car is still pretty new.

Please get some Gyeon or Angelwax or Griots or something guys. You’re driving a BMW, care for it appropriately.

I use Gyeon interior detailer on all my interior leather and Gyeon vinyl cleaner on all the interior hard plastics.

For the rubber floor mats I use Koch Chemie Gummifix ( after cleaning them with an all purpose cleaner )

The search feature on these forums is garbage. It populates far more than what was searched.

Be like everybody else who replied to my question... not a dick.

Sent you a link in my response above.
It’s a dedicated thread on this forum and
can provide you with some helpful info.

There’s five other threads on the first page of this sub forum related to interior detailing. I’ll stop being a dick when you stop being lazy.

Colourlock mild leather cleaner occasionally. I recommend DIY Detail Rinseless or ONR in a spray bottle at double exterior wash dilution for light interior cleaning / maintenance.

Ditto -- I've used their Cockpit Premium for years. Also started using Griot's Interior Detailer on my wife's car because she prefers the scent over the Nextzett.

Hey man, whatever's going on in your personal life I hope the situation improves. If it doesn't, maybe take a look in the mirror.

Colourlock for the seats. They have faux and real leather cleaner + UV protection packs.

Was mainly using AMMO NYC's interior cleaner but lately I've been using P&S Xpress Interior for the rest but I'm not convinced it's that great of a product.

I use Colourlock mild leather cleaner for cleaning my leather (does great!). But….how does the Colourlock leather treatment do on getting the leather looking back to new (especially making steering less shiny)? I haven’t tried the treatment product yet, only the cleaner.

Nextzett Cockpit Premium unless I need more cleaning power, then I break out the P&S Express.

CG Nonsense is the best interior cleaner I’ve ever used. If you’ve ever cleaned a potheads former car then you know.

I like Jay Lenos leather cleaner for mild cleaning of leather as well.
