No shine no slip interior cleaner

I'm sure this has been discussed a million times and I've searched and havent found a definite answer but what is the best kind of wipe or spray to use on the interior without having that Armor All glow and without it being so dang slippery.

I feel like an idiot, I've been on this board for so long now and I still ask these kind of questions...eesh.

I use Vinylex made by the same folks that make Lexol leather care and cleaner.

I think it is on www.lexol.com or just google for it.

Best stuff I've found. My local dealer carries it.

I dilute some Simple Green with water (10 to 1) since it cleans well and doesn't "coat" the dash with anything and then once a month I like to use Meguire's Natural Shine since it protects with out looking like you glossed all your plastic.

Those both sound like good ideas to me, I never thought of using Simple Green. I think I've heard of Vinylex before, looks like I may have to make a trip to Ace Hardware and try that stuff out.

Keep the ideas comin!

Make sure you don't use the Simple green on any aluminum. It corrodes it. Do a search here on Yotatech for Simple Green. Very informative thread.

Well turns out I found an AWESOME product! Its the NXT Generation Tech Protect from Meguiars...this stuff rocks! Holy crap, I got some lint free cloths from Wal-Mart and went nuts...it looks so good! Its shiny, but not Armor All shiny and there is no grease left behind, feels perfectly normal to the touch and looks awesome!

I HIGHLY recommend this stuff!

Do a search on here for:
Tuff Stuff

I have some info on that stuff on my detail page.
Simply put, it works on everything on your interior.

I use it on dash, carpets, plastic on the dash, console, you name it.
I even use it to clean up barf in the home from Mr. Furball when he up-chucks.

This stuff leaves no shiny residue, it just cleans.
Been using it for years now on the 4Runner.

Comes in both pump spray and pressurized can.
I use the former.

I actually have some Tuff Stuff but the kind I have says not to use it on plastic or vinyl. I'm not sure what kind it is.

I may try that next time to see which kind I like better...thanks for the suggestion Corey.
