Best cleaner for the interior... - 11/10/2006 7:45:50 AM    downbynature   Posts: 10 Joined: 9/25/2006 Status: offline Please, tell me your thoughts. I've just been wiping everything down with a cloth but it looks like she needs a good cleaning. I didn't want to use Armor all because I heard that it dries things out after a while. Any tips would be appreciated. Post #: 1

So far its okay, I didnt know it will crack though. Does it really? Anyway, I just wonder if I can use this too for the doors and dashboard? Or there are other cleaners for that also? I dont know much about cars. As long as it runs, looks good and clean I wont know any difference. (in reply to Tracker) Post #: 7

What are the ingredients in Armor All® Protectants? Do they include silicone, alcohol, ultraviolet inhibitors and petroleum distillates? Armor All® Leather Care contains lanolin and natural moisturizers, and UV inhibitors. Armor All® Leather Care Protectant Spray and Leather Wipes contain water-based silicone emulsions, surfactants, and ultraviolet light inhibitors. Armor All® Original Shine Protectant contains water-based silicone emulsions, surfactants, and ultraviolet light inhibitors, humectants, dispersants and gloss enhancers. Armor All® Ultimate Clean Protectant contains water-based silicone emulsions, surfactants, ultraviolet light inhibitors and a fragrance. < Message edited by markts -- 3/4/2007 10:32:41 AM > (in reply to dr4g0n3) Post #: 10
