    Recommended cleaning products and procedures for keeping the interior spick and span

    Nice and clean at the moment, kids have been banned from eating and drinking in the car, and I'm not allowed any rubbish in the door bins

    Hey OBN - List of products I use at present.

    Leather - Meguiars Gold Class leather cleaner and dressing
    Fabric - MINI interior shampoo - dilute with water in a squirty bottle - last for ages; works well and smells nice.
    Plastic - Meguirs NXT vinyl dressing - one coat leaves a nice semi gloss effect.
    Glass - Wash up liquid in water - dry with a MF cloth then paper towel or newspaper.

    In between full cleans I keep the interior smelling fresh with a squirt or two of Febreeze on the car mats.

    Buy a 2" paint brush to dust the airvents and between the dials.

    :)

    Excellent thanks Wul.

    Is it ok to use the interior shampoo on the seats they've been Supaguarded.

    Just for future reference don't plan on letting any dirty inside, just wish I could ban birds (of the feathered variety), bugs and dirt on the road

    You'd need to check the bumf on the supaguard - I reckon it will as in theory it's a dresisng which makes it easier to clean the dirt off the fabric.
