two squirts of this into your detailing MF towel... wipe

it's a QD but it works very well for cleaning plastics and rubber bits.

ive pretty much tried them all.

Aerospace303 is good too, but not as matte as Nero.

I only keep my exterior clean for the most part. Inside's a little dusty. But if I do clean it once in a while, I use damp cloth. Since the dash isn't leather or anything fancy, it doesn't require whole lot of care.

mine too. i dont like dust so just use my slightly damp MF towel to wipe clean. but i recommend anyone with a new car to apply PrimaNero BEFORE you get any scuffs, expecially on the door panels.

i also use california interior duster at times.

Damp cloth for me. If it's really stubborn I use MEK.

I use the griots garage interior cleaner. It cleans and conditions. Then I wipe it again with the plastic / vinyl cleaner which has uv protection.
