Cleaning Advice

Hi All,

Looking at cleaning the trim in the doors and on the dashboard. I’ve attached some photos if they work of the area I’m referring to.

What does everyone usually use to to clean these?

Also the infotainment screen? What’s everyone using on that??

Very happy with the results from this all-in-on interior cleaner from Chemical Guys.

The dash and screen I simply wipe down with a clean and dry micro fiber cloth. All you really get there is dust and you want to pick it up with the microfiber. My car has the full leather option so the dash top and full door cards are leather. If I didn't have that, I would use a product called "bike spirits". It's great on plastics and vinyl, etc and can be used on metal without issue. The product cleans well and leaves the surface clean and natural? looking. It doesn't add much shine. I've been using it for years on my E39 M5.
