Magic Erasers are awesome for plastic parts. Just be careful on leather or vinyl. It can strip the finish off if you're too rough.

303 Aerospace Protectant is another good product. It's a bit more expensive, though.
Just went out and got a bottle of it today. Works awesome, I would say its the best stuff I've used so far!

I've been using Zymol products on SLICK'S interior since new, seats and dash. Sadly, it's not available everywhere, California Car Cover or on line....Gary

meguiars wax and sometimes polish outside, stoner glass cleaner (btw, anyone have a trick for cleaning the rear windshield? jesus that thing hurts to clean, so awkward), dash and everything else just gets vacuumed and rubbed down with a damp microfiber cloth.

303 Aerospace Protectorant is the only way to go. Everything else is just absolute garbage, might ad well buy Armor-al. Detailed Image (one of our sponsors) always runs specials for us on their website. Don't buy the cheap crap at the auto parts store, it's a sad waste if time.

What's cheap about Meguiar's and Mother's?

Plenty of body shops that I've been to use Meguiar's professional line of detailing products on cars. You just can't readily get those products at places like AutoZone and Advance because they realize that the average car enthusiast either A) has no use for it, or B) won't know how to use the product properly.

When have you used aerospace 303 protectorant in the past? I've used virtually every other brand of cleaner and have never liked any. I refused to buy 303 for years because of the crazy price but I finally did. I went ahead ordered a gallon and now use it on both my cars at least every other week. It's neither greasy or rapidly evaporates like everything else does. Try it, you'll love it.
