Woolite for interior Plastic/Vinyl/leatherette?

[PointyStick]

Does anyone still use diluted woolite to clean interior Plastic/Vinyl/leatherette? If so, what dilution?



If not, what do you use when cleaning interior Plastic/Vinyl/leatherette?



Thanks,

Woolite/Water Ratio 10:1

[JaredPointer]

I use it all the time. I use the way-back dilution of 6:1. Not real sure when the norm became 10:1, as it seems everyone is using it at that now. Maybe I missed that thread. Next time I whip up a bottle, I may try it to see what (if any) differences there are.

Use the newer Woolite HE at 20:1 dilution.

In case you`re already not doing this, make sure to so a final clean water wipedown afterwards. Woolite(and other cleaners) can leaves a very slight film/residue behind that will accelerate resoiling.

A clean, damp MF towel works great.

If I dress the interior vinyl and leather with Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer, that seems to work great as well.

I use 10:1, works good on nasty interior surfaces, although that Automagic HD cleaner (hope I got that name right) that David told me about works good too. I`m not a fan of using APC`s on the interior unless it`s a complete puke pit.

Glad to know it is still in use, as I am still using it.



Do you guys usually clean the Plastic/Vinyl/leatherette then protectant? For example if the surface looks clean do you just go with protectant?



What about for regular surface maintenance, do you clean the surface every-so-often then add protectant? even if not visibly dirty?

I only clean things that are dirty, but you gotta watch that you do *notice* the dirt; something might not be as clean as you think it is ;)

90-some% of the time I just use Meg`s Interior QD.



But again, you gotta watch that the soiling doesn`t happen so gradually and evenly that you don`t notice it`s truly dirty.

How do you guys measure 10:1? Is there a special technique or is that just an eyeballed estimate.



I know, retarded question. lol

Just because it looks clean doesn`t mean it is. Once everything is clean and protected, when you wash the car, go over the interior with a clean damp MF towel or a product like Meguiars Interior QD.



2007TBSS-I have a little measuring cup that I use.

The sprayer I have has the dilution ratios marked on the side of the bottle. Fill up with whatever product to the desired dilution point and then add water to the fill line.
