Correct me if I`m wrong is Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer good for interiors? I have been looking for something that does NOT leave a shiny armor all like look... Just want the new dash look...
From what I read that seems like the choice or the Sonus?

Vinylex or 303 (both locally available) for the matte (new) interior vinyl look. I also love and use the Sonus "Total Eclipse". Not as matte as 303 or Vinylex but a very pleasing mild gloss.
Presently, the Sonus "Total Eclipse" is my vinyl protectant of choice. Seems to resist dust and maintains appearance month after month on my daily driver`s dash. :xyxthumbs

Try PBs Natural Look or Adam`s VRT.

Most water based vinyl protectants will look pretty good when applied correctly. Here`s the basic trick:
1. Surface needs to be clean
2. Apply protectant with a foam applicator/sponge... use liberally to get the surface completely wet with product
3. Allow time for the product to penetrate and dry
4. Give interior a final wipe down with a damp (wring out as much water as possible) microfiber towel.
The final wipe down is critical for many products.
All of the "Interior Detailer" sprays I have tried do a great job of leaving a matte finish. The problem with most of these sprays is that they do not protect. How do you know if a product protects? There is a simple test. If a product does not leave a film it can`t offer protection of any kind. So shoot your Interior Detailer on glas and give it a wipe. If it wipes away perfectly clean the spray is a great dusting agent, but it`s not really helping to protect your interior.

Ok thanks guys! Would you say to use 303 or Sonus over Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer?
Also which of these will protect then? Since I can`t buy them all and test haha.

You can not lose with either 303 or Sonus. From my experience as stated before both protect my driven investments (Lexus, Cadilliac, Z28). Obviously, I have faith in both.
I give the edge to Sonus presently because of its neutral aroma (almost no odor).
I just love my leather conditioner smell (Z10).

I think the Megs quick Interior detailer does a great job. This product leaves a natural matt finish, but yet also cleans.
Good luck,
