Interior dressing

I've been using the same interior dressing now for a long time. The other day I noticed that it smelt really bad. I think that the heat and it staying in my van all day has ruined it. I wanted to buy some different dressing that had a pleasant smell, not strong pina coloda type stuff, but something nice. Also I don't like that greasy, shiny type look either. Something that makes the panels look like new, kinda matte with just a little bit of shine. Whats a good dressing to use? I know I'm going to get the usual 15 different kinds but just trying to get some choices here. Thanks
 
Optimum Protectant Plus or 303 both finish matte and work well but OPT cost less. You will get people that don't like the smell and other who really like the smell...I'm one of the ones who like the smell so I say go with OP+.
 
narrowed it down to 1Z cockpit or PB's NL. some say they both do a good job and smell good....well some say they smell good others say they smell bad.
 
I like OPP a lot, as well as FK #108. I do not care for PB's Natural Look, as the smell is very annoying and customers do not want their cars smelling like old cough syrup. Plus it doesn't last that long.
 
the smell of the poorboys is alil too overwhelming for me, and it produces a lot of shine, atleast in my opinion, but i am very biased to a matte finish. I love the 1Z products. Cockpit premium is great, and leaves a nice "classy" smell behind, and a nice matte finish, almost like right out of the factory, but it leaves very lil protection esepcially for UV rays. But you can always top it with 1z Teinfleger (sp???) which keeps the matte finish, and leaves a nice smell behind with protection.
 
Has anyone ever used that DP stuff? I think its called "interior protectant"? Maybe its another alternative.



However, for me, I use and like 303. But then again, I've never tried anything else - so I'm definitely not going to discount other protectants.

so do you have to use the cockpit premium and just use the tiefenpfleger?
 
I've enjoyed both of the Sonus interior products. Nice look, not a strong smell, not greasy and have UV protection.



I've used the 1Z Tiefenpfleger also, but only on some exterior trim and weatherstripping. It seems to have maybe a bit more shine compared to what I've seen with Sonus. However, it could just be because I've used each product for a different application.
 
+1 for Megs Natural Shine. I had a bottle stiiting on the back of the shelf for a long time. I have been using 303, 4* and OPP. I wanted a little more shine so I used the Megs and it was exactly what I was looking for. I dont really care for 303. Doesnt seem to last long.
 
I just ordered the Revised Optimum Protectant Plus product. This new product is supposed to have a leather scent and should be easier to apply. I'll post my results after I try it in a few days.
