Default interior cleaning Q

My hoe has tan leather and it gets dirty fast but I still have not found anything good at getting it back to new. I tried the meguires(sp) cleaner but did not work that well. I went to advance yesterday and bought another cleaner which cost more, can't remember the nam but I belive it was in a white bottle. Lenox or something like that LOL. Well that poop did not do any better.

Also my seatbelts are turning black. I heard simple green works and to use purple power but diloute the shat out of it first... Any thoughts before I kill my interior using this stuff. What worked great for you doods?

I did find out the other day warm water works great on the console... Better than some cleaners I have used. I pulled out all the console and lower dash stuff so I could clean all the cracks out, now I need to do the door panels and dash then rent a carpet cleaner so I can get the rotted taco meet smell out LOL.

For heavy soil you can use a more aggressive cleaner like Car Brite X tra duty. But make sure to add some conditioner after leaning like GM#88861402.

Glass cleaner and a sponge for cleaning dishes one that has the scrubbing side. Soak the seat with glass cleaner then scrub the seat (not really hard but enough to get it clean) then wipe it dry and condition it. Hope this helps.
