Trim cleaner
So tomorrow we return the Labrador of doom...... after 2 and half weeks dog sitting a golden lab that rolls in every ditch he finds the luggage compartment needs a good clean! What’s best for getting mud and drool off the headrests load cover glass and the rest of the boot...... the fitted load liner which has been hosed off 3 times already is well worth the cost for this event alone!

I have 3 working dogs, I would give all surfaces a thorough hoovering to start, followed by a microfibre cloth (probably several) dampened with kitchen antibacterial cleaner for all the hard surfaces, finally a quick spray of frebreeze or similar on the absorbant surfaces.

CarPro Perl
Water this stuff down, 5 to 1 for interior use, 3 to 1 exterior use and 1 to 1 on your tyres Use it on plastics, leather, rubber You will not by another product after trying this, it lasts for about 3 months before you need to clean it again, gives instant results, read the reviews! https://www.amazon.co.uk/CarPro-Plas...ds=carpro+perl Would recommend this product |

Perl is a top notch product, but it's not a cleaner, it provides protection and aesthetics after cleaning, possibly a little glossy for some tastes.

Well the microfibre and warm water got most of it, might get some Perl though I use autoglym leather cleaner for the seats but the plastics will need some attention good to know you canuse it as a tyre dressing too

I used it on my tyres straight out the bottle 1st time then just top it up every wash with the watered down 3 to 1, great results

If its on trim & leather use an appropriately diluted APC (all purpose cleaner) like koch chemie green star or bilt hamber surfex hd.
Both will sort it no problems.

Most auto car care brands do something - auto finesse have one called 'total' which Is a dedicated cleaner, and 'spritz' which is an interior detail spray which also has some UV protection and anti static to prevent dust. Most importantly to me, it's a matte finish (not some glossy sticky crap)
I'll be trying EZ car care's interior cleaner soon so will review back. |

If it came out of the factory matt finish, that’s the way it should stay - as far as possible.
Hate that cheap-looking, shiny, tacky stuff some sellers slather all over everything to ‘refresh’ the interior - way to ruin an otherwise decent car - yuk!
