Default Limited choices .. help needed.

Hi ,


i've went to look for products that i can use for my IS interior,and i've found some of what you guys talk about and i'm wondering which is the best.

first,

i want something for the Leather, i found Meguair's gold class cleaner and conditioner(in 1 bottle?! .. and available as a spray too), and Meguair's rich leather Aloe cleaner and conditioner (2 seperate bottles).... and Lexol Leather conditioner ,, no Zaino .

if you think the Meguair's gold class are better how is it used since it's a C/C in one bottle?


then there is the dashboard

i've found 303 Aerospace protectant and armorall.
those Black area's on the dashboard that look like rubber.will 303 aerospace protectant will be good for it?

and the silver trim,
somehow i got a big scratch on it and it's really annoying,

i read about scratchX and i found it but it's for exterior paint? .. or it doesn't matter?

Thanks.

You can't go wrong using 303 Aerospace protectant on your dash and plastic trim. It provides a great look and does not leave the surface oily as some products do.

Your leather has a clear coat on it for protection. I use the Meg’s Pro line leather C/C and the products you mentioned are all good just depends which one you like.
If you have the perforated holes on the seat and the seat back I like to use Meg’s C/C wipes in the canister this way I do not plug the holes with a cream type C/C which can take the better part of an hour for perf hole clean out.

I believe that the console is also clear coated and I would try the Scratch-X. I have used Scratch-X on wood trim and it worked great. Do a test area first. If you can get Plexus for plastic use this stuff on your speedo cluster, instrument panel, wood trim, this shifter area.

Thanks all ,, i'll get the 303 for sure.

and i will get the Meguair's C/C (Spray) ,, but how do i use it?
should i clean before with a moist towel before applying?,, cause the leather in some area's is really dirty .
and does it work like any other conditioner? cause the temp get's really hot in here and i want best protection i can have.
