Question Those with Nuluxe

My understanding is that Nuluxe is a vinyl product. So, do y'all use the same product (cleaner and/or protectant) for all interior parts (seats, dash, etc.)?

One of these days this crappy weather will end and I really look forward to spending some time cleaning my car.

So far, I've just used a damp micro-fiber cloth to wipe them down. Mine are black, so they don't show much, though.

Lexol Vinyl cleaner works great. I have both the spray and wipes. I keep the wipes inside my car just in case and use the spray if I'm cleaning the whole interior.

I've been using Einszett Cockpit Premium which cleans them pretty well, but my seats usually aren't visibly soiled. I'm not sure what color your interior is but mine is red and cockpit premium leaves a nice matte finish and doesn't leave behind a greasy film which is most important.

As for the smell its definitely interesting, not bad at all just different. Almost reminds me of lemon pine-sol, personally i like it.

I bought a small bottle of aerospace 303 to compare the results because i've been hearing good things about it.

Thanks for the input. My interior is light gray, so I just want to make sure I have the right product(s) to keep it in top shape. I'm borderline obsessive with keeping my car clean. This is my first non leather interior in quite some time so I'm unfamiliar with vinyl care products.
