Default Interior Cleaning Tips

New owner of a 2015 IS 250 F-Sport with the red nuluxe seats. Any tips on keeping the whole interior looking new? Seats, dash, mats

I've been using this forum now for a couple years and this product is highly recommended - I've been using it for a while now and its fantastic - Great UV protection

The mats (I assume you have carpet mats) should be taken out and vacuumed every once and a while (obviously), as far as treating them or shampooing them I'm not sure what to recommend --- I have weather tech floor mats in my IS and I love them

There are many different kinds of leather conditioners that you can use for the seats - some will provide a slippery finish which I'm not a fan of

Take a few minutes and scroll that Detailed Image website.. there are many reviews on different products

I use Lexol leather cleaner & conditioner (separate bottles). My Lexus dealer sells tons of Lexol, but you can buy it at Walmart.

Nuluxe is not leather. I don't know if anything is to be gained by using products specifically intended for leather. I would think you should be able to use just about anything that's made for vinyl/plastic. The only thing I would be careful about is a cleaners impact on the seat color.
