I guess i am the only one who keeps a swiffer duster wand in my door pockets. I keep my cars so clean and when I do sell them people always comment how perfect the i interior is for its mileage. I sold a 2006 LS430 with 240,000 miles and people tell me its like it had only less than 1000 miles on her. Still smells like new.

I was really **** about my black one. I got a lot of detailing stuff. I even washed the car in garage when it was cold outside. Through the years the car only got washed by others less than 5 times. Part of it because the OB looked really nice when cleaned, part of it was I started to like detailing stuff. It got to a point when I was getting this one, I told the dealer to leave it as is when it gets unloaded from the truck. I took it home and un-wrapped everything myself. Six months or so later I started to lose interest. I don't seem to care anymore. I have not washed it myself for so many months. I found a decent handwash place and that is where I go every few weeks now.

I've been OCD about all 9 of my cars over the past 20 years. Always wash (2 bucket system) and detail interior weekly / bi-weekly. I get harassed all the time because my cars are always so clean.

Oh yeah...microfiber cloth in the trunk along with gloves and tire pressure monitor.

OCD,yes, on all my cars.

-have microfibers on each door pocket (4)
-small case with sprays: detailling, soap, water, wax in the trunk for birds dropping and mess.
-a dust brush in the trunk in case of dust when roof opened.
-sometime, a small bucket, microfiber in the trunk when taking long trip for bugs roadkill

I sometime clean the interior at night when out of town for work, i like the interior always clean.
Clean the interior filter every 2 months with compressed air to kept the vents clean

Obsessed ? yes. Treated ? no.

I hope you have good luck with it. California Dusters scare me too much to let one touch my car.

I'm OCD about my GS but I've always been this way. Not just with my car, but my house as well. The GS is my 13th vehicle and I always keep them clean w/ low miles. I keep a microfiber off to the side in my trunk. I'm so OCD I can't keep anything in my door pockets or anything. I don't keep anything out that's visible. Never had a drink (other than bottled water) in the car or any food. Weather Tech Floor Liners are my first purchase with each car. It's hard with kids, but my wife is on board. No snacks or juice cups in the car. I have a seat protector under the car seat and a seat back protector on the back of the passenger seat in front of my daughters seat. Having to have the seat back protector in my car gets to me as well, but it's better than her kicking the seat and her shoe prints!
