Default Clean interier

I had my bucket seats [black] recovered this year with the brand that PY sold.
I use to clean the seats with ARMORAL.
What's the best to clean the new seats with? They get dusty.

Armourall will take the plastiiciser out of the vinyl and make the vinly stuff and prone to crack. I would just use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean them.

Must be why for years the bucket seats felt and looked [Plasticy] as compared to the new seat covers, and they were cracking.

Damp warm cotton cloth works great for dust off.
For a deep clean I always use a 50/50 mix of Simple Green on a damp warm cloth and a small soft bristle brush to get down into the pleats.
Been using it since I put the seats in (1995) and there as soft as ever...




I wouldn't use ArmorAll to wipe a dogs a$$
Total greasy, harmful, junk.

I second the simple green recommendation and the armorall sentiment. Irgoatmike

For just dust , I use warm water & a mild soap. & rinse with warm water. If I have any thing that need to actually be cleaned because of something spilled on it I use my orange pumice hand cleaner with hot water to help get it in the dirty areas & then wipe it off with just more hot water. The pumice in the hand cleaner will remove almost anything in or on your interior parts & also leave it smelling very nice.
