  • What is a good product and method to clean interior plastic?

    I just bought a used car from an individual. The car is reasonably clean, but the plastic is dirty. It responded to Armor All Cleaning Wipes, but it was very slow going. What removes interior grime in a hurry? Thank you in advance.

    Firstly,

    Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

    For interior plastic, I would suggest M39 Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner. Then top this with Meguiar's M40 Vinyl and Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner. These two work awesome together!!

    Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner (#39)

      to mol. If the interior is that dirty I like usong the #39 first then use the #40. I think you will be very happy with this combo as Tim suggested.

        Welcome to MOL: Possibly also try APC.

            What kind of car is it?

            Is the plastic you refer to hard and shiny? Or is it flat and textured?

            What components are you talking about, door panels, the dash or the dashboard?

              Hey jayrob, welcome to MOL. Just in case you didn't know you can usually find #39 & #40 at O'Reilly's around here. If it's not in the car care section look around the body shop stuff.

              Also, if it is textured plastic your working on, you can use a soft to medium bristled brush with a little #39 to help loosen the grime.

                I usually use APC+ cut 10:1 on all interior plastics.
