I avoid using any chemicals on the inside of all my cars. Usually just a damp microfiber to pick up dust and wipe down the seats. For windows it is usually some IPA (isopropyl alcohol, not Imperial Pale Ale), one cloth to clean, another to wipe/dry.

I zealously avoid anything like Armorall or other surface treatments. I do not particularly like the shine or the sometimes greasy feel they leave behind. Plus, the chemicals tend to outgas when the interior gets hot, and I hate that damn hazy film outgassing leaves on the interior glass.

great post, agree with all. also so much snake oil when it comes to car cleaning products, most of which are nothing special.
