Happened to me. The clear plastic on the clock seems "fogged" up for some reason, I tried using damp towels and to no avail, any other recommendations?

But yeah, I'd just use a static dust wipe to wipe out the top layer of dust first. Then use a damp microfiber towel to wipe everything, after that, you can apply 303 Aerospace if you wish.

I dont think it has any conditioning properties. I use it to remove general dirt buildup on the leather but for heavier cleaning and conditioning, I use other products to get the job done.

Someone else on this thread mentioned trying softscrub on their leather. Wouldn't recommend it. Will take the protective coating on the leather right off if you are not careful. For really dirty leather, I have used Woolite and water with a soft bristle brush sucessfully.

Soap, water and a cloth towel is the best way to go. Any other will leave your interior greasy or a bad residue after a while.
