Meguiars interior detailer with a microber cloth. Use it for all the interior.

I use Prima Slick (also applied with a high quality microfiber cloth) on all the wood bits in both my cars. I love the way it makes the wood feel!

I know lots of folks like Maguiars, Mothers, Zaino, etc,and I'm sure they are great. Look into Prima Car Care products. They are VERY easy to use, and the look it provides is awesome. Especially on Lexus paint.

BTW - I'm not afflicted with Prima, although I have come to know the owners over the past several years. I'm just a huge fan.

I find dusting it with a wool duster everyday more effective than using a MF wipe with QD of any sort. As long as nothing is trapped between the wool fibers and no liquid on the wood bits, then it works just fine. I pick wool as it has a large surface area when it is all fluffy and it doesn't exert much pressure when dusting

Similar to Eyezack87, I use a Swiffer Duster for dry dusting my dash, wood, and other interior areas. It has similar benefits to a wool duster, just disposable when soiled or dirty, and works in my rides as well as it does inside my home for the weekly dusting routine.

Original California Dash Duster....it's a treated shaggy brush made to pick up dust. Very quick to use and does a great job. I've had one for years. They are pretty readily available in most stores....if I recall around $10.

I use Meg's QID on all of the interior. It does a good job on the NAV screen too.

I use what's left from the dash and don't add more product.

I use 1Z cockpit premium with a soft MF towel on all interior surfaces. I like the finish and the smell
