I have a black interior and wanted to know what I should use to keep my dash and the inside of the doors clean. With black the scuff marks are visable and that includes the backside of the front seats too. Are all these surfaces leather? I have tried leather conditioner and it leaves an uneven wet/dry look to it. The dash has an uneven shade to it. Maybe all the dashes do or maybe it's just mine. thanks

I use a very small amount of a mild soap in lukewarm water, dampen a soft lent free cloth and wipe clean. I will do the same to the leather seat but I will wipe dry and apply a leather conditioner.
I do not recommend using a leather conditioner on the dash nor door panels
and I never use Armor All on anything accept the tires.
Good Luck

thanks. I wish I had asked the question prior to using leather cleaner and conditioner on the doors and the back of the front seats.

It looks awful now. I guess the interior door handle is not leather...but rather a rubber material. The back of the front seats must be a "leatherette". I hope good old fashion soap and water can take it off.

Do not clean aggrasively just go over lightly with a damp cloth. In time the conditioner that you applied will come clean without any damage. If you do this today than wait for two weeks and do it again and if you have to wait two more weeks and do the same. You should only have to clean the interrior once a month or a couple of months.
Just use a small amount of a mild soap in water do not put straight soap on anything. The water should not be soapy. Do not rup!!!!!!! Just a light wipe. If you are to agrassive you can burn the material (dark spot) or you may lift some of the dye (light spot).
Everything should return to normal
Good Luck
