cleaning the center console's black shiny plastic
So this weekend I used some soft scrub to clean a lot of the leather in my car then went over it with meguiars leather conditioner.
When i got to the center console i noticed the soft scrub wouldn't clean up and shine the black plastic that goes from the ashtray all the way down to my lexus logo behind my shifter. I was going to go to plastix but i'm pretty sure that's too strong of an abrasive.
Any recommendations on good product that can remove scratches and restore the original shine of this now dull plastic? is plastix what I want to use?
Thanks,
Joe

Soft Scrub is loaded with abrasives that are perfect for cleaning your sinks, etc. NOT your leather of plastic! Where did you get the idea to clean anything in your car with Soft Scrub? I use the Lexus (OEM) brand cleaner & Conditioner.
DO NOT use Soft Scrub on your plastics ... you might as well take sandpaper to them. You might as well use sandpaper ... Try using 303 Aerospace on it.
BTW, Plastix is for cleaning/polishing clear plastics ... not the center console.
Please search the forums (here and at other sites) before you do significant damage to your interior.

ive actually heard soft scrub works great on leather.. when i was in the ls forums... there were guys that used it on their ls400's and it came out great. ... and for the center console.. maybe use "back to Black" the black restore thing?

Sorry ... but I would never use an abrasive kitchen cleaner on fine leather. My seats would have to be pretty well trashed before I would try anything like this.
What's next ... using fully strength bleach on your carpets?
