I couldn't really find the most appropriate place for this discussion, maybe there should be an Interior Maintenance room?

I'm just curious, what do you guys use to clean the interior of your M3? I was just going to use regular Windex + cloth but people are telling me there are better car cleaning kits I can use that won't damage anything. Any advice?
Cheers.

For the dash, steering wheel, glove box, and centre consoles, I use the ArmorAll Wipes from Canadian Tire.

For the floor and the trunk, I use a vaccuum.

I haven't really cleaned my windows.

Personally, I'm not a fan of ArmorAll, I find it leaves that sort of greasy film which attracts dust ad makes it worse later. Maybe the new ArmorAll products do that though, since I've never used it (although the used car dealer I bought the car from did).

Try 303 Aerospace Protectant for vinyl/plastic/leather etc. It's a great product that you can use on anything so it replaces the need of having to buy multiple products for multiple surfaces. It's also water based and doesn't attract dust like Meguiars or Armor All. It's also recommended by many detailers. Pick it up at Canadian Tire.

I am not a big fan of Armour All either
They attract dust like crazy
It is also a bad product to put on tires as it seems to
Break down the rubber
I am going to give the 303 Aerospace product

Thanks

Febreeze for cars actually makes your car smell like a new car. When people get in my 06 they think i've only had it for a month or so.

Thumbs up for 303! However, it seems like a "seasonal" product at Cdn Tire. It's in every store in the spring/summer but come winter it's harder to find. Remember to pick up a bottle in the fall so you won't miss it in the winter.
