Default Cleaning Interior

With such a nice interior in the sportback what should I use to clean the different parts? I prefer to use items with less harsh chemicals. There are different materials so I want to clean the aluminum trim, leather seats, and various plastics.

I use Adam’s interior detailer for the steering wheel, shifter, seats, door panels and the plastic trim around the door sills. The interior detailer is not harsh and doesn’t have a strong smell to it. I really like and use the whole Adam’s line, but I have a local dealer here so it is really easy to pick up product when needed vs ordering it online. Another thing I like about Adams is that he provides a lot of videos explaining exactly how to use the products and there is a forum on his site that allows users to discuss tips and expierences on detailing. He really seems to have a product for everything detailing related. The website is www.adamspolishes.com.

2 premium microfiber towels. One rinsed in warm water to wipe the surface you're cleaning and the other dry one to dry the surface you've just cleaned. Unless you've spilled something it is very rare that you need a "cleaner" to get any surface clean. If for some reason you need to use a chemical of some sort to clean a particular surface may I suggest you look at Sonax products. Made in Germany for your German made car.

You can find them on Amazon also.

I agree with heisnuts. Adam's Polishes all the way - inside & out.

Thanks for the input I have had the car for a month now and it’s geeting a little dirty. It’s also been raining a lot in the Bay Area so it will need a wash also.
