I agree. I clean and oil/condition my leather seats at least a few times a year.
 






Depending on the condition of your paint it may be as simple as a coat of wax or two or it may need to be compounded polished and wax to remove swirls and oxidation

I concur with Rick- but I'm a Meg's guy too.

If anyone is looking for a good long-lasting polymer wax that doesn't turn your textured trim white, Meg's now has a product called "Ultimate Liquid Wax" which works awesomely... :thumbsup:

For seats, I like the Meg's Gold Class Conditioner. They also offer it in a gel that doesn't leave white crapola in the perforations or stitching.

Don't forget to clean and condition your leather wrapped steering wheels too!
 






I like Meguiars products. This is the wax I use: http://www.meguiarsdirect.com/product_detail.asp?T1=MEG+G12718

And this is the Interior product I use for the dash, console etc.. Doesn't leave a greasy appearance. Leaves it looking clean, and new.... http://www.meguiarsdirect.com/detail/MEG+G13616

I haven't used water on my Dart since I painted it. I just use this http://www.meguiarsdirect.com/detail/MEG+G14422 between races: and wax jobs.

The paint looks deep and rich.

That is what I was looking for.. People describe materials that they use to take the best care of the X :)
 






Well I don't know what products are available to you overseas, but for my interior cleaning, I use Tuff Stuff and swear by it. Its been around forever and really brings a nice clean, appearance to your dash, door panels, rubber floormats, etc. Just make sure you test it out first though because that stuff is pretty strong at times.

As for tires and rims, I have been using Eagle One products and I am astonished at the results. Considerably cheap but amazing results.
