Chemical Guys Total Interior Cleaner & Protectant, Cleans & Protects Leather, Vinyl, Plastic, Rubber & Glass Streak-Free Finish for Cars, Trucks, SUVs, RVs & More – 16 oz

Very nice look and perfect “sheen”..
I’ve been an avid detailer for 30 years. And I do love the chemicals aspect of it. I’ve tried many products, and the vast majority of them aren’t very good. Mind you, I was starting out detailing back in the 80’s, when you had a VERY limited amount of products to rely on (And yes, I remember the very first days of Armor-All when it would CRACK your dash.. Those days are, of course, long gone.But I have been a big fan of Chemical Guy’s products, and have written many reviews on here about their other products.This Total Interior, I have to say, has met or exceeded my expectations.Tip and note: Always wear nitrile type gloves whenever using any chemicals for detailing, repair, etc A garage isn’t complete without nitrile gloves and an air compressor.. Enough on that.First off, they say you can use it on glass, and this would replace a lot of other cleaners and protectants, I’m not sure I would use anything to clean glass other than Invisible Glass. I’ve tried them all, and to me, Invisible Glass is my go-to and ONLY glass cleaner.Secondly, this DOES have a UV protectant in it, which of course, led me to purchase this. I’ve said on here before that if you are going to take the time to detail, and make the effort, you should not waste your time with products (Especially interior products) that don’t protect the interior from UV damage.. The sun is a killer on leather and plastic.. (And paint, over time).. So if you’re going to use any products on your interior make sure they have UV protectants.Thirdly, they say you can use this on Leather. I for one, after working with it, probably wouldn’t use it on my leather, I prefer some other products for that, and yes, don’t bother using ANY leather treatment unless it has a UV protectant in it, or at least follow it up with something that DOES have a UV protectant. I personally wouldn’t use this on my leather. I would use Chemical Guys’ Sprayable Leather Cleaner and Conditioner (no UV protectant), and then follow it with Klasse Interior as the Klasse has a UV protectant. The Klasse is also a water based formula (The original was oil based) and it also helps to tighten the leather a bit too.. Those two in combination make a nice look.What’s nice about this Total Interior Cleaner Protectant (TICP) is the way it goes on. You want to use a fairly deep piled Microfiber cloth to apply it. Pre wet the cloth with distilled water in a spray bottle.Spray the TICP generously on the interior doors and plastics. It works especially well cleaning off your armrests and control modules for windows, door locks. I would generously spray it on the door panels and work it in, but I would not spray it directly on my speaker grills or into the control buttons, you want to work around that. For those areas, after you do the general door panels, or interior, and then come back and spray on your towel, and then hit the specific areas.For the front dash, and the LCD screen, I sprayed onto my pre moistened towel, worked it in nicely, then I quickly grabbed another microfiber towel that didn’t have a “pile” on it. Almost like those microfiber dishtowels. The reason why is when you go for that quick buff (And just a quick buff, that’s all you need) you can and will create some static.. And when you create that static you’ll break off peach fuzz off a piled microfiber cloth and it may stick due to the static. So use a microfiber towel with no pile on it and quickly buff it, you don’t need much, this product is “hot” and dries fairly quickly, a couple swipes, that’s it.I did get the baby oil scent, and it’s reminiscent of that, but not too strong or overdone. A nice fragrance. It comes in a couple other scents.The final look is very nice, it’s not a shine or a heavy sheen, it’s in between the OEM flat look (When you first purchase a new car) and a light satin. Just enough sheen to spruce up the interior, but not like a basted turkey that looks greasy or oily. Just right.

Well priced and very easy to use works great

Keeps all interior clean and sanatized
