What to clean dash and trim with ? (P.R.V. anyone?)

Anybody use P.R.V. cleaner for car interiors? (Premium Rubber and Vinyl)

The guy that parks next to me noticed I clean my car all the time and told me his parents used that stuff at their car cleaning business, he gave me a small sample, the stuff was amazing !! keeps interior clean for months as long as you dust every couple weeks, there's no shine and it's suppose to be the best for interior rubber & vinyl trim, (according to this guy...)

I'm hoping somebody knows where I can get this P.R.V. stuff, the guy said you could only order it in a huge industrial size barrel (??),

Otherwise, maybe somebody has comments on one of these Meguiars cleaners (which looks simliar)

I'd be interested in this too, I got blinded by armorall wipes on the dash.

I don't know what's "best", but I've always used Lexol Vinylex for the interior.

I've been eyeing Adam's Super VRT for exterior (e.g., tires).

I use the Meguiars vinyl and rubber cleaner. Love it. Works well and isn't shiny like armor-all.

VRT is excellent for tires and external black trims, not so much for interior. i really like meguiars quik interior detailer spray because it is only a cleaner. it does not leave any shine at all.

Hmm...I gotta look into this Meguiar cleaner. Does it leave any kind of slippery residue?

careful cause meguiars has several interior detailers and they are all very different. there is a natural shine and an extreme shine, both of which use strange chemicals and leave residue.

the one i have is called meguiars quik interior detailer cleaner and has some purple in the label. in the top corner there is a note saying non greasy improved cleaning action. at the bottom it says safely cleans ALL interior surfaces, restores and protects the original appearance. in the back it says, will not leave behind greasy appearance or feel, contains sunblocking agents. dont forget to shake it before spraying.

Good to know.

I know with my 2008 Tundra, the dashboard is of some special material that if you use the wrong cleaning product it will eat away at it.
