I've been using OPC to clean the interior of my car (using OPP as my protectant) and am about to order some Opti-clean. Are there any advantages/disadvantages to using one over the other? I understand Opti-clean is supposed to leave some sort of protection, but everything I've read is a little vague on what it's protecting against (UV, abrasion, etc.).

hello, i might be wrong here, but isn't opti-clean only meant to be used on exterior surfaces only?
 
You can use it on the interior as well.

I've been using OPC on my interior as well, however, opti-clean looks impressive because it cleans(dries clear) AND protects. I think I'm going to try it. OPC would be better for heavy soiled interior panels, I would think.
 
Even though won't OC won't clean as effectively as OPC, it won't hurt for general light duty cleaning. ONR works good too.

OOC works really nice on any surface I can think of. It worked great on the interior with no streaking issues and a nice finish.

Corey, did OOC leave a finish on interior panels as if nothing was ever wiped on, or did it leave a matte finish?

It doesn't really add any gloss but I wouldn't call it a matte finish either. It pretty much just looks very clean and like nothing is there on the interior. It does leave something but I would say its more matte-semi-matte then glossy.

Check out the pictures in this review for an idea of how it looks. I think it's around picture 16 and beyond or something.
