There has been some chat regarding interior products lately on here. I usually use UIG+ about every 4 months or so. Prior to that, I clean everything with APC, then wipe-down with DI water. Application of UIG+ takes a bit of time, as its kind of like a WOWA sealant, and I pretty much apply it to everything. I find over application can leave streaking and leave the surface uneven. So, when I apply it, it takes a while to apply it evenly.

I was looking for something light and easy to use in between applications of UIG+. Something that cleaned lightly, mainly dust, and left a hint of protection behind. I was using OptiClean and it does well at this job. But, I ran out of OptiClean.

I picked up Meg's Quick Interior Detailer locally, hoping it wasn't going to leave a greasy surface. The product says it leaves some protection and restores a new surface. I found it did just that. This product is anything but greasy, it actually evaporates pretty quickly. You'd be hard pressed to tell there was any "protection" on the surface, it leaves the surface looking new - just as described.

The sprayer is not too good, as it "misses a pump" every so often. This sprayer has no "stream" setting. Also, the scent of the product is of light alcohol and polymers. No artificial scent, but the smell is light and quickly gone. Overall, a great product to wipe down your interior with.

I've used this for quick wipe downs and no complaints. +1
 
I use this weekly on my ride. Also, every detail I do sees this product. I may use something with more bite first and then go over the area a second time with QID to leave that like new look. Cheap and effective!
 
I use Meg's QID and no complaints as well.
If I had to pick... I thought it had a hint of smell of vinegar which I am not too fond of.
 
I have a gallon of it and use it all the time. If there are any heavily soiled spots then it APC prior to QID but it does have some good cleaning abilities!

I didn't know it came in a gal. I go thru this stuff like crazy and just for my personal use. Is that from AG?
 
Weird about the smell. I have actually grown to like it. Use it frequently on our 2 cars.
 
Gary Dean's Detail Juice. Hands down best of the best Cheap as dirt once it's cut with distilled water and more uses then any one product in your line up
 
Love Meg's QID! I have plenty of strong stuff, but for my own cars I mainly need a very gentle and non greasy cleaner.

This stuff works great on navigation screens and virtually everything on the dash. Leaves a hint of gloss and a clean scent.

Best part is its a OTC product and $4 at the big box store. A great budget alternative for Einszett 1Z Cockpit.

Going to try it tomorrow and got it for that very reason. I needed a gentle cleaner for the LCD screen and controls in my SUV.
 
I use it a lot. I usually spray it on a microfiber sponge, wipe, then wipe off with a microfiber towel. I like that it can be used on all interior surfaces. I didn't know it came in gallons, I'll have to check that out.

Thanks Swanic!
 
I don't have the MSDS for it. I'm sure if you send him an email he would send one to you. They have to have one.
 
I have found Griot's Plastic Cleaner to work better than anything on any kind of clear plastic, like screens. It leaves behind a smooth anti-statit surface. Oddly enough, it says it removes fine scratches, but it's not a polish
