Best interior/dash cleaner... - Toyota Yaris Forums

PetersRedYaris · 10-19-2008, 02:20 AM

Just to sum up the lost thread. Ice Total interior care is the best shi% ever for the Yaris dash. It will leave a nice deep color with NO greasy residue. Just watch out for the valve on the bottle, it likes to give you a little surprise.

Pledge.

Thanks, been using different types and I didn't like how they made it look.

Armor-all original does it for me, it's not really greasy like it used to be and looks awesome.

Is the ICE stuff static-free? That's my only complaint with Armor-all... lint clings to it like white on rice.

Why yes it is...

I'm actually not a huge Turtle Wax brand fan, but the ICE total interior care is the absolute BEST dash treatment i've ever used. Not only on the Yaris either; I've done our Matrix, my wifes 06' Civic, and my Scion XB. It's awesome on all plastic, especially dark/black plastic.

Also, it lasts a loooong time between cleanings. And, one bottle has done 4 total car interiors and I still have 1/3 bottle left over.

Man, that reminds me... I bought some ICE total IC, but.... it's been sitting on the shelf by my front door for like 3 months now >.< I've got to get on that... I've been super NOT motivated due to the fact that I got SUPER door dinged on the passenger side (like 7" long!!!) and a frikkin' divot in the bumper from helping my boyfriend move (oh dear god, they totally didn't hear the end of that for a while) I've practically given up on trying to keep my car looking good! :(

Nope... its all about this right here!

I use Turtle Wax's leather/vinyl protectant. It smells nice and makes the interior look great!

Will these leave that nasty haze on the windshield after the car has been sitting in the sun? Took me the longest time to figure out my Armor All was causing this from the sun heating up the plastic and causing vapors from the Armor All to coat the windshield making it fog up easily. Now I just use a damp towel with water.

Pledge is recommended in the Toyota manual iirc
I use Meguiars natle shine, it doesn't leave the dash greasy or feeling ashy

+1 It even leaves it soft to touch but I REALLY HATE THAT CAP! Thats the only down side but it's whats inside that counts!

Black magic is the worst.

PaidTimeOff · 11-12-2008, 08:59 PM

303 aerospace protectant ftw!

The ICE total interior care is also good.

leasaunce · 11-13-2008, 09:41 AM

meguiars interior cleaner, not greasy at all! probably the nicest IMO! Just love meguiar's traditional scent!

bzinn 1 · 11-14-2008, 09:47 PM

i haven't use meguiar but i will give it a try, for those who about to buy Ice please don't waste your money on it, unless you want to get that little towel included.Ice Total is not that awesome, use the new Armor All original New Formula with no grease....I tried them both, and the only thing Ice good at is no static, but why should i care about that?
All i can tell you is, Ice make my Black Dash to not Black color i can see it when i applied to my dash, half of my dash will look like it's only 80% Black, At first i thought this is normal, and it's will go back to black, but ...nah. So i try Armor All..wow i can see black now.
Armor All make it look deep black, shiny and no grease, beside i hardly see dust on my dash that much like the old formula Armor all, so i'll go with Armor cheaper and look better.

Plexus is excellent plastic cleaner / protectant.
