So what products have been used with great results in the cleaning and maintaining of the interiors on FL cars?

I'm ready to jump into cleaning the interior of my car and just want to do it right. Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Pics of your interior are very much appreciated, too.

I would never use any cleaners on 60 y.o. vinyl, fabric or rubber. Just a vacuum cleaner and maintainance products like Armor-All. I redid the interior of my 60 Fury in the early 90s with NOS factory seat covers and drove it extensively ever since. The OE fabrics are said to be of poor quality that split around 50-70k. This is not the case if you take care of it. I made it a habit to soak the upholstery once or twice a year with Armor-All and the seats still look very good after 30 years.

I vacuumclean first, use microfiber cloths with mild soap water second and then Meguiars #40. Normally I do this once every season.

I use 303 protectant. It gives a clean look finish on vinyl, rubbers and plastics.
