interior cleaners.
hello!
i need to buy some good interior cleaners to maintain my interior. was going to by the OEM BMW cleaners as i'd heard they help maintain the 'new car smell' and keep things fresh. What do you guys think of these? Also what about for the leather seats? anything in particular you all like? |

Einzett cockpit premium and leather masters for leather. I've tried more products than I can possibly name, and those two are the best I've used.

I use chemical guys leather cleaner and conditioner, they are two separate products. I like how good it cleans my steering wheel and shift knob, also works well on my alcantara shift boot.

+1 for the Einzett Cockpit Premium. Gregthegr8 turned me on to that stuff a while back. It works well on my Sensatec and it smells pretty good, too.

Also, be sure to wipe off any excess from the 303 if you plan on going this route, as it doesn't tend to evaporate and may leave an unattractive film that can transfer to clothing. |

thank you for your input so far everyone!
i don't think i want the 303 stuff....because (A) i don't like shiny things and i've read it leaves a 'glaze' on top and (B) as CheshireCat suggested...it's a protectant more than a cleaner right? |

303 will aid in wiping away dirt, but simply because it's water-based and nothing more. It does not have any active detergents. Honestly, I strongly recommend it, even if you just use it for the UV protection properties on areas like the dash. |

The real culprit to blame is mb135is, who turned us all onto the cockpit premium, just to spite us, then seemingly sold his car leaving us high and dry and smelling like pine sol. |

IEDEI keeps clicking on "buy it again" to no avail.
I'm with you, don't like the smell, but it does work well I think. Pretty sure mb135is sold his car a couple months ago to a family member and was getting an old e46. |

I guess he stunk up his interior to the point of not being able to stand it anymore!
