    Favorite Interior cleaning tool

    Hi folks, i'm on the lookout for some kind of cleaning tool for my car interior which is mostly faux leather and vinyl with some upholstery.

    I've been looking at a scrub ninja copycat and the Geist Leather and Textile bush.

    Both of these products are supposed to be safe for all interior cleaning excluding screens, trims etc of course.

    I think the brush is more my style..

    I would get the scrub ninja 5x3 pad. The material is same as the VLB brush but it being a sponge makes it more pliable.

    There not that expensive so I would just get the real ones.

    They will blow that Geist brush out the water.

    Glad you brought this up. I love this brush so much for exactly what were referring to that I bought 2 more!

    Amazon.com

    They make a nylon Bristol for vinyl cleaning also. There mainly designed for cleaning upholster or carpet but so are most brushes. These just work well for many applications. There great for tamping out stained headboards or delicate cloth.

    The site i order from doesn't have autofiber but detail popo's scrub sushi. They make good products. I'm not totally sure if it's the same material as the scrub ninja.

    I was thinking the scrubber would be more aggressive. Not sure if i need that...

    Thanks

    I dunno how anyone could like that little scrubber. I bought 1 and IMO it’s waaay too aggressive. I chucked it.

    [notice how Black that green towel is. I had the same thing happen to me and it wasn’t dirt]

    Re: Favorite Interior cleaning tool

    That's what i'm wondering about. Apparently synthetic leather has some kind of clear coat. I have softex from Toyota.

    What's interesting is that I found on a Toyota site that the recommended interior cleaner is alcohol based. I immediately thought of the relatively new interior detailer from Gyeon.

    No not too aggressive and you will probably be grossed out on how clean your steering wheel becomes

    No that clear coat is tough and you should be good. I wouldn’t use on old or aniline leathers. If that scrubber is removing dye you got bigger problems.
