Does a light cleaning remove interior protectants?
A couple of weeks ago, I treated my car's dash and doors with 303 and the leather seats with OPP. Last weekend, I did a light interior cleaning with a damp MF towel (just water, no cleaners). Do I need to reapply the protectants or will they survive a wipedown with water?

After a couple of weeks I would go ahead and reapply the protectants anyway.

It will remove the protectant for the most part. Even just water.

Definitely depends on the product but with 303 I would go ahead and reapply it.

Rasky, what interior protectants might stand up to a damp water wipedown?

Re: Does a light cleaning remove interior protectants?
Hmm, then it sounds like interior protectant is a good candidate for gallon-sized purchases. Maybe I'll try going with OPP for the dash and trim too since 303 gets expensive.
Or would it be better for me to use a dry MF for light dusting and leave the wet wipedowns for monthly cleanings? I keep my car pretty clean, so it's generally just a little bit of dust I'm taking off. I would do the skin contact areas (steering wheel, armrests, etc.) with a wet wipedown and reapply protectant more often.

I cant speak for Rasky,
But Meguiars Ultimate Protectant will last for months on an interior.
