    Duct Tape great for removing lint (on fabric around doors and headliners.)

    Like $.89 at Home Depot and work great for tire and trim dressings.

    Exactly what I was going to post!! I get them at Menards (if you have one in your area) for $0.50 each.

    They are great for tires, applying sealant/wax/coatings to wheels that have multiple spokes, plastic and rubber protectants to window trim or just any hard to reach area.

    Sprayway glass cleaner, Woolite (original) & water to clean leather. Both cheap, work better than most high dollar stuff, and go a long way.

    Stoner's More Shine.....works on tires, wheelwells, black plastic textured trim (chin spoiler, mud flaps), engine compartments. One product with multiple uses.

    Woolite is a good one. Never tried it on leather, but I use Woolite for dark.colors on canvas convertible tops. Works great.
