Best Car Interior Cleaning Products – Pro Picks for a Factory-Fresh Interior
Want a clean, fresh, and like-new interior? These are the best car interior cleaning products professional detailers rely on for amazing results.
Your car interior takes a beating from daily use—dust, dirt, food spills, pet hair, fingerprints, and odors can build up fast. The right products make all the difference when it comes to deep cleaning and protecting your interior surfaces.
In this guide, we’ll share the best car interior cleaning products for every surface—so you can restore that factory-fresh feel and keep your car looking its best.
Best All-Purpose Interior Cleaner
If you want one product that safely cleans virtually every interior surface, this is it. Complete Cabin Cleaner is designed for dashboards, door panels, center consoles, cup holders, plastics, vinyl, rubber, leather, screens, and more.
It removes dirt, grime, and odor-causing bacteria without leaving streaks or residue—perfect for both maintenance cleaning and deep interior detailing.
Best Scrubbing Tool for Plastics & Vinyl
For textured plastics, rubber, vinyl, and other durable interior surfaces, the Scrub Buddy Pad is a must-have. Pair it with Complete Cabin Cleaner to easily lift ground-in dirt from surfaces that are tough to clean with a towel alone.
These pads are safe on textured surfaces but should not be used on soft-touch plastics, screens, or glossy trim.
Best Interior Dressing
All Dressed Up (Diluted 4:1)
Once your interior surfaces are clean, All Dressed Up provides a factory-style matte finish on plastics, vinyl, rubber, and even leather. It restores a rich, OEM look—without the greasy shine that many dressings leave behind.
Use it on door panels, dash trim, and other areas where you want a subtle, professional appearance.
Best Towels for Interior Cleaning
Microfiber towels are essential for safely wiping down interior surfaces. The Everyday Microfiber Towels are perfect for use with Complete Cabin Cleaner and for final buffing after applying All Dressed Up.
Keep several on hand so you always have clean towels ready during your interior detail.
Best Air Freshener
After your interior is clean, finish the job with a subtle, long-lasting Air Freshie. Choose your favorite scent to give your freshly cleaned car that extra touch of freshness.
