Best to clean/"care for" MB TEX
 
Went to the MB dealer to buy the recommended MB "Interior Care". No luck. They recommended Lexol "Leather care"?? Didn't sound right to me. Is this really the thing to use?

Or, do I just use a bit of Dawn in water?

I'm new to MB TEX after many years of leather so, any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Griot's Garage products come highly recommmended.

I use Einzett Interior cleaner. MBTex is really hunt a very nice textured vinyl. You can also use 303 protectant

303 Aerospace is great but not readily available in stores. I've used Mother's VLR (Vinyl, Leather, Rubber) spray with good results, plus you can use that stuff on the few real leather items too (steering wheel, shifter cover). I bought the Einszett vinyl spray but haven't had a chance to try it yet. These products work as sunscreens for the interior as UV light is vinyl's biggest enemy (MB Tex is vinyl).

All good options. I have also used Meguiers Natural Shine protectant with nice results.

I use a small sponge to apply and a terry cloth towel to remove an extra.

I have been using a diluted Sonus cleaner for my interiors, but recently started trying 1Z Einszett Cockpit Premium, and it's actually nice. It performs a more thorough cleaning over my diluted Sonus cleaner which is more of a touch-up solution. One thing I don't like is it, to me, feels like it leaves a slight residue, so at least on the seats I've taken to following the 1Z with my Sonus cleaner to ensure a perfectly clean surface.

Second this, been using Griot's on all my cars.
Haven't used anything for interior care yet but have been using their exterior products.
