Suggestion on Interior Detailing

Hi,

I have a black S560 which has been sitting in the garage for more than 3 months due to my busy travel schedule. I have already detailed the exterior and looking for some suggestions for the interior. The interior is Black Exclusive Nappa Leather along with Designo Black Piano Lacquer Wood. I know that I would need a soft brush to remove the dust in between the edges and a special wax for the seats. Also, not sure what to use for the Designo Black Piano Lacquer Wood on the steering wheel and middle of the dash. Please help me with recommendations if you have used any specific brand.
Thanks in advance,

For the interior (black) I use Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer, so far with good results and no oil shine. To get rid of dust, I use a shop compressor. Didn't do anything to the leather yet, but might look into Meguiars products too.
Anyhow, I try to keep my car clean as much I can, so cleaning is not an intensive job in my case.

"Leatherique" is a great two stage cleaner and conditioner for leather...
for lacquered wood, check out MA Carbon.com. They have a carbon gloss
cleaner which smells nice and work fabulously.

For leather you can look at something like gyeon leather shield or leather coat.
Wolfgang cockpit trim sealant works on most interior surfaces including leather.

You just need to wipe then down first with detail spray. If you car is just dusty a microfiber will do great at picking it up.

Ive tried pretty much everything, the best off the shelf product is meguires leather cleaner/conditioner spray. Leaves a non shiny clean look w/o being greasy. A quik wipe w a damp microfiber wrks wonders too.

Lots of good advice for leather.

For wood I always use. . . Pledge.
