Reddit reviews Meguiar’s G13616SP Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner, 16 Fluid Ounces

I recently picked up some Meguiar’s Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner for like $5 at Walmart, based on the Wirecutter’s recommendation. It works great. I had a dashboard that had picked up a lot of dust and wouldn't really wipe clean because the surface is kind of sticky, and now it looks brand new.

I agree with Baconzjews11, you can't fix them. You can darken them with Meguiars Quik interior detailer.

The most you will probably hear here is don't use Armor All cleaners for the surfaces (do more harm than good and leave a bright sheen) and visit /r/autodetailing.

These are just items I have used personally and would recommend:
Best interior cleaner I have found is Meguiar's Interior Cleaner with some microfiber towels.

Haven't had to deal with anything for anti-fogging, but for windows I use Stoner's Invisible Glass. It's a little too good in my opinion, now I have to figure out how to fix 6 little nicks in my windshield I wouldn't have noticed otherwise...

Been using it on my leatherette seats and seems to be doing the trick.

I use Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer and it does an amazing job. Plus you can buy it at Walmart, at least around me.

Edit: I always follow up with Meguiars Natural Shine on the plastic. I find it helps it not look so shitty. I hate that plastidip finish they used for the plastic.

I am a clean person but the interior of my '17 CX-5 gets filled with dust and fingerprints every day. Not good for an OCD person :P
I kept a microfiber cloth in the car to wipe stuff off but I think it put swirls/scratches in the piano gloss black plastic trim so I stopped using it.

I got some Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer though. Says it should it be safe to use on all the surfaces, but what do you guys think?

okay so like the comment below 303 is simple and easy. I don"t use it much as its not readily available here in Toronto.

Things i do use:

For the dash board and any plastic inside the car i use:

OR

For the carpets i do 2 thing when i am in a hurry ill use:

https://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Wax-50572-Rubber-Cleaner/dp/B00PKE6NNY/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1487704985&sr=8-12&keywords=turtle+wax+interior+cleaner

Just spray some on the carpet and after a quick vacuum then do a good vacuum job this can take like 30 mins once you get the hang of it.

when i have time i use:

https://www.amazon.com/BISSELL-1400B-Multi-Purpose-Portable-Cleaner/dp/B0016HF5GK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487705069&sr=8-2&keywords=bissell+little+green

The second method is simple just follow the instructions it came with and this item usually goes on sale there are better ones that keep the water heated.

They also both give the car a nice smell after cleaning i don't have leather seats so i can say much about it.

as for windows there 2 steps i do as well:

I use

https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Glass-Premium-Cleaner-91164/dp/B0007OWD2M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487705440&sr=8-2&keywords=invisible+glass

Then polish the exterior and where is no tint with

The second step is a bit tedious so if you are not comfortable stick with step 1.

The thing that also really good to have is good clothes for cleaning the more the better Micro fibre cloth's are the best.

and for glass:

After wiping the class with step one and then its dry i usually just follow up with a dry microfiber cloth to pick up any little dirt i left behind.

If i left anything behind let me know ill make a full post once summer comes around with maybe a video of sorts but there is alot of information also to r/autodetailing wiki post and sorry for the format if its not up to standards this is my first long post.

Nice ride. I myself have a 2015 Mazda 3 GT. I use Lexol for cleaning and conditiong (protecting) leather. Just use some TRC microfiber towels to clean the leather and the rest of the interior. For the dash, I just use Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer and D101 APC. It doesn't leave a shiny residue on the dash. I use those two for almost everything on the interior.

Meguiars interior wipes or the spray is what I normally use on my truck, my car, and my girlfriends car. Work great, good smell when spraying^^^^^DoesntOverwhelm, I usually spray the rag. Unless it’s bad enough to need a soak.


Edit: The wipes work fantastically on the dash

I personally use this on my car to get those out:

You want a non-rinse all-purpose cleaner/surfactant. Folex is one, Meguiars D101 is another.

Apply a bit, agitate with a soft upholstery brush, wipe up with a microfiber cloth.

Note: The D101 is a professional product which you dilute for use. If you want a ready-to-use version, try this, but you've just given up your ability to alter the dilution ratio. At 4:1, this stuff is a good tire cleaner and all around "clean anything that's not paint" cleaner. At 10:1 it's an interior cleaner. That big bottle will last you a long time.

For wheels you can literally just use soap and a seperate rag that will never touch the paint, or wheel woolies followed by a rag.

You said there wasn't anything on there for Wheels or Interior, but here's the recommended stuff from the wiki:

Hot Rims Wheel & Tire Cleaner

Quik Interior Detailer

Not what I use personally, but just to prove the point a lot of information can be found from the wiki.

If you plan on using tire shine, use something that doesn't contain silicon and i would recommend a gel dressing over spray on shines.

Me too!!!! It's so annoying. It doesn't take it all out, but I have good luck with this product.

• I love clean things and I want to pickup the CX-5 branded all weather floor mats and cargo tray. Is there a better option?
  
  I have the Weather Tech mats and they're awesome.
  
  
  
• When cleaning the inside I planned to only use a microfiber cloth and/or a slightly damp with warm water microfiber. Is there a better way?
  
  I keep a microfiber towel in the glove box for quick wipe downs, but every few weeks or so, I'll use Meguiar's to clean the interior.
  
  
  
• Are there any accessories I might not know about that are must haves?
  
  I have a jump starter just in case anything went wrong! Beyond that, hmm... I'm not entirely sure. I have done some light modding to my CX-5, but nothing that are like, "OH MAN, GET THIS!"

what do you think about Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer? i really don't like glossy/oily surfaces on my interior, unless they are made that way.

how would you compare APC to it, if you have used the Quik?

Sounds (smells?) like they're using an interior detailer, similar to Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner.

Hi, beginner here. The dash on my '08 Sonata is looking a bit sad and faded (pic here, ignore shadows and camera artifacts), and I was hoping to clean and restore it.

Would a combination of Megs Quick Interior Detailer (which I already have), plus 303 Aerospace work well? I also have Simple Green if that's better, but not sure what dilution ratio would work well. Thanks!

also, a few weeks ago i bought meguiars quick interior detailer cleaner but it didnt really help. it was this http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G13616-Interior-Detailer-Cleaner/dp/B000AMLWH8/ref=sr_1_4?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1409631434&sr=1-4&keywords=meguiars+quick+detailer#cm_cr_dpwidget

Agreed! Go easy on the instrument cluster by starting with something like Meg's QID, if that doesnt work you can probably go as aggressive as CG AllClean+ or any other APC with an interior dilution but that's about as far as I would go.

Unfortunately the instrument cluster plastic tends to etch from chemicals and scratch pretty easily. Anyone have experience using a PlastX or something similar to get it back in check?
