I don't know too much about Griot's or Eagle One products, though if properly done your exterior sounds good. I would skip Turtle Wax clay and grab a Mother's or Meguiar's clay kit.



I really don't like Armorall products. That is not to say that you shouldn't use them but I would strongly recommend a different product line of leather care products. Meg's Gold Class or Zymol come to mind. Ozium and Meg's Odor Eliminator seem to be the best for interior odors.
