I have tried a few cleaning products from the shelves:

-Autoglym (Interior Shampoo, Vinyl & Rubber Care, Leather Care Products)
-Meguiars (Quik Interior Detailer, Leather Cleaner & Conditioner)
-GoClean (Interior Cleaner)
-Sonax (Dashboard Cleaner Matte Finish, Leather Foam)

Now the only cleaners that I did enjoy using was the Sonax line... Amazing results, however I'm not settled yet and want to try other car care brands. Really looking at Detailers Pride interior products and possibly Chemical Guys. Is there anything that you guys can recommend or say with the above two brands?

Thanks guys :)

Welcome to Autopia Kyle!

2 products I highly recommend you trying:

HD Total cleaner
HD Protect

Both products are extremely safe to use on your interior including leather. Protect leaves the surface smooth & supple, but not greasy.
 
 
I agree with the two up above. I like the DP interior cleaner followed by DP protectant on plastic and rubber. I have not used DP leather conditioner but I hear good things about it. You could give it a try.
 
I use Blackfire interior cleaner once/month, very good water based cleaner safe for all interior materials..
Follow it up with Blackfire interior protectant, it does a good job on protection and I don't need more than a damp towel for weekly cleaning..

Joined the forums not to long ago and already love it! Thank you all for such great feedback! Will give a go to DP, Blackfire and possibly Ultima.. Heard so many great things about DP so I'll try it first..

Would it make sense to clean and condition leather and then put some protectant on it? Or would you guys suggest not doing that?
 
Flame Suit On.... Has anyone tried "Tuff Stuff" All purpose interior Cleaner in aerosal form ? Seems to clean my steering wheel very well. followed by a leather conditioner
 
As of late I've been using folex on cloth and carpet (actually been using that for a few years) and HD Total on the hard materials
 
silver2kw, I've read pretty good reviews about Tuff Stuff so I bought a can the other day to use on my cream colored interior. Haven't gotten around to it yet but would be interested to hear from folks who have tried it. My interior is cloth, FWIW.
 
Tuf Stuff has served me well for over 15 years on MANY trashed cars. My own included when buying them used. Works awesome and seems to be safe on most surfaces despite being labeled as carpet cleaner.
 
dcjredline, man I was hoping someone like you would come along. Now I won't be concerned about dissolving the seats or dying a horrible death. Looking forward to trying this stuff. Thanks.
 
I bought a really beat up 198something Dodge Colt HB in like 1990, I literally sprayed the whole dash, seats, console, everything with it and wiped it up with a terry towel. Couple things I personally would keep it away from are the white letters on buttons&stalks and the Nav screens and the like. Its perfect for heavily soiled cup holders dashes and door panels along with cloth seats and carpeting. Just used some this weekend on a 2004 Camry! Love it.

^^^ This or the Sonax products for general clean up/dusting of the interior. HD Total has enough cleaning power for a light-duty clean up under the hood and leaving everything looking "just right".

Sure, Folex is a classic in terms of upholstery/carpets.
 
I've been using Tuff Stuff aerosal can for 10 + years but now that I'm into the world of detailing thought it wouldn't be an approved or super safe way to clean since you can buy it at Walmart. Its amazing though but only on non dyed leather. I used it on my leather couch at home and it took some dye off. in the car on black leather no problem.
Cloth seats (fantastic) carpet (great) Steering Wheel ( mine is brown and some dye came off i think - fwiw Chevrolet leather
