I can keep my interior clean, but only for short periods of time, before dust and stuff begins to collect on the dash and console. I think this may be from previous use of Armor-All on EVERYTHING, that used to look good before you touched it, and it made everything oily. I haven't used any recently, and I was wondering how I could remove whats left of the Armor-All from everything, and give my dash and console that fresh new look, I'm tired of the glistening oily look. Someone told me alcohol will make all of the residue reside, but I may run the risk of "bleaching" the color out of the dash... I have no Idea.

How do you make your / your customers interiors have that stock, fresh, matte look again?

Edit: If there is no solution, I will continue to use the Armor-All, and keep it shiny for lack of a better idea...
 
6 parts water to 1 part Woolite to clean, or if you need stronger you could use a diluted APC. Meg's Interior QD is nice for light maintenance, but you can use any of the matte dressings available online, such as VRT, Natural Look, etc.
 
Pick up some Meguiars #40. It is a cleaner and protectant for rubber vinyl and plastic. It'lll remove the armor all, clean any other stains, protect and it is just a tad shinier than the original just to let you know its protecting. Most auto stores have this product. If you will be buying online, I suggest doing the woolite method and top with Poorboys Natural Look. In between adding dressings, I have a miniture California Car Duster type duster to remove any dirt or dust. Hope this helped.

Ditto that! #40 is one of the better Meg's products IMO. Give it a shot -you'll like it.
 
I find shiny dressings will protect, but attract dust like mad. When dusting, you don't need anything other than a mf.
I use muted dressings, a local one, but it is just a little shinier than Poorboy's Natural Look. I don't find dust sticks there.
 
For just dusting, use a "tack cloth"...you can wipe down the entire interior except the glass.....they are cheap, found in paint departments of just about any store
 
What about going over your interior with the magic eraser and then top with your choice of dressing?
