Hi,

2 weeks ago, I got myself my first Porsche (a base 2018 Boxster).

I have spent a countless amount of time looking at what cleaner to use for the interior (both on seats and general interior).
I have seen everything from 303 to Lexus to Leatherique...

Can someone please share once and for all what is a good, reasonable product that I should use for my seats and also a product for the general interior?

If it means anything, I have the partial leather seats (black with beige in middle) which are heated.

I've been using 303 Cleaner and 303 Protectant for years, and it's always done a great job for me.

Im using the gtech stuff that came with the car. They have products for all surfaces. So far so good.
I also like to use baby wipes for the brushed aluminum parts.

Hi. Thanks for response.

So you use 303 multi-surface Cleaner and 303 aerospace Protectant on leather seats + all interior surfaces?
Or the cleaner + protectant on leather seats, and just the cleaner on all other surfaces?

Hi. Thanks for response. Are you referring to the Gtech cleaner / degreaser? And you use this on leather seats + most of interior surfaces?

Both, 303 claims their products are safe for leather, and I've never had an issue with it.

Got it, so cleaner + protectant on seats and other interior surfaces. Thanks!

Remember that most all car leather has a urethane coating so special leather stuff is not usually useful and may actually clog the pinholes in the seat. If a drop of water beads on the surface and doesn't soak in, the surface is plastic. That said I use an Australian product designed for coated leather.
The 303 Protectant is great for the dash, etc. as it is not shiny. Just follow the instructions.
The 303 Fabric guard works well on the roof.

303 Cleaner/Protectant all the way. I use it (somewhat) religiously on the exterior plastic bits. Most look close to new after 25k miles. The stuff is to Armor All what Swissvax is to Turtle Wax.

Great! Thank you both, GregW & Viffermike.
Definitely went with the 303 + protectant!

Any info on that?
