Cleaning Door Panel Linings

Hi Guys

I have tried cleaning the inside of the doors (on the fake leather plastic) with various cleaning aids (Mr Sheen, fairy liguid solution etc) and cannot get them 'clean looking.'

The finish seems to look patchy and horrible.....any tips anyone?? MG

Maybe its a lazy solution but its one that works for me.I use foam upholstery cleaner for this , as I do for the actual upholstery and find that it works a treat . Leave it on for 15-20 seconds or so as it gives it a chance to lift the dirt out.I also use a microfibre cloth .Im sure there are dedicated cleaners for this task and undoubtedly someone here will direct you.I have the alpacca plastic trim so dirt is quite noticeable and bugs the bejaysus out of me.Love the colour though.hope this helps !

I found that Windowlene cleans them up nicely.
It seems to cut through that powedery "bloom" that appeared on early models. Don't know if they stiff suffer from the problem.
