+1 for the magic eraser. I use it a lot, and it works in some surprisingly tough spots.

I detail the interior of my car with the 1Z as well. It is great stuff. I apply it with a 2 inch interior/carpet brush on the random orbit. The 1Z with the random orbit will return the interior of the car to "like new" condition. This includes caked on dirt in the leather, and coffee spills, etc.

Good luck.

What kind of Random Orbit / 2" brush do you use in the interior?

I use the "UBER" ultra 2" (3"?) interior brush. It's a soft brush that works well with the 1Z. Use on leather, inside of doors or carpets. After it's clean (it will be clean), then finish with a protectant. I use leather conditioner on leather, and Aerospace 303 on everything else.

I don't know if you can get it through a board sponsor, but I have purchased from detailers domain(.com).

Highly recommend if you have the patience for using a random orbit and want your interior 100% like new. Good luck.

Thanks Mike. I just ordered the brush, 1Z and some other items for another car project this spring. I had honestly never heard / thought of using an orbiting brush on anything interior wise before, should prove interesting.

Good luck with it. Just go a little easy on the leather (maybe 2 or 3 on the random orbit) and light pressure. The machine will do the work. No need for #6 speed or any pressure.

You'll see immediately how well it works, then you'll end up doing the entire car...
