Hey everyone I'm new here and didn't see a thread with this topic so hopefylly I'm not repeating one. Hubby and I picked up a stock (ok, nearly stock. Cut rear fenders and hole cut for radio..) 75 ranger for my daily driver. It's been sitting in a shop for 10 years (only 500 miles on it in that time) and it's in desperate need of a cleaning. All the interior is original and in REALLY good shape. Anyone have any recomendions for what to clean the dash, trim and seats with? I'm afriad to just pick up some Armorall and go to town... Mainly I just need something to get the 10 year old dust off and maybe protect from UV rays. Since this is our 'nice' rig (79 bronco 'toy' and 79 'work' truck don't count ;)) I'd like to keep it looking that way! Thanks!

(Armor All isn't really a cleaner, and will just put a greasy film on TOP of the dirt.)

I use an aerosol called Tuff Stuff on all our cars and it works great. Just strong enough to get the grime, but won't damage anything. Doesn't stink or leave a residue.

You can find it at most major auto supply stores (Pep Boys, at al) and I think I've seen it at Target as well.
