Hello Everyone,
As I've said here before, my Niro is my first NEW car EVER. (I'm 55...owned a lot of cars but never bought one new before). So it's sort of my baby and I'm very pleased with it. (I have had it for about 3 months, 3000 miles, including a trip from ATL to NYC and back!) IN fact the only thing I don't LOVE about it is that I have to spend some amount of energy worrying about scratches and so on...LOL never really cared before!
Do y'all have recommendations for products to clean the outside? I have heard that any sort of car wash product is good (but NOT household soaps like dish soap etc. oops I've been guilty of that in the past on other cars). Do you agree that CAR shampoos are more or less the same? There seem to be so many different products. And then...do you use a wax or something? Or do you use a wash and wax in one?
I got leather seats (on an LX, had them installed thru dealer as part of the purchase). I have heard that Armor All is not that good for leather seats. There are pastes and liquids and sprays...how to decide?
Finally, I want the dash and the screens to maintain that new look...what products do you recommend? My screen is already getting sort of dirty, attracting dust and dirt. I've been using those dust wipes that trap the dust in them...and not any sort of liquid...but it looks like it'sg etting a little smudged so what do you think I should use on it to clean it?
Thanks for any advice.... Liz
