Cleaning the interior

So I am looking up at the roof of my car and it is dirty as all hell. Any suggestions how to get the dirt of it. The visor also is filthy. So before I go use a toothbrush and some cleaner any suggestions will be appreciated.

No, use spray upholstery cleaner like TUFF STUFF (I think that's what it is called). Or, use a carpet cleaner like Hoover (use the hand attachment).

Talking Cleaning the interior

I found OXY Clean, Hoover and 3M carpet cleaner all to be very good. I haven't been able to find OXY Clean in a spray can so I've been using 3M Carpet Cleaner. A toothbrush seemed to harsh to me so I use a soft cloth on a sunny day.

OXY Clean mixed in with the spray solution for steam cleaners works wonders. I've cleaned all the carpets and cloth in my car and it turned out great. For the leather, I would highly recommend Lexol. On top of that, it smells good too!

I agree, Lexol cleaner and conditioner is great and not too greasy.

That TUFF STUFF upholstery cleaner is sprayed on, let set, wipe off. It works great. All of the Lexol products are great. My bro-in-law supplies detailer, shoe/luggage repair places, and Nordstroms, Macy's etc. They all say that for leather, Lexol is the best. Just make sure you buff off the conditioner after it dries, or it will be sticky until you clothes rub it off.

-Use Lexol's pH balanced cleaner
-Then Lexol's leather conditioner
