Clean and Protect, Which Products?

I'm sure this has been covered in many threads, but there are lots of products and lots of things to clean and protect from UV and filth. I'd like to get peoples opinions of what is the best and what they use..

1: Clean and protecting Dashboards
2: Clean and protecting Leather
3: Clean and protecting interior plastics, vent covers, trim, etc.
4: Clean and protecting rubber seals and door gaskets
5: Cleaning Glass and gage lenses
6: Best Tire Shine Product
7: Best Car Wash Soap
8: Best WAX/UV Protectant for Paint
9: Anything I missed

1. 303 (cleaner, if necessary) and protectant.
2. Poorboys Leather Stuff. (If a good cleaning is really needed I'll use Lexol cleaner.)
3. 303 protectant.
4. 303 protectant or Poorboys Trim Restorer.
5. Stoners, Sonus (if needed), or Poorboys Spray & Wipe.
6. Poorboys Bold n Bright.
7. Four Star Ultimate shampoo.
8. Varies - Four Star UPP, Poorboys EX/EX-P/Nattys
9. Quick detailer/waterless wash - Poorboys Spray & Wipe.

Almost the same list as you Vroom .

I only have Stoners for glass etc, use Four Star and now Poorboys SSnS to wash, instead of ex/exp,...put in OCW, and QD'ers are FourStar or Megs.

I changed my mind on OCW,.....was trying to cut costs so I was not going to order any, but I changed my mind and had to get some. I forgot to order it though haha. So TECHNICALLY,.............I dont use it,....YET. Maybe I will order some tomorrow, MUAHAHAHAHA.
