Default Leather Cleaner

Any brand of leather cleaner that is safe/recommended for the A3? Also, I hear that Armor all is not good for the dash - true, rumor?

Thanks.

I find Armour All too greasy. I like Vinylex. For leather I like Lexol (not sure if Audi approved)

Default I like 303 for the dash.

Armor All is not only too greasy, but doesn't provide any UV protection-which is what helps prevent that nasty film on the inside of your windows.

it's greasy... but if you put it on lightly, it settles down. I wouldn't get it again.

Default How does UV protection on the dash help with...

that film you get inside the window ? I have never heard that before.

I always figured that film was the result of condensation, temp fluctuations, etc....I guess I never gave it much thought.
