Frequently asked questions about Wipes for interior cleaning
Can I use home multi-purpose cleaning wipes on the interior of my car?

These chemicals can damage surfaces such as leather, vinyl, plastic and electronics, which can lead to fading, cracking or other deterioration. Specially designed car care wipes are formulated to be gentle on the interior of the car while effectively removing dirt and stains.
Are wipes safe to use on leather interiors?
Yes, there are specially designed wipes that are safe to use on leather interiors. These wipes are formulated with ingredients that not only clean the leather but also help to moisturise and protect it.
It is important to use wipes that explicitly state they are suitable for leather to avoid damaging the material. Always check the label and first test the product on a small, concealed part of the leather to ensure there is no discolouration or damage.
