Oily trim 'Finisher' removal
Discussion
Can anyone recommend an effective product for removing the awful oily/greasy stuff that car valeters have a habit of using?
I bought a used 911 recently and the previous owner must have resorted to a really nasty job being done which has left every surface inside the car feeling greasy and looking shiny. Even some bits of the exterior have been 'dressed' in the same way
I have tried neat alcohol cleaning stuff which partially works but I'm worried that overuse might harm the vinyl/plastic/leather dash trim.

You could try some of this, I normally use it as a final wipe to degrease surfaces before applying protection, normal rules apply, try it on a small inconspicuous area on all the trims to check it's not going to harm anything before you go into using it fully

I might be tempted to tentatively try a decent APC (I use Maguiar’s). Try it on a safe spot out of the way. Otherwise I’d probably just keep using a dry microfibre every so often. It will eventually wear off. I’m with you on this, though. I can’t stand it when dealers use the horrible shiny stuff. I use diluted Carpro Perl on my interiors. The finish is amazing without the horrible shine.
