house hold items to clean cars?

[ScienceVR6]

DOVW os on sunday, does anyone know how to get a car looking showable in a day with only items found around the house?
I have the normal Tyre shines and carwash and sponges and things, but are there house hold items i could use on the leather? The carpets? the dash? the glass?

Im pretty poor at the moment and i don't want to spend any money.

Pitty you live so far away otherwise i'd have loaned you my whole detailing case.

I know. How come no one wants to drive an hour and a half from melbourne to my place? Its a straight line and its all 100km/h the whole way to pakenham, then its 100 again till my place!

But anyway. Are there any items i should catagorically NEVER use?





(Conundrum for yas. If there are 2 sections of 100km/h, which could be writen 2 x 100km/h, does that make 200km/h?)

dish washing liquid

is dishwashing liquid GOOD or BAD? I used to use a little bit in hot water all the time... Also used Wool Wash detergent.

How about you try it and let us know what happens?

dont use dishwashing liquid on paint, it will remove all protective coatings of polish/wax etc.

warm water and wool/delicates stuff is ok on leather just dont make it too strong.

Dont use Drano or an Enjo mit.
