I make a light solution of AG Interior shampoo in a spray bottle at about 10:1. Spray on seats and then use the wet vax and clean the seat through until all the soap is gone. I use a stronger solution of 4:1 for the carpets on the floor. I use leather cleaner and conditioner afterwards (for some reason i cant remember the brand but its a well known one) and then wipe dash down with a microfibre which is damp and has a 10:1 solution of AG Interior Shampoo.

I dont use air freshners, has a fresh clean smell for about 5 days and then the leather comes through.
