Cleaning Interiot Plastic Pieces

I'm about set to take my car apart tomorrow and clean each of the plastic interior pieces in the back.

Any reccomendations as to what to use and how to go about this procedure, i wanna make sure i do it right and it's not a waste of my time. Thanks.

might sound odd.....BUT!!!!!
try Lysol Bathroom Tub and Tile Cleaner...
the FOAM spray..not the squirt bottle
and as a bonus.....the car smells cleaner

Nothing beats good ol soap and water with a brush.

We do cars all year (buy and sell) and I've seen some real bad voodoo come off with just soap and water.

You would be amazed.

I wouldnt use dish soap.if you must use soap use a mild car soap.plus there are many products around for this,1 grand all purpose shampoo,p21s total auto wash,are some.when youre putting everything back together,get some of those self stick pads for furniture and cut them to fit behind plastic to fill space.also when plastic meets plastic use a tiny bead of clear silicone on edges.let it dry before you put it together so it comes apart later.this will help big time with rattles.use on inner edges so its not visible when assembled
