What’s going on guys, it’s Hai and in this post, we’re taking a look at Ethos Car Care’s Interior Detailer.
This product is a coconut scented all in one interior detailer, meaning it cleans while leaving behind a layer of UV protection without the need of any other products. Interior Detailer is advertised to be safe for all interior surfaces and leaves a non-greasy, streak-free factory “matte” finish.
To use this product, Ethos recommends spraying directly into a microfiber cleaning towel to prevent overspray and wiping the product onto the surface of choice. Then, go back and wipe again with a second clean microfiber towel to remove any excess. In terms of use, this is as simple as it gets. Wipe on, wipe off.
After getting some time in with this product, I would say that it does the job and is a good product. However, I did notice that results vary depending on the surface. Remember, Interior Detailer is advertised to be safe on all interior surfaces. This includes dashboards, leather, vinyl, plastics, and everything in between. With the Supra interior that you’re seeing here, all the buttons are hard plastic, the various dash and side panels are some sort of soft leather print plastic, maybe vinyl or leatherette, there’s also some clear coat carbon fiber and piano black. Interior Detailer did a great job with the hard plastic buttons, making the surface a darker, richer black. However, with all the leather-textured panels, Interior Detailer seemingly did nothing in terms of enhancing the look of the surface. This product is advertised to leave a factory matte finish but with these surfaces, the surface actually looks so matte that it looks somewhat dull and has nothing on it. This tripped me up a bit and I actually did multiple passes on these surfaces to see if I get anything different but nothing. I’m not saying that this is a bad thing, it just depends on what you’re looking for. This is the result that I got on this particular surface. Remember, the results were very different on the hard, smoother plastic buttons. With the clear coat carbon fiber and piano black, as expected, there was no change because everything just wipes away from these surfaces.
In my personal opinion, the biggest strength of this product is convenience. Previously, I would have to clean everything, then go back and protect everything. With Interior Detailer, I just sat there and moved from panel to panel. Cleaning and protecting everything in one pass and with one product. I really liked this. However, because this product really didn’t improve the look of the leather-textured surfaces in my car, which is pretty much everywhere that I look, I would have to say that it’s not for me. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t recommend it because I absolutely would. This is the type of product that you just have to try for yourself and see how it works with your interior. The price isn’t that bad so if you’re interested, I would just pick it up and give it a try.
