Default Plastic Cleaner

Hey ya'll! I am detailing my truck today and was wondering what you guys use to clean the plastic, e.g. cowl panel, doorhandle mouldings, step pads on the rear bumper, step pad on the front bumper. I wanted to clean that stuff and get the little bit of wax out of the edges.

Maguires Hot Shine in the spray bottle for black exterior plastics. It's a tire shine but I use it on any black plastics on the outside of the truck. Works GREAT....however do NOT use it on areas where traction is needed (ie. step pads on side steps of bumper)

I just wipe it with water. If there is any Greasy spot, just add soap, or Spray bottle Interior Cleaner.
If you are Detailing, I like Meguiar Natural Shine for interior. If you go into Part Store for Detailing product, I recommend ANYTHING with Meguiar name on it.

Yea I am also a big fan of Meguires products. Just got done with the first "good" cleaning of the year. De-tarred the entire truck(that really sucks with a white truck), washed and waxed, put protectant on the wheels and tires, undercoated the fenderwells, clay barred the hood and front fenders (ran out of gas before I got any more of that done), spot cleaned the carpet, armor alled the interior, swept and finished up with the glass. Don't hate to tell ya I'm tired!
