How to clean interior?

I am looking on advice on how to clean the dash interior of my Mini. It is Hyper Blue in color and I was told to use only water because anything else could damage the finish. I am thinking of using the same wax that I use for the exterior (Griot's Best of Show Wax) Is this safe? Thanks in advance.

I used Griot's Speed Shine today and it worked very well. Didn't strip the dash or leave it dry-looking, but wasn't slick or oily or shiny either.

I would think Best of Show might leave it sorta greasy?

ahh, see. SpeedShine works real well for interiors, doesn't it?

as far as cleaning the painted surfaces, i would only use a high quality
MF towel to eliminate scratches and use Best of Show as mentioned
on the body-matched surfaces.
