Prima Nero - Does it clean and protect?

Nero users - I am thinking of trying it out. I currently use the Pinnacle Vinyl CLeaner and Protectant (2 products). My question is, does the Nero include cleaners so that I can replace both Pinnacle products with it? Or do you need to use a cleaner before Nero?

Thanks

Ken's right- Nero is a light cleaner and protectant, so it does both.

The only time you might need a dedicated cleaner prior to using Nero is if you have some hardcore grime or staining. In most cases, Nero will clean basic soiling, dirt and dustiness AND protect, all in one step.

Now that is a quick reply! My interior is generally quite clean, so I think the Nero should work very well Thanks Ken and Heather.

i use an interior car duster and Nero with DP's utility MF towels.
it is a perfect combo for our MINI's (especially ones with leatherette).

Sweet. BTW, I was looking through your pics and realized you also have the carbon fiber interior kit. Good taste all around
