What is the best product to keep the interior clean and all the plastic from drying out?

in use a good leather conditioner, dura gloss or meguiars. murphys oil soap is good cleaner and protectant. never use armour all or silicone based products as they hold dust and dirt

I have used 303's line of products for years. I have used their vinyl and fabric line of products on all my classics and newer cars/trucks. I always get complements on how well the vinyl interior(s) look.

Here is a link to a info page on care of vinyl (below) : Basically clean with warm water and mild soap...anything stronger will harm the vinyl surface then apply a good protectant.
As far as I know there are not any products out there that will "revive" old and dried out vinyl. Once it is dried out there is really not much that can be done beside replacing the fabric. You can make it look better but once the "cracking" has started the vinyl surface life is at it end..........

Here is a tip I got from an old timer. If you have some vinyl the soap and water won't clean, get some hand cleaner(not the stuff with grit in it but the creamy type and if you can find some with lanolin in it even better)and rub it over the area. I have let this sit on dirty areas for days with no adverse affects. Wipe off and reapply as needed. If you think about it the hand cleaner won't hurt your hands so why would it hurt vinyl. I have used this several times when needed. Good luck.

I've also seen 'Scrubbin' Bubbles' spray foam used with great success on seats, especially white.

Simply green works great as a cleaner, on stuff out of the car due to large amounts of water to remove cleaner from fabric or foam.
