    Me too. I eat lunch in it almost every day.

    To answer the original question....it never takes me long to do the interior. An hour if I’m being real focused. Yours must have been trashed.

    Also, Armor All is not what to used to be. The brand has gone south big time over the years. Try some Meguair’s Interior Cleaner. It can be found at Walmart.

    It wouldn’t take as long if you did it almost constantly like I do.

    I don't use armor all on anything any more. Get some 303 aerospace. It takes me about 2 hours to do the inside of my crewmax. I don't let it get dirty. Shop vac the rugs, wipe down the plastics, clean up the cup holders, spray off the husky liners, and clean the glass. If you keep up with it then it is no big deal. If it gets bad then you are looking at a 6 pack of blue yummies and a whole afternoon. Now the outside? That takes all day. Wash, dry, clay bar, and 2 coats of wax. That and the damn black off-road wheels.

    If you want to shine it up, look into 303 Protectant. Most auto parts or Walmart will have it.

    I don’t personally use it, but a lot of people here do.

    303 (30382) UV Protectant for vinyl, rubber, plastic, tires and finished leather, 16 fl. Oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0185PU38A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_PCjECbAHZFDXV

    Oh, hell! What did I get myself into? Lol .Just kidding. Oh, believe me. You could eat off the mats in the truck. But, I don't allow any eating in my truck. The previous owner took care of it somewhat, but he sure as heck did not use any type of 303 aerospace or anything inside his truck. Ugh!

    I don't use armor all collects and ton of dust makes the windows foggy and is one of the worst things you can do to vinyl. Just ask an upholstery guy. 303 is what I use.

    I buy bulk cheap microfiber towels for interior. Amazon or costco, sams club. But for detailing the outside nothing competes with ....the rag company (amazon)...get their window mf towels and the eagle edgeless (for polishing) and waffle weave for drying. I use 50/50 rubbing alcohol with distilled water for the windows. Spray bottles can be had at home depot or lowes.. Hi @ARamirez73
