Can anyone recommend a good interior sealant/protector? I just picked up the wife an Escalade Platinum and I don't want the kid and dogs destroying the inside of this thing.

I do have access to Dupont interior sealant, although I don't know if there is another product that offers better protection.

I use Adam's Leather Conditioner in mine, has an SPF65 in it and really makes the leather supple too. Then again, I use mostly Adam's products for all aspects of cleaning and detailing.

Factory leather has a protective coating on it already. Nothing special needed.

What about for the carpet and suede?

I wouldn't use a sealant on the alcantara in the car. While most places will sell you a fabric guard spray, they are usually not recommended for alcantara.

For the carpets, swap out with weathertech mats, or use the fabric guard that I'm telling you not to use on the suede.

For the rest of the interior, I would just use Adam's Interior Detail

I would have agree with the Adams. Great stuff

Elephant Wax is a smooth coating and lasts for several months.
