Interior question

I purchased a 2014 2ss Bright yellow with Black leather interior about 4 weeks ago. I noticed while cleaning the inside of the windshield that the top of the dash seems sticky. It is covered by what appears to be leather but I do not know if the leather interior includes leather on the dash or if that is artificial. Anyway, I'm curious what should be used here and if microfiber is the best applicator. Microfiber doesn't seem to want to move much across the surface which is rough....Thanks,
Roy

I have satin powder coated wheels and I use a mild soap and water. When I dry them I use a very soft microfiber towel and lightly buff them. They still look great after 2 years.

That's what I do and it's not cutting it

I really like Chemical Guys, Pinnacle and Wolfgang products. Try looking into this;
http://www.chemicalguys.com/Meticulo...spi_995_16.htm
This is a matte detailer. It even says it can be used on plasti-dip.

Here's the matte wash;

Both have great review, even on Amazon.

I live in Florida and we recently had a ton of flooding which got into my car to the point where I had puddles on the floor and my car smells like a swamp now. I have clothes interior if that makes a difference. What should I do/use as far as trying to clean the interior and prevent mold or rust or anything as a result of the water? Thanks in advance!
