No... different brands by the same makers.

Are there any good interior cleaners that can be used on the textured plastic and the leather parts?

This works fantastic and wont cause off gas and window build up. Safe for all interior materials. Here is the story and web page. It does not put a shine or leave any residue. Just looks factory fresh and clean. In fact, cleaner than from the factory cause mine had some build filth on the components and I would not let the dealer do any prep.

Not to sound like a "Zaino salesman", but I use Zaino's leather/conditioner on the seats, etc., and for the steering wheel, I use only the cleaner/conditioner. (I do not follow up with the conditioning cream)

I dampen a soft towel with the cleaner/conditioner, and with minimal pressure, wipe back and forth on the steering wheel.

*Be careful not to press too hard, and/or rub vigorously...I did this one time to a shift knob, and actually started to harm the leather.*
