It’s always a good idea to take care of your car. Here are some tips for taking care of interior wood grain.
If the wood grain is encased in acrylic (which is common), you’ll want to clean it like you would any plastic surface. If it’s real wood, you’ll want to treat it like a piece of furniture. That means wood-safe cleaners and microfiber cloth.

to a professional
