This mild interior cleaner cleans sensitive vehicle surfaces such as displays, soft-touch plastics, Alcantara, and leather, leaving no residue or streaks — without aggressive solvents and without visible marks.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eModern vehicle interiors place special demands on cleaning products: large touchscreens and display surfaces, coated soft-touch plastics, Alcantara upholstery, and satin-matte surfaces react sensitively to conventional interior cleaners with alkaline or solvent-based formulas. The \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/strong\u003e has been specially developed for these sensitive materials: a mild, alcohol-free cleaning formula that removes fingerprints, skin oils, dust residues, and light dirt without attacking display coatings, damaging Alcantara fibers, or leaving streaks on soft-touch surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGentle cleaning for displays and touchscreens.\u003c\/strong\u003e Infotainment displays and instrument clusters in modern vehicles are equipped with anti-glare coatings, oleophobic touchscreen protective layers, and UV-absorbing topcoats. Conventional cleaners with alcohol or strong surfactants can damage these sensitive coatings, create streaks, or permanently impair the anti-glare effect. The SensitiveSurface Detailer is formulated to remove fingerprints and grease marks from display surfaces without attacking the protective layers — the result is a clear, streak-free display surface with no residue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for Alcantara, velour, and sensitive textiles.\u003c\/strong\u003e Alcantara is a high-performance material based on polyester microfibers, used in many premium vehicles for steering wheels, seats, and headliners. It is sensitive to moisture and reacts to too much solvent with discoloration, shiny spots, or matted fibers. The SensitiveSurface Detailer contains no free alcohol and is so mild in its dosage that it cleans Alcantara surfaces without damaging the fibers or leaving drying spots — provided it is used sparingly according to the instructions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntistatic effect reduces new dust accumulation.\u003c\/strong\u003e A frequently overlooked property of interior cleaners is their behavior towards electrostatic charge: plastic surfaces in the interior become statically charged due to friction and attract dust. The SensitiveSurface Detailer contains antistatic agents that reduce this charge after cleaning — the result is a surface that remains dust-free significantly longer after cleaning than after treatment with conventional cleaners without this additional function.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical tip from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never spray the SensitiveSurface Detailer directly onto display surfaces — the spray can penetrate ventilation slots or under display bezels and damage electrical components. Instead, spray it onto a clean, soft microfiber cloth and wipe the display surface with light, circular motions. For Alcantara surfaces, only slightly dampen the cloth — do not soak it — and always work in the direction of the fibers to avoid creating shiny spots. For stubborn dirt on textiles and Alcantara, we recommend the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-leathercleaner-lederreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE LeatherCleaner\u003c\/a\u003e for leather surfaces as a complementary specialized product. After cleaning, allow it to dry briefly until the surface dries to a matte finish — the antistatic film is then active.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMild Cleaning Chemistry — How the SensitiveSurface Detailer Protects Sensitive Surfaces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe challenge in developing an interior cleaner for sensitive surfaces lies in balancing sufficient cleaning power with minimal surface stress. Conventional alkaline cleaners work with a pH value of 9–12 and strong surfactants that effectively dissolve organic contaminants (fats, oils, proteins) — but at the same time attack coatings, paints, and plasticizers. Solvent-based cleaners remove stubborn stains, but leave dissolution artifacts on sensitive surfaces and can attack polyester microfibers in Alcantara.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/strong\u003e uses a mild surfactant technology in the neutral pH range: the cleaning molecules encapsulate dirt particles (finger grease, dust particles, light color marks) and detach them from the surface without chemically stressing the material. The formula contains neither alcohol nor strongly alkaline buffer substances — both classes of substances are known to attack display coatings and make matte paint surfaces greasy. Instead, the Detailer works with gentle surfactants specifically selected for cleaning sensitive plastic and textile materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe antistatic active ingredient content of the Detailer is another technical feature: quaternary ammonium compounds or polymer-based antistatic additives deposit as an ultra-thin film on the cleaned surface after cleaning, preventing renewed electrostatic charge. This effect is particularly effective in dry environments (heated cabins, low humidity) and measurably extends the dust-free phase after cleaning. This is an economic advantage for detailing businesses: vehicles remain in the condition they were delivered to the customer for longer, which increases satisfaction and reduces complaints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formulation of the SensitiveSurface Detailer is also optimized so that it leaves no streaks or whitish residues after cleaning, which can occur with alkaline cleaners due to carbonate deposits. On glass surfaces, in dark plastic areas, and on high-gloss displays, a streak-free drying formula is indispensable — any drying with visible residues must be re-worked with an additional wiping process, which costs time and stresses the surface more than necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplying SensitiveSurface Detailer Correctly — Step-by-Step in the Interior\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe correct application of the interior cleaner begins with preparing the surface to be cleaned. Loose dust particles and dry dirt should first be brushed off with a soft brush or a microfiber duster — if these particles are moved when wiping with a damp cloth, they can leave fine scratches on sensitive surfaces. This applies particularly to display surfaces, where even the finest sand can cause microscopic scratches that permanently impair the reflection on the display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplication step: Spray the Detailer onto a clean, soft microfiber cloth — not directly onto the surface. The amount should be chosen so that the cloth is slightly dampened, but no free liquid film forms on the cloth that could drip onto sensitive surfaces. With the dampened cloth, wipe the surface with light, even pressure — circular motions are suitable for displays; on Alcantara and velour, always work in the direction of the fibers. Loosen stubborn stains by allowing a short dwell time: place the cloth on the spot, let it act for 15–30 seconds, then wipe. Do not rub — the Detailer dissolves the dirt so that it can be removed, not mechanically forced off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinal step: Polish with the dry side of the same cloth or a second dry microfiber cloth to remove the last traces of moisture and achieve a uniform, matte finish. On high-gloss displays, this step is particularly important, as even small traces of moisture can become visible as streaks in glancing light. The antistatic finish of the Detailer is active after drying — no additional treatment is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor professional use, we recommend a sectional approach in the vehicle interior: first displays and instruments, then center console and door panels, then seats and textiles — from clean to dirty, from top to bottom, so that no dirt particles from already cleaned areas are transferred to cleaned surfaces. This order is a professional standard that improves cleaning quality and reduces overall processing time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAreas of Application for SensitiveSurface Detailer — Which Surfaces Benefit Most\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior cleaner is particularly valuable for vehicles with a combination of sensitive materials, which are standard in modern premium vehicles today. Modern high-performance vehicles with large touchscreen integrations (current Mercedes, BMW, and Audi models with integrated display strips) have a variety of display surfaces, all of which react sensitively to alcohol and alkaline cleaners. The SensitiveSurface Detailer can be used on all these surfaces — from OLED screens to capacitive touch controls — without risk to the protective layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlcantara surfaces are a classic application area: steering wheels with Alcantara covers, Alcantara\/leather combination seat surfaces, and Alcantara headliners are widespread in sports cars and premium vehicles and are regularly a challenge for detailers. Most universal cleaners are too aggressive for Alcantara or leave drying marks — the SensitiveSurface Detailer, with its mildness, is suitable for this material, although for heavily soiled Alcantara, a specialized textile cleaning product may be more effective. For leather surfaces in the same vehicle, the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-leathercleaner-lederreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE LeatherCleaner\u003c\/a\u003e is a complementary special product tailored to the specific requirements of aniline leather and natural leather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft-touch plastics (STC) are another important area of application: Many dashboards, door handles, and center consoles of modern vehicles are equipped with a rubbery soft-touch coating that gives the interior a high-quality feel. These coatings react extremely sensitively to solvents (dissolution of the coating, becoming sticky) and to silicones (softening, gloss formation on matte areas). The SensitiveSurface Detailer contains neither silicones nor solvents in relevant quantities, making it a safe choice for STC surfaces. Matte films on trim strips and matte paints on interior elements also benefit from the mild formula, which leaves no grease marks or shiny spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSensitiveSurface Detailer in Product Comparison — When Which Interior Cleaner Makes Sense\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the SONAX PROFILINE interior range, there are several products for different requirements. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-interior-detailer-concentrate-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/a\u003e is a concentrate for general interior cleaning — more powerful and economical for cleaning heavily soiled or robust surfaces such as hard plastic dashboards, carpets, and rubber seals. For coarse dirt on conventional plastics, the concentrate is more efficient than the SensitiveSurface Detailer, which is milder than necessary for such tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SensitiveSurface Detailer positions itself as a specialized premium product for precisely defined tasks: sensitive, high-quality interior materials that should not be cleaned with standard interior cleaners. In a professional detailing operation, we therefore recommend having both products available — the Interior Detailer Concentrate for basic cleaning and heavy soiling, and the SensitiveSurface Detailer for fine work on sensitive surfaces and final detail cleaning before handover. This two-stage approach to interior cleaning workflow is a professional standard that improves both efficiency and quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to universal household cleaners or non-specialized car care products, the decisive advantage of the SensitiveSurface Detailer lies in its targeted formulation for vehicle interiors: display coatings in vehicles differ from household screens, Alcantara fibers react differently than home textiles, and soft-touch plastics in vehicles have different chemical compositions than household items. A cleaner developed for vehicle interiors takes these specific material compositions into account — generic alternatives from the household usually do not and increase the risk of surface damage. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-cleanstar-ecocert-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/a\u003e is also an interesting alternative for businesses that value certified environmentally friendly ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying SONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer — Packaging and Recommendation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/strong\u003e is available in 1 liter and as a 2-piece and 3-piece set. The 1-liter bottle is designed as a ready-to-use spray and is intended for direct application — without dilution or pre-mixing, which makes handling in ongoing operations very efficient. Based on experience, 20–40 ml are needed per vehicle interior for normal soiling, so the 1-liter container is sufficient for 25–50 complete interior cleanings. The 3-piece set is the most economical option for businesses that regularly recondition premium vehicles and use the Detailer as a fixed part of their interior workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is particularly recommended for detailers and reconditioning businesses that regularly prepare premium vehicles with Alcantara upholstery, large infotainment displays, or soft-touch trim. These are often vehicles from the high-price segment, where cleaning damage due to unsuitable products can be particularly costly — a specialized cleaner like the SensitiveSurface Detailer is an investment in securing the quality guarantee for the customer. For the ambitious private user who maintains their premium vehicle themselves and wants to treat sensitive materials gently, the product is also the safest choice compared to inexpensive universal cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a complete interior care workflow, we recommend: SensitiveSurface Detailer for displays, Alcantara, and soft-touch → LeatherCleaner for leather surfaces → Interior Detailer Concentrate for carpets and coarse plastics. This three-stage approach ensures that each surface category is treated with the optimal product for it, maximizing cleaning results and minimizing the risk of material damage — the hallmark of truly professional interior detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"1000 ml \/ 1 liter","offer_id":53521766547791,"sku":"D1-SNX-2863000","price":20.66,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2x 1 Liter Set","offer_id":53521766580559,"sku":"D1-SNX-2863000_2","price":41.32,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"3x 1 Liter Set","offer_id":53521766613327,"sku":"D1-SNX-2863000_3","price":61.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-sensitivesurface-detailer-innenraumreiniger_1-liter.png?v=1730659049"},{"product_id":"sonax-profiline-cleanstar-ecocert-innenraumreiniger","title":"PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\" interior cleaner","description":"\u003c!-- BLOCK 1: body_html --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEco-certified pro interior cleaner for every surface — SONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat does Ecocert certification mean on a car cleaner? Ecocert is an independent body that tests cleaning and care products for natural ingredients and environmental compatibility. PROFILINE CleanStar carries that mark — with 99.75% naturally sourced ingredients and a pH-neutral value of 6.5-7.5.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCar interiors today are built from ever more delicate materials: Alcantara, leather, matte plastics, chrome trim and touchscreen surfaces all need cleaners that are tough on dirt but gentle on the material. The \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/strong\u003e is built for exactly that brief: a ready-to-use universal interior cleaner that handles every surface inside the cabin — from fabric seats through leather to glass and plastic — while leaning on an Ecocert-certified formula with 99.75% naturally sourced ingredients. Available in 5, 25 and 200 litre containers: the product for businesses that need an ecologically sound cleaning solution at scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEcocert-certified — verified natural ingredients.\u003c\/strong\u003e Ecocert certification isn't a marketing claim, it's an independent check by an accredited certification body. The CleanStar \"Ecocert\" is 99.75% naturally sourced — anionic and amphoteric plant-based surfactants, no synthetic solvents. The pH window of 6.5-7.5 is gentle on every common interior surface; neither leather nor Alcantara nor glass gets attacked by this pH-neutral cleaner.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal interior cleaner for every surface — one product instead of many.\u003c\/strong\u003e The CleanStar cleans interior glass, fabric seats, leather, Alcantara, plastics (coated and uncoated), rubber and metal trim. That versatility saves you switching time and shelf space in pro work: instead of grabbing a different product for each surface, you work through the whole cabin with a single bottle. Move from delicate to robust surfaces as you go — a cloth dirty from plastic does no harm on glass, and either way it's less of an issue than with strongly abrasive cleaners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePro container sizes from 5 to 200 litres for businesses of every size.\u003c\/strong\u003e The PROFILINE CleanStar comes in three bulk sizes: 5 litres for smaller workshops and mobile detailing, 25 litres for mid-sized operations and 200 litres for large accounts, dealership chains and fleet-care businesses. The 200 litre drum makes it a practical long-term answer for industrial interior-cleaning demand — no frequent reordering, and matching volume savings on price.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e When you work the headliner, never spray straight onto the surface — always onto the microfibre cloth. The headliner is often glued layers; a direct mist can soak in and loosen the bond. On Alcantara, run the cloth with light pressure and always in one direction (with the nap) — no circular motions that rough up the fibres. For interior glass, lay CleanStar onto a dry microfibre cloth and wipe in overlapping horizontal passes; then buff with a second dry cloth. For a full interior clean, stick to a clear workflow: ceiling → glass → dashboard → doors → seats → floor. That way no cleaned area gets dirtied again by a later step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEcocert certification and natural ingredients — what sets the SONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\" apart from conventional cleaners\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ecocert certification is the core difference between the CleanStar and other SONAX PROFILINE interior cleaners. Ecocert is a French certification body that has tested and certified natural and organic products to defined standards since 1991. For a cleaning product, Ecocert certification means the ingredients must come in large part from natural or naturally derived sources; synthetic solvents, petrochemical derivatives and certain preservatives are either banned or tightly limited. The CleanStar meets these requirements with a 99.75% naturally sourced content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surfactants in the CleanStar are plant-derived — anionic and amphoteric surfactants made from renewable raw materials (mostly coconut or palm oil derivatives). These plant-based surfactants have a cleaning profile comparable to synthetic equivalents, but break down far better in wastewater. For businesses that run their wastewater management to ecological standards or are chasing environmental certifications, the biodegradability of the ingredients is a real criterion when picking a product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnother point worth flagging on the natural formula: odour emissions. Conventional interior cleaners with synthetic solvents often leave a sharp chemical smell that lingers in the cabin after cleaning and can put customers off — especially at handover. Thanks to its plant-based surfactants, the CleanStar has a much milder, fresh scent of its own that clears completely after a short airing. For dealerships and businesses that care about a pleasant smell after an interior clean, that's a noticeable difference in the customer experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pH value of 6.5-7.5 is decisive for material compatibility. Many aggressive interior cleaners work in the alkaline range (pH 8-11), which delivers strong soil-lifting power but dries out leather, damages Alcantara and attacks coated plastics. The CleanStar, in its near-neutral pH range, is by contrast safe to use on all the materials named — it's easy on the surfaces while still cleaning normal car dirt well (dust, fingerprints, drink residue). For very heavy soiling (blood, engine oil, tar) stronger, non-Ecocert-certified cleaners are often more effective; for everyday and care work the CleanStar is positioned just right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe preservatives in the CleanStar — 2-Bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol, 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one and Methylisothiazolinone — are the one point where sensitive users might prick up their ears: these preservatives can cause skin irritation in some people. But they are present in very low concentrations (well under the legally permitted maximums) and are harmless for professional use with normal hand protection. Ecocert certification does not rule out these preservatives in acceptable amounts — they're needed to keep the product stable over its shelf life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing CleanStar \"Ecocert\" — a ready-to-use cleaner for every interior surface\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe CleanStar \"Ecocert\" is ready to use — no dilution needed. That direct-use design is a clear win for pro work: no measuring, no mixing, straight from the bottle. Spray the product onto a microfibre cloth (SONAX recommends the Scheibe+Innen microfibre cloth) and apply it to the surface you're cleaning. The spray foams up moderately — no over-foaming that would be hard to pull out of upholstery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe workflow for a full car interior: work top to bottom. Clean the headliner first with a sparing cloth application, then interior glass, dashboard and cockpit plastics, door cards, seats and finally floor mats and floor. Rinse the cloth in fresh water regularly and re-spray it with product — a heavily soiled cloth moves more dirt than it picks up. For stubborn soiling on a given spot, apply cleaner to the cloth several times and let it dwell; the key is patience, not pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn glass (windscreen, side windows, interior mirror) the CleanStar is especially effective against the hazy film that forms on the glass of cars with a lot of plastic off-gassing inside. This silicone-laden film from plastic out-gassing is stubborn and many universal cleaners struggle to shift it. With its amphoteric surfactants, the CleanStar cuts through the greasy film more efficiently than purely anionic cleaners. For the best glass finish, use a dry buffing cloth until no streaks are left.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor child-transport vehicles, ambulances and commercial vehicles with frequently changing passengers, the CleanStar is a particularly good fit, since the natural ingredients carry less irritation risk on accidental skin contact than synthetic cleaner alternatives. For end customers with sensitive skin, or who react to synthetic chemicals in the cabin, the Ecocert formula is a preferred choice. This product-safety angle is especially relevant for businesses maintaining care fleets for nurseries, care services or medical transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlcantara calls for a special application technique: Alcantara is a microfibre synthetic fibre with a textile structure that wrong cleaning can permanently disturb (roughening, glazing). Spray the CleanStar onto the cloth (not onto the Alcantara), then wipe with light pressure in the direction of the nap (typically top to bottom on seats). No circular motions. Wipe wet-on-wet afterwards with a slightly damp, clean cloth to lift residue. Once dry, raise the Alcantara fibres with a soft clothes brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePro container sizes — 5, 25 and 200 litres for every operation scale\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\" comes in three container sizes cut to different operation sizes. The 5 litre can is the entry point for smaller detailing businesses, mobile detailing and well-kitted hobby detailers with high consumption: 5 litres of ready-to-use cleaner lasts, used sparingly, for 50-100 full car interior cleans. The can is handy enough to carry in the vehicle and fits most tool boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 25 litre size is built for mid-sized detailing businesses doing 5-20 cars a day. A 25 litre canister lasts roughly 4-6 weeks at 5 cars a day, depending on how heavy the cleaning is. The price edge over the 5 litre can is already clearly noticeable at this size — the cost per litre drops sharply, which adds up to a real saving over the year in continuous use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the 25 litre size it pays to top up spray bottles from a filling station or a burette dosing system rather than working straight from the canister. That saves product through precise dosing and stops spills when pouring from a big canister into narrow spray bottles. Simple dosing pumps for 5 and 25 litre canisters are cheap in the detailing accessory trade and pay for themselves quickly through product savings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 200 litre drum is aimed at large operations, dealership chains and fleet-care services with very high cleaning volume. A 200 litre drum needs a stationary tap or a dosing pump to match, available as an accessory. For businesses cleaning 20-50 cars a day, the 200 litre drum cuts reorder frequency to a few times a year and avoids the logistics costs of frequent small orders. The cost per litre on the drum is, again, far cheaper than on the smaller containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCleanStar \"Ecocert\" compared — PROFILINE vs. consumer and vs. Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe direct comparison with the consumer version, the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-cleanstar-ecocert-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/a\u003e in 750 ml: the formula is identical — same Ecocert certification, same natural ingredients, same pH neutrality. The difference is purely in container size and packaging concept: the 750 ml bottle is built for the private user with 1-2 cars, the PROFILINE container for pro use with correspondingly higher consumption. If you already know and rate the consumer version, you'll find the same product in the PROFILINE version in a professional container size with cost advantages in steady use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-interior-detailer-concentrate-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/a\u003e a clear positioning gap shows up: the Interior Detailer Concentrate is a concentrate (dilutable 1:10 to 1:50), not Ecocert-certified, and in return has an antistatic working component the CleanStar doesn't have. If you value the eco certification and a ready-to-use solution, you reach for the CleanStar. If you want to tune the cleaner individually to different soiling levels and rate antistatic protection as important, you pick the Interior Detailer Concentrate. For businesses with a sustainability strategy, the CleanStar is the future-proof choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-sensitivesurface-detailer-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/a\u003e is the specialist product for the most delicate materials — Alcantara, velour, the highest-grade leather variants.

Day-to-day, a combination works well: CleanStar for the standard interior, SensitiveSurface Detailer as a backup for special materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying an eco-friendly interior cleaner — who the SONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\" is right for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/strong\u003e is the ideal choice for professional detailing businesses that pick their cleaning products on ecological and sustainability-driven criteria. Businesses with ISO 14001 certification or similar environmental-management standards can use the CleanStar as a clear product record for the use of natural ingredients in their documentation. Businesses positioned in sustainable car care, or wanting to reach customers in that space, also benefit from the clear Ecocert promise in their customer communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the context of environmental and sustainability initiatives, the CleanStar is of interest to businesses documenting their carbon footprint and chemical use. Plant-based surfactants typically carry a lower CO₂-equivalent value in manufacturing than petrochemical derivatives; the biodegradability in wastewater lowers the environmental load on the disposal route. For businesses wanting to win ecological tenders (e.g. municipal fleet care or public transport operations), using Ecocert-certified products can be a provable quality marker in the bid documentation. Detailing1 can provide product data sheets and safety information for the CleanStar for tender documents on request. Another point concerns staff satisfaction: strong-smelling or skin-irritating cleaners are a burden in daily use. The CleanStar is formulated to be skin-friendly and has a neutral scent of its own that doesn't spoil the working atmosphere. That makes it especially suited to businesses cleaning many cars a day and watching the long-term health compatibility of the products they use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor dealerships and leasing companies with their own detailing department, the 25 or 200 litre container is the most economical solution: a uniform product range, plannable reorder intervals, and one cleaner that works for every car interior and every material — without special products for each segment. As a verified SONAX specialist dealer, Detailing1 carries the PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\" in all three container sizes permanently in its range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"5 liters","offer_id":57344938705231,"sku":"D1-SNX-2535050","price":26.55,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 liters","offer_id":57344938737999,"sku":"D1-SNX-2537050","price":112.47,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"200 liters","offer_id":57344938770767,"sku":"D1-SNX-2539000","price":1154.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-cleanstar-ecocert_5l.png?v=1774730626"},{"product_id":"sonax-profiline-innenreiniger-innenraumreiniger","title":"PROFILINE InnenReiniger Interior Cleaner","description":"\u003ch2\u003eInterior cleaning at volume — SONAX PROFILINE InnenReiniger as a concentrate for pros\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat sets the interior cleaner from the SONAX PROFILINE range apart?

For stubborn marks on fabric seats or heavily soiled floor mats you can take it up to 1:5 or run it neat. Lay the diluted product down with a microfibre cloth, a soft brush or an applicator sponge — don't let it dry on the surface; wipe it off right after the dwell time or take it off with a damp cloth. On leather, always follow the clean with a proper leather conditioner, since cleaners pull the natural oils out of the hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInnenReiniger as a concentrate — how it works, what's in it and dilution guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE InnenReiniger\u003c\/strong\u003e is formulated as a surfactant-based concentrate — surfactants are molecules that bridge water and grease, wrap around dirt particles and lift them off the surface as you wipe. That base tech is well established in car-interior cleaning, because interior grime is a mix of body oils, dust, food residue and fabric particles — all things tensid-based cleaners pull apart reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentrate format has a few clear edges over ready-to-use sprays: transport cost and storage volume per unit are lower, since a big chunk of a ready-to-use product is water you can add cheaper on site. In a pro shop burning through many litres a day, that edge adds up to real savings over the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe recommended dilution ratios for the InnenReiniger depend on the job. As a rough guide: for routine cleaning of lightly soiled surfaces (dashboard, door cards, cubbies) go 1:10 to 1:15. For medium soiling (seats, floor mats after normal use) 1:5 to 1:8 works. For heavy soiling — fabric seats with food or drink stains, ground-in dirt — you can set the concentrate to 1:2 to 1:3 or work it in neat with a brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentrate is also tuned to leave no residue on surfaces once you've wiped it off — nothing that spoils the finish. A common gripe with cheaper interior cleaners is streaking on smooth plastic: the product dries unevenly and leaves streaks that only show up in direct light. This one is built to work clean, which cuts down how much rework the treated panels need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne key note for leather: surfactants don't just lift dirt, they strip the conditioning oils out of the hide too. So regular cleaning of leather seats with the InnenReiniger should always go hand in hand with a follow-up using a leather-care product compatible with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-leathercleaner-lederreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE LeatherCleaner\u003c\/a\u003e, to put the nutrients back and keep the material supple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing the InnenReiniger properly — workflow for fabric, plastic and tough stains\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a full interior clean the workflow starts with pulling out all the loose stuff and vacuuming the cabin thoroughly. Dust and dry dirt you don't remove before going wet turns into a mud with the cleaner, which makes the job harder and loads up your cloth fast. Only once it's vacuumed does the InnenReiniger come into play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn hard plastic surfaces — dashboard, centre console, door cards — apply the diluted solution with a damp microfibre cloth and work it in with circular motions. The cloth should be damp, not wet; too much moisture can creep into gaps and seams and cause staining. After a dwell time of 30–60 seconds, lift the dirt with a clean, dry microfibre cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor fabric seats and carpets, spray the diluted solution on and then work it in with a medium cleaning brush. Brush in the direction of the fibres to avoid roughing them up. On heavy stains you can go over the area several times; between passes let the surface dry off briefly so the moisture doesn't soak into the seat foam. A wet vac after the last pass pulls up the loosened grime and excess liquid and cuts the drying time right down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor machine fabric cleaning — with a steam cleaner or an extraction machine — the diluted InnenReiniger can go into the machine's tank as the cleaning agent. Being compatible with extraction machines makes it an economical alternative to pricey specialist products for hot-steam interior cleaning. When you run it in an extraction machine, pick a slightly higher dilution than for manual application to avoid too much foaming inside the unit. If in doubt, check with the machine maker about the maximum concentrations recommended for the cleaning solution — some extraction machines aren't built for very high-foam products and could be damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-innenraumschwamm-duo-applikationsschwamm\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE InnenraumSchwamm \"Duo\"\u003c\/a\u003e works as an applicator for cleaning smooth plastic and leather surfaces — its two different sides let you both clean and lay down care products after cleaning with the same tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the InnenReiniger earns its keep — areas of use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is built for shops cleaning a lot of cars a day. Detailing shops, rental fleets, fleet managers, dealerships and reconditioners prepping used cars for resale are the typical users. For these shops it's not just cleaning power that counts but the economics too — the InnenReiniger as a concentrate in the 10- or 200-litre size pushes the material cost per car down to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor used-car reconditioning the InnenReiniger is especially relevant: a used interior shows the usual wear patterns after years of daily use — greasy build-up on the wheel and armrests, ground-in dirt in the seats, dust in the vents and lint on the carpet. A thorough pass with the InnenReiniger — from the headliner down to the floor mats — lifts the perceived value of the car a lot and is decisive for the dealer sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFleet operators and rental firms running regular interior cleans across their fleet get the most out of the 200-litre drum. With a fixed dosing system — a wall pump or an automatic mixing rig — the InnenReiniger can be dosed straight at ratio into the spray bottle or container, with no manual decanting. That infrastructure pays for itself fast at high car throughput.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHeadliners are among the trickiest spots in interior cleaning. The fabric is delicate, can't get too wet (the soaked adhesive can warp it) and shouldn't be worked too hard with a brush. For the headliner, go for a higher dilution of the InnenReiniger (1:15 to 1:20) and apply it with a lightly damp microfibre cloth in gentle, linear strokes. No scrubbing — the dirt comes off through the surfactant action, not through mechanical abrasion. That gentle approach keeps the headliner in good shape over many cleans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor shops that offer specialist cleaning on top of standard interior work — leather cleaning, mould removal, odour neutralisation — the InnenReiniger is the base cleaner, the first stage. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-sensitivesurface-detailer-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/a\u003e handles the fine care of delicate surfaces after the base clean with the InnenReiniger, and the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-interior-detailer-concentrate-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/a\u003e rounds it off as a care product that conditions surfaces after cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe InnenReiniger compared — concentrate vs ready-to-use, InnenReiniger vs specialist cleaner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the market there are two basic approaches to car-interior cleaning: ready-to-use sprays and concentrates. Ready-to-use products are good to go and need no dosing — they suit occasional use or staff with no experience of dilution ratios. Concentrates cost more per litre but, once diluted, come out much cheaper per job. In a high-volume pro shop the concentrate pays off against ready-to-use alternatives within just a few weeks of running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eComparing it with specialist cleaners — dedicated leather cleaner, fabric cleaner, plastic cleaner — shows the strength of the all-rounder InnenReiniger: one product for every surface simplifies your stockroom, cuts the number of products and streamlines the workflow. That said, if you're cleaning very delicate leather (Nappa, natural hide) or special fabrics (Alcantara, velour), look at the more specific products in the SONAX PROFILINE range, which are tuned for those materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn bang for the buck the concentrate is clearly the smartest format for a pro shop. Ready-to-use interior cleaners in 500 ml or 1-litre bottles cost several times more per job than the equivalent mixed from concentrate. Once you put the cost per cleaned car of the InnenReiniger concentrate up against a branded spray, the savings jump out at you straight away — and you see why professional shops stick to concentrates without fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying SONAX PROFILINE InnenReiniger — container sizes and what to pick for your shop\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOdour problems inside the car — a common customer job — aren't fully solved by the InnenReiniger alone, but they're cut down a lot. Smells come from mould, dried organic residue and particles bedded into the fabric layers. The InnenReiniger removes the organic base of the smell through its cleaning action; for stubborn odours, follow the base clean with a dedicated odour neutraliser. Pairing a thorough mechanical clean using the InnenReiniger with a follow-up odour neutralisation is the most effective system for cars with bad smell problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice between the 10-litre canister and the 200-litre drum comes down to your shop's daily use. For a detailing shop doing a full interior on 3–5 cars a day, the 10-litre size lasts several weeks. Bigger operations with 10 or more cars a day — rentals, dealerships or car-wash sites — benefit from the 200-litre drum, which pushes the material cost per job down further and means fewer reorders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe InnenReiniger slots seamlessly into the PROFILINE system workflow: pre-clean with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-multiclean-alkaline-vorreiniger\"\u003eMultiClean \"Alkaline\"\u003c\/a\u003e for the exterior wash, InnenReiniger for the interior, SensitiveSurface Detailer or Interior Detailer for the care finish — a matched system from one brand that makes professional results reliably repeatable, and one whose completeness cuts your need for other makers' products in day-to-day reconditioning down to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePicking the right dilution ratio becomes second nature with a little experience. Shops new to the concentrate can start with a standard 1:10 ratio and tweak it to 1:7 or 1:5 if the result falls short. It's worth keeping a small log of the dilutions you use for different car and soiling types — after a few weeks the shop has a reliable standard that saves time and locks in consistent results. If you work with several staff, you can write this log up as an internal work instruction, so everyone runs the same dilutions and application parameters — a decisive step toward quality control in a growing shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor shops just stepping into the PROFILINE range, the InnenReiniger is a solid way in: it's versatile, easy to use and covers the most important part of the reconditioning business. Choosing the concentrate over ready-to-use products is a clear sign the shop works professionally and cost-efficiently — a mark of quality that shows in the price and in how you talk to customers. If you can tell your customer you work with a professional SONAX PROFILINE concentrate, mixed to order, you're signalling experience and method — and you stand out clearly from shops working off supermarket sprays from a can.

The professional concentrate detailer from SONAX can be diluted from 1:10 to 1:50, depending on the degree of soiling — one liter yields between 10 and 50 liters of ready-to-use solution for textiles, leather, plastic, and metal.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who regularly cleans vehicle interiors knows: the cleaning effort varies enormously — there's a world of difference between a slightly dusty rental car and a heavily soiled commercial vehicle. A single spray for all situations is a compromise — either too strong for delicate surfaces or too weak for stubborn dirt. The \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/strong\u003e solves this problem with a variable mixing ratio: from 1:10 for intensive cleaning of heavily soiled surfaces to 1:50 for gentle care of delicate materials — always from the same concentrate, always tailored to the current job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable mixing ratio from 1:10 to 1:50 for every application.\u003c\/strong\u003e The concentrated formula gives the user control over the cleaning intensity. 1:10 is suitable for heavily soiled plastics, ingrained textile floors, and worn steering wheels; 1:30 to 1:50 for delicate leather, Alcantara, and headliner surfaces that are only lightly dusty. One concentrate thus replaces several different ready-to-use products with different strengths — economical and space-saving for professional use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntistatic effect keeps dust away permanently.\u003c\/strong\u003e The formula contains antistatic agents that build a protective layer on the surface after cleaning, preventing electrostatic charges. Plastic and rubber surfaces in the vehicle interior tend to accumulate electrostatic charges, which magnetically attract household dust and fine dust — the reason why cleaned dashboards often get dusty faster than other surfaces. With the antistatic protection, the cleaned surface remains significantly cleaner for longer after treatment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSilicone-free formula — safe for all interior surfaces.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Interior Detailer Concentrate is silicone-free. Silicone leaves a shiny film on plastics that traps dirt, dulls the surface over time, and poses a safety risk on airbag modules and steering wheel grips. The silicone-free formulation leaves no greasy residues — textiles remain breathable, leather retains its natural grip, and hard plastics get a subtle, non-intrusive sheen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical tip from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e For professional use, it is advisable to prepare several pre-mixed spray bottles with different dilution levels: one bottle at 1:15 for plastics and door panels, one at 1:30 for seats and textiles, and one at 1:50 for headliners and delicate leather parts. This saves remeasuring for each vehicle and provides direct access to the appropriate strength. When using on the vehicle headliner, always spray onto a microfiber cloth first, never directly onto the headliner — direct wet application can loosen the adhesive on glued headliners. Do not use on windows, displays, or navigation devices; for glass cleaning, a dedicated glass cleaner is the cleaner choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConcentrate Formula — How SONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate Works on Various Interior Surfaces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentrate detailer from the PROFILINE range is designed for cleaning the entire vehicle interior, with the exception of glass, displays, and electronic surfaces. The formula combines surfactant-based cleaning components with conditioning agents: the surfactants dissolve grease, fingerprints, dust, and organic contaminants from surfaces; the conditioning components strengthen the cleaned surface, prevent electrostatic charge, and leave a subtle protective film. This dual function — cleaning and conditioning in one step — is the core advantage over pure cleaners without conditioning agents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn textile seats and floors, the Interior Detailer works through mechanical and chemical dirt removal: the concentrate is applied to a microfiber care pad or cleaning brush, the fibers are opened by the movement, and dirt is lifted from deep within. The surfactant's lubricating ability reduces friction resistance during scrubbing, allowing even deeper dirt to be loosened without excessive force. For heavily soiled textiles, use the 1:10 mixture, let it sit briefly (30–60 seconds), and then work it in with a steam extractor or wet microfiber cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn leather, dilution is crucial: genuine car leather, especially older leather interiors, reacts sensitively to over-cleaning. The Interior Detailer Concentrate should be used on leather in a 1:30 to 1:50 dilution — a too concentrated solution can dissolve the natural oils from the leather and dry out the surface in the long term. After cleaning leather with the concentrate, a leather care step with a nourishing leather cream to replenish lost oils is ideally followed. The Interior Detailer Concentrate is a cleaner, not a leather conditioner — this separation of tasks in the workflow is important for long-lasting leather interior care. Those who want to do both in one step can use a dedicated leather care product; those who clean sequentially and then condition will achieve a more thorough result because the conditioner is applied to an already cleaned, open-pored surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn hard plastics — dashboard, door panels, center console — the concentrate in a 1:15 to 1:20 dilution provides the best combination of cleaning performance and subtle conditioning. The antistatic after-effect is most noticeable on plastic: anyone who has treated their dashboard with the Interior Detailer Concentrate will notice that it takes significantly longer for dust to accumulate again compared to untreated plastics. Shiny plastic panels that show fingerprints should be treated with a softer cloth and a stronger dilution to avoid micro-scratches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplying Interior Detailer Concentrate — Dilution, Spray Bottle, and Procedure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe application of Interior Detailer Concentrate begins with preparing the ready-to-use solution: pour concentrate into a spray bottle, then fill with water to the desired ratio (always concentrate first, then water — this minimizes foam formation when filling). For standard cleaning of plastics and textiles, 1:15 is a good starting point. Shake the bottle lightly, then spray onto the material to be cleaned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApplication should always be to a microfiber cloth or foam applicator, never directly onto sensitive surfaces such as headliners or Alcantara. On robust surfaces such as rubber floor mats or heavily soiled plastics, it can be sprayed directly. Guide the cloth evenly over the surface, either in a circular motion or in the direction of the fibers (always in the direction of the fibers for Alcantara). For seams, textures, and panel gaps in the dashboard, a soft detailing brush is recommended to work the concentrate into hard-to-reach areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDwell time is not necessary for normal soiling — the formula works immediately upon application and working in. For more stubborn dirt (dried-on food, dirt rings in seat creases), leave the solution on the surface briefly (30–60 seconds) to allow the surfactants to soften the dirt. Then work it in with the cloth. Remove excess with a clean, dry microfiber cloth and allow the surface to dry. The result after drying: a clean, subtly conditioned surface without streaks, greasy film, or residue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor working on door sills and footwell corners, where dirt stubbornly settles in crevices, a more concentrated solution (1:10 to 1:15) combined with a thin detailing brush is suitable. The brush applies the concentrate into the crevices, mechanically loosens the dirt, and a damp cloth wipes away the loosened particles. This workflow works particularly well on rubber-edged door sills, where silicone-containing products often leave streaks, which the Interior Detailer Concentrate naturally avoids due to its silicone-free formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1-liter concentrate is not intended for single-use home application, but for portioned use over a long period. At a 1:20 mixture, 1 liter of concentrate yields 20 liters of ready-to-use solution — for a professional operation with 3–5 vehicles daily, this is easily enough for several weeks. The bottle should be stored in a dry, cool place; the concentrate is stable and will last for many months with proper storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAntistatic, Scent, and Surface Compatibility — What Sets the Interior Detailer Apart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe antistatic property of the Interior Detailer Concentrate is one of the most noticeable advantages in everyday use. Anyone who regularly cleans their vehicle knows the problem: hardly has the dashboard been wiped clean, it has a thin layer of dust again after a few days. This rapid re-soiling is physically caused: plastic surfaces become electrostatically charged by friction while driving and attract dust particles from the air. The antistatic agent in the Interior Detailer Concentrate neutralizes this charge after cleaning — the surface is electrically neutral after treatment and attracts dust significantly slower. The more regularly the product is used, the more stable this protective effect becomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnother aspect of the antistatic effect concerns durability after cleaning: treated surfaces must be cleaned at shorter intervals if antistatic protection is not used. Anyone who previously had to wipe down their interior weekly will find, after regular treatment with the Interior Detailer Concentrate, that bi-weekly maintenance is sufficient to maintain the same standard of cleanliness. This accumulates over a year to significantly less cleaning effort — a practical effect that goes beyond mere cleaning performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fragrance experience of the Interior Detailer Concentrate is unusually pleasant for a professional cleaner: the formula contains subtle aromas of coconut and pineapple, which leave the interior smelling fresh and pleasant after cleaning — without the sharp chemical smell of many industrial interior cleaners. For customer contact situations (car dealership detailing, vehicle handover after detailing), this is a relevant detail: the interior smells clean, not of cleaning products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentrate is not suitable for glass surfaces, displays, touchscreens, and navigation devices. These surfaces have special coatings (anti-fingerprint coatings, oleophobic coatings) that can be attacked by the surfactant formula of the Interior Detailer Concentrate. For glass cleaning in the vehicle interior, the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-innenreiniger-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Cleaner\u003c\/a\u003e is suitable as a supplement for non-glass surfaces; for windows, a dedicated glass cleaner. The clear distinction: Interior Detailer Concentrate for all non-transparent interior surfaces, glass cleaner for windows and displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInterior Detailer Concentrate Compared — vs. Interior Cleaner and SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the SONAX PROFILINE interior range, there are three main products with clear positioning. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-innenreiniger-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Cleaner\u003c\/a\u003e is the ready-to-use all-purpose spray for quick cleaning without mixing effort — ideal for frequent interim cleaning and businesses that want cleaning products readily available without measuring. The Interior Detailer Concentrate, on the other hand, is the concentrate for variable cleaning intensity — more control over strength, more economical for large quantities, more flexible in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-sensitivesurface-detailer-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE SensitiveSurface Detailer\u003c\/a\u003e is the specialist product for delicate surfaces: Alcantara, velour, microfiber interiors, and other textured materials that can become streaky or dull with normal cleaners. It is not available as a concentrate and has an even gentler formula than the Interior Detailer Concentrate at maximum dilution. For vehicles with Alcantara inserts in the cockpit or sports bucket seats, the SensitiveSurface Detailer is recommended for these specific areas, while the Interior Detailer Concentrate handles the rest of the interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA note for businesses using \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-cleanstar-ecocert-innenraumreiniger\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CleanStar \"Ecocert\"\u003c\/a\u003e: The Ecocert product is the bio-certified alternative for businesses with a sustainability focus — it contains only ingredients approved according to the Ecocert standard. The cleaning performance is comparable to the Interior Detailer Concentrate at medium dilution, but without the antistatic component. For businesses without sustainability requirements, the Interior Detailer Concentrate is the more powerful all-round choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying Interior Cleaner Concentrate — Target Group, Economy, and Recommendation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate\u003c\/strong\u003e is the main product for professional detailing businesses that clean multiple vehicle interiors daily and require maximum flexibility with minimal storage. One liter of concentrate replaces 10–50 liters of finished product depending on dilution — an enormous logistical advantage for workshops with limited storage space and high cleaning volumes. The economy speaks for itself: in terms of cleaning performance to price, the concentrate beats almost any ready-to-use alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor ambitious hobby detailers with multiple vehicles or a vehicle that is regularly intensely detailed, the concentrate also makes sense. Anyone who maintains their interior monthly and always needs the right strength for different materials will benefit from the mixing flexibility just like a professional. The extra effort of mixing is manageable with a prepared set of spray bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone using the concentrate for the first time should start in an inconspicuous area of the vehicle — especially with unknown synthetic leather or Alcantara variants. Although the Interior Detailer Concentrate is suitable for all common interior surfaces, there are variants of very old or damaged leather as well as cheap synthetic leather imitations that can react to surfactant-containing cleaners with a slight color change. A brief test spot is generally recommended for valuable interiors, regardless of which cleaning product is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentrate is less suitable for occasional users who need it once or twice a year and do not want to keep a ready-to-use spray bottle permanently available — in this case, a ready-to-use interior cleaner is more practical. As a verified SONAX specialist dealer, Detailing1 permanently stocks the PROFILINE Interior Detailer Concentrate in the 1-liter container size, which is designed for continuous professional use. Those who want to set up a starter kit for professional interior detailing should ideally combine the concentrate with a set of good microfiber care cloths in different strengths (for plastic, textile, and leather separately), a detailing brush for crevices, and a steam cleaner for intensive deep cleaning — the Interior Detailer Concentrate then becomes the chemical core that drives all these tools.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"1000 ml \/ 1 liter","offer_id":57345101037903,"sku":"D1-SNX-1993000","price":16.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-interior-detailer-concentrate_1liter.png?v=1774731865"}],"url":"https:\/\/detailing1depot.com\/en\/collections\/profiline-innenraumreiniger.oembed","provider":"Detailing1","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
