We Say
Bring back that factory-fresh interior look. Restore natural colour, add UV protection and leave dashboards with a beautiful satin-matt finish.
There's nothing quite like stepping into a freshly cleaned car, particularly when the dashboard, door panels and interior plastics have that lovely, factory-fresh appearance. The trouble is that everyday use, sunlight and dust can gradually leave these surfaces looking tired and faded. A good interior dressing is the finishing touch that helps bring everything back to life.
Koch-Chemie THE FINISHER InsideCare is designed to make that job straightforward. Rather than simply cleaning away dirt, it cares for and protects unpainted interior plastics, helping maintain their appearance and prevent premature fading. It's a simple way to keep your cabin looking smart without spending hours on the details.
What we particularly like is the finish. Some dashboard dressings leave behind an overly shiny, greasy appearance that looks anything but natural. InsideCare takes a different approach, creating a subtle satin-matt finish that enhances the colour of interior plastics without making them look excessively glossy.
That colour-enhancing effect is especially welcome on black and dark grey trim. Over time, these surfaces can start to look a little dull, even when they're perfectly clean. InsideCare helps restore a richer, more even appearance, giving the interior that freshly detailed look.
There's a useful protective benefit too. Koch-Chemie has formulated InsideCare to help protect against UV radiation and fading, which is particularly important for dashboards and other areas exposed to sunlight. It also helps prevent new soiling, making it easier to keep the interior looking its best between cleans.
Application couldn't be much easier. Simply apply a small amount to a soft sponge, spread it evenly across the appropriate plastic surfaces and allow it to dry completely. A final buff with a clean microfibre towel leaves a tidy, uniform finish. There's no complicated preparation or dilution required.
We'd recommend starting with a properly cleaned interior, especially if the surfaces are heavily soiled. A dedicated interior cleaner will remove fingerprints, grime and old product residues, allowing InsideCare to be used for what it does best: finishing and protecting the plastics.
One important point is that InsideCare isn't intended for every surface in the cabin. Koch-Chemie specifically advises against using it on navigation displays, instrument dials, high-gloss trim or safety-related components. Keep it for suitable unpainted plastics, where its satin-matt appearance and protective properties are most useful.
For us, THE FINISHER InsideCare is exactly the sort of product that makes maintaining a nice interior more enjoyable. It brings out the natural colour of the plastics, provides useful protection and leaves the sort of understated finish we prefer. If you want your dashboard and interior trim to look clean, cared for and factory-fresh, this is a lovely product to finish with.

How To Use
1) Clean the surfaces:
Make sure the dashboard and interior plastics are clean and free from dust, dirt and old product residues. If necessary, use a suitable interior cleaner first and allow the surfaces to dry.
2) Apply to a sponge:
Apply a small amount of InsideCare to a clean, soft foam sponge. Avoid applying excessive product, as a thin, even layer is all that's needed.
3) Spread evenly:
Gently work the dressing across the unpainted plastic surfaces, ensuring even coverage. Pay attention to edges and textured areas without allowing product to collect in gaps or recesses.
4) Allow to dry:
Allow InsideCare to dry completely, as recommended by Koch-Chemie. The drying time will depend on the amount applied and the surrounding conditions.
5) Buff to finish:
Once dry, polish the treated surfaces with a clean microfibre towel to achieve an even, natural-looking satin-matt finish.
Top Tips:
✓ Clean interior plastics before applying InsideCare
✓ Apply using a soft sponge rather than spraying directly onto the dashboard
✓ Use a small amount and spread evenly
✓ Allow the dressing to dry completely before buffing
✓ Use a clean microfibre towel for the final finish
✓ Always test an inconspicuous area before use
✓ Do not apply to navigation screens or instrument dials
✓ Avoid high-gloss surfaces and safety-related components
Important: Do not use InsideCare on steering wheels, pedals or other controls where a dressing could affect grip or safe operation. Koch-Chemie also advises against application to navigation displays, instrument dials and high-gloss finishes. Always check surface compatibility before use.
