Default Wow, don't use Meguiers on the inside trim.

My God, I used meguiers on my centerconsole and doors and dash and it did not go well...my center console looks horrible, faded, and same with the rest of the trim...on the dash it turned white.

Any suggestions on what to use?

I think just a damp cloth is the way to go.

OMG..are you serious???? i guess you now already know to NEVER use wax on plastic! for a quick fix you can just spray some WD-40 on a rag and wipe down the affected areas. it will look better instantly and remove most of the wax, but it wont last forever! Ive used this where ive gotten some wax on exterior trim and it works for a little while. not sure what if anything will remove it completly!

I use some turtle wax f21 nano tech super protectant interior cleaning formula!!
Dam thats a long title huh but it works!! It also has uva/uvb block!!
I suggest you throw that away and try something else that works!!

Edit: Also a damp cloth might clean it but it might still look dull and it wont protect against the sun!!

Use some Dawn dishwashing liquid and a damp towel to clean up the mess.

Funny, I didn't mean wax, I thought it a given that I was refering to their interior cleaning product.

To Clarify I used there Vinyl/rubber/plastic spray...it has really been horrible on my interior.
