Interior Scrubbing PadTwo-Sided Nylon & Microfibre Pad
Pack Size
£3.00 per pad — 29% cheaper than buying singles
Two tools in one small pad. The nylon face agitates grime out of textured plastic, upholstery and carpet — the stuff a cloth just slides over. Flip it and the microfibre face wipes away the cleaner and everything it has lifted, so you are not putting the pad down to find a cloth mid-panel. At 11 × 12cm it sits comfortably under your hand and covers ground fast. Spray Logic, scrub gently, flip, wipe.
At A Glance
Why You'll Love It
Interior grime doesn't sit on top of a surface, it works down into the grain of moulded plastic and the weave of a seat. A cloth slides over that. The nylon face gets into it and lifts the dirt out.
Bristle side does the work, microfibre side takes the residue away. One pad, one hand, no reaching for a cloth with a wet grip halfway through a door card.
At 13 × 8cm it fits the palm and covers a door card or a dash in far fewer passes than something smaller. Broad surfaces are where this earns its place.
£11.99 for a four pack works out at £3.00 each against £4.25 for one. Most jobs get through pads quickly — having a stack means you're always picking up a clean one rather than spreading grime from one surface to the next.
What Does An Interior Scrubbing Pad Actually Do?
Exterior cleaning and interior cleaning are different problems. Outside, dirt sits on a hard, smooth surface and a chemical plus a rinse will take most of it away. Inside, there is nothing to rinse and almost nothing is smooth. Grime works down into the grain of moulded plastic, into the weave of a fabric seat, into the stitching on a door card.
Spraying a cleaner and wiping with a cloth moves the top layer and leaves the rest exactly where it was — which is why an interior can look clean and still feel slightly greasy under your fingers.
Agitation is what solves that, and it is the step most people skip. The nylon bristle-type fabric on one face of this pad is stiff enough to work down into a texture and bring contamination up to where it can be removed, but soft enough that it will not scuff vinyl or mark trim. It is doing mechanically what the cleaner cannot do chemically.
The second face is what makes it a tool rather than just a scourer. Once the cleaner has released the dirt, that mixture is sitting on the surface, and if you leave it there it dries back down as a film. Flipping to the microfibre face and wiping immediately is what turns a scrubbed panel into a clean one. Two actions, one pad, no swapping.
"A cloth cleans what's on the surface. Interior dirt isn't on the surface, it's down in the grain. That's the whole reason this exists."

How To Use It
Interior surfaces need a lighter mix than most people reach for. Start weak; you can always go again. Spray the surface and the white nylon face of the pad as well.
No heavy pressure. Small overlapping passes. On fabric, work with the weave. On textured plastic, work across the grain so the bristles get down into it instead of skating over.
Turn to the microfibre face and take away the cleaner and everything it has released, before it dries back onto the surface. This is the step that decides whether the panel looks clean or looks hazy.
On a heavily soiled panel there may be more residue than one pad face can hold. A General Purpose cloth finishes it off.
Rinse the nylon face in clean warm water between heavily soiled areas so you aren't spreading dirt. Machine wash at 30°C with Duel Laundry when the job's done.

| Best at | Getting through a lot of surface quickly | Control on a specific spot, and reaching into gaps |
Same two materials, different tool. This pad spreads force across your palm — ideal when there's a door card, a seat base or a whole dashboard to cover. The mitt concentrates it at your fingertips, for a stubborn mark or a gap that's narrower than your hand. If you do full interiors regularly you'll use both in the same session. Browse both at Interior Scrubbers.
