While this product isn't bad, its lack of versatility undermines its good qualities. As for pros, this stuff really does smell great. It's a potent but inoffensive fresh citrus scent that lingers just long enough, and leaves a perfectly matte finish on plastic and does OK with cleaning. However, this product is not as versatile as other interior quick cleaners (like Meguiar's) as it does not work well on non-matte interior surfaces. When cleaning glossy/metal trim it leaves streaks and smudges, and does not have enough lubricity to be used on sensitive surfaces such as piano black plastic.

The instructions state that this product is for use on screens and plastic trim, but Nextzett's own plastic cleaner does a much better job at cleaning & renewing plastic (best plastic cleaner I've ever used) and works well on smells almost exactly the same. For a "cockpit cleaner", this needs to be useful on more than just matte plastic and screens. I'd skip this and get their plastic cleaner and a more versatile interior cleaner.

This stuff is great for my faceshields on my motorcycle helmets!! Cuts through the bugs & leaves the shield clean & shine! A 16oz Plexus aerosol can cost over $27! You can't get all of it out like your brand.

This product has good cleaning power, leaves behind pleasant citrusy smell, but more importantly it leaves the surface with the perfect matte finish, no residue and no sheen, just a nice clean surface.

This stuff is fantastic. It cleans so, so well, while being a one-step product. I think Gyeon Vinyl Cleaner might be better when the surface is disgusting, but then, of course, you need to follow up with Gyeon Preserve. When the car you're doing is not gross, Cockpit Premium is your best bet. I was using Sonax Plastic Care for a while, but I don't like too shiny or greasy of a surface so I always have to go back afterward. And just feel Cockpit Premium is a better cleaner.

I use this on my dash, door panel plastics, carbon fiber trim, and the plastics under the hood. It does a fantastic job of leaving going on and wiping off easily. Leaves a smooth and satin look to all materials applied to. Smell reminds me of a citrus peel. I typically use this to clean my dash and plastics before applying my Gtechniq C6 guard. Solid product.

This is an exceptional product. I am not a fan of that shiny look and always avoid products that give that finish. This product has a nice and light citrus fragrance along with a wonderful matte finish that is left behind. I have used it on the dash, seats center console and all surfaces seem to really pop now. It really finishes up a detail nicely. I will likely use this product moving forward on all future vehicles.

I used to use Lexol on my other car but it was a little more glossy than I preferred and it wasn't really a cleaner. I read all of the reviews as well as forum comments for Nextzett Cockpit Premium and since it has more of a matte finish and is water based, I gave it a try. I am very happy with the results; the finish is non-glossy and the smell is pleasant. I also like the fact that it is made in Germany as I am using it on my Porsche.

I was using 303 Aerospace after watching the comparison video above and liked the darker finish, but had an issue with it leaving streaks and stuff if water got on it in the rain or something. Decided to try this and I'm in love. Leaves a finish that just feels clean and not slippery or anything like the 303 was. I feel comfortable using this on clients steering wheels.

This is one of my favorite interior cleaning products! Works amazing on all of your plastic surfaces. This will leave your carbon fiber, smooth plastics and in dash screens completely smudge free. I am always impressed with the cleaning results as well. Leaves a matte finish with a pleasent lemon scent. I highly recommend.

Used on dash, door panels, and all other interior vinyl and plastics. Wiped on and off easily and left no streaks. It left the black interior looking really nice; cleaner, a bit deeper black and no shine. Just what I was looking for. A quick wipe down every 2 weeks or so keeps my 5 year old interior looking brand new. Leaves an okay clean, but not chemical, odor that is gone by the next day.

I've added Einszett Cockpit Premium to my detailing arsenal and have found it to outperform far better than anticipated. I use it on all of the vinyl and plastic areas of the interior and am very pleased with its matte finish. Outside of the UV and a scent that is all right, the touch is totally non-greasy, which truly makes this product a winner and must-have.

Have been using this product for over 2 years after first learning about it here on Detailed Image. As a car-guy and "pro-sumer" of detailing products and equipment, this is my undisputed choice for interior cleaning of plastics and vinyl. I cannot emphasize how much I cannot stand greasy, cheap-looking interior surfaces due to cheap products, and 1Z Cockpit works great.

Clean scent, very minimal and inconspicuous after an hour. As another poster had said, it works like it was designed for a German car.

I've used this on two cars. One is my eight month old CRZ and the other is my 22 year old MR2. On the CRZ I used it on all the plastic including touch screen and it did a great job of cleaning the surfaces and leaving them looking like new. Most of the plastic on these newer cars is hard plastic. My MR2 has a lot of softer plastic and over 20 years of good quality dressing. The Einszett took off all the old dressing and dirt. I started with 2 yellow MF towels and they ended up gray. Result - clean and looking like new - nice scent too.

IZ cockpit premium is quality stuff. It sprays great and wipes down nicely. I love the fresh clean scent and great matte finish it leaves behind. I did my wifes car interior with it and she also loved the subtle scent. She also doesn't like a shiny finish so this product is perfect. I will always have this in my arsenal either for a quick wipe down or full blown interior detail! Highly recommended!

Worked on a "clean" 96 honda civic interior, sprayed liberal amount, let it sit for 30 sec, agitated with brush, wipe off with a towel, WOW i needed two towels, it was that dirty. Took some time but that is because car was really dirty, i ended up putting a dressing on top of it, but even by itself it leaves a nice, satin, clean look!

I used this on a second-hand Mercedes E-class with black interior that appears to have been smothered in that nasty vinyl protectant that beings with the letter A and ends in "all." There was a white residue that not even a very spare application of warm water and dawn dish detergent could get out. The dash was also under a hot Texas sun its entire life, so it was hard and in need of emergency corrective measures - hence the Dawn (even though this could strip the oils from the vinyl, I was desperate). Then one day I say this Einszett Cockpit Premium product on sale at DI and I gave it a shot. This is by far, the BEST interior cleaner. Even though I'm not sold on the scent, whatever it is, I AM sold on the cleaning ability. At first, I was getting good results with a moderate spray and a normal mf towel wipedown. However, I found FANTASTIC results when using a liberal spray, then a 30 second dwell, followed by a mf towel wipedown, as indicated on the product label. To date, the dash has no more white residue and the soft-touch dense foam backing can be felt, meaning that the vinyl is now pliable again. I had a scare on a GPS screen of another Merc, but found that I was not using enough product. It also helps to have several mf towels on hand, especially when you are doing a wipedown on a convertible.

2009 BMW 328i Convertible: makes radio and steering wheel look like matte factory finish...whether or not it is actually clean or just a chemical reaction on the plastic is anyone's guess. I like the look. However, don't use it on the black dashboard nor the black upper part of the window interior above the armrest. You may get strange looking variations on the finish. For the other hard plastic parts, I didn't notice a big improvement, but boy...that radio looks factory new as does the steering wheel.

Would I buy this again...hesitatingly yes.

My Ford Edge has an 8" LCD screen and piano black center stack. Both highly attract finger prints. I have 4 oz spray bottle in my glove box filled with 1Z with a microfiber towel. While at a stop light, or in park, I can easily whip this out and make it look all new again. I even use it at home to clean my glasses and loptop screens (buy some 4 oz bottles too, they come in handy).

For interior plastics, rubber, vinyl, and pretty much any hard surface, it gets no better. I agree with criticism of the scent, but it dissipates very quickly. I love the matte finish, the ability to repel dust, and the ease of use.

I made the mistake of cleaning the steering wheel of my 328i with a protectant. BIG mistake. It looked and felt slippery. Rather than hit it with an APC, I reached for my 1z Cockpit Premium to undo the damage. I sprayed 1-2 mists on a clean microfiber (don't spray the wheel directly to avoid a big mess) while *outside* the car, then gently rubbed every bit of the leather steering wheel cover 2x. Boom! It was back to the grippy, matte condition before the Vinylex.

Overall, I think this is a 'mild' cleaner, not heavy duty that is good to have in my arsenal for selective uses. Why I didn't use it or my Meg's Quick Interior Detailer the first time......not sure.

I really don't like the smell of this product for some reason. It is not because it smells like something foul, but I just don't want the smell (which I cannot articulate) in my car. I usually don't mind the odor that various cleaners and conditioners give off. I went through about half a bottle and then switched back to the 303 twins (Aerospace Protectant and Cleaner), which I prefer by a hefty margin. Cleaning wise, the 1Z Cockpit is on par with the 303 cleaner in the dilution I use on interiors (3:1), although it doesn't finish as well as Aerospace Protectant.

I usually use MG quick interior detailer. 1Z cockpit premium was on sale, so I wanted to try it. I think it has more ability to clean than MG QID, but smells much stronger.

This is another compliment to their Deep Plastic Cleaner, and I really like this too.
It works better on less dirty plastic finishes, and does wonders to Nav screens, etc., as well. Also smells great, and leaves a nice sheen that is not plastic-like or oily, greasy, etc.. It makes my work look professionally detailed which is what I want, each and every time.. This and their Deep Clean Plastic are the two I reach for the most out of all the APC's I have, and I have alot of good ones too..
These Einzett products smell like and work like they were designed for German cars anyway..
