the spray stuff? cause i have it, i just wasnt sure if it was safe to use on the 06 leather.

As with any product you should spot test it. I don't know about the 06 leather but I use lexol on my 02. I will be looking for something new as soon as the bottles run out.

my main concern is if i have to take any special precautions with the different dash and seat material.

The dash is vinyl and the seats are leather. I use DP Interior Surface Protectant on my dash. I noticed you are bothered by dust accumulation and this stuff helps stop that. Even the best vinyl protectants leave the surface a tiny bit greasy which makes the dust stick. The DP leaves the driest finish on vinyl I've ever seen. The dashboard has been noticeably less dusty since I started using this product.

As for leather . . . right now I'm using Zymol leather cleaner and Zymol leather conditioner. It leaves a nice matte finish on the seat. A forum favorite around here is Townsends leather products. Some other leather products that have come highly recommended to me are Four Star, Sonus, and Meguiar's (the Aloe ones).
