The best thing to use for particles on the paint is paint cleaning clay. Try Clay Magic, which is available at Pep Boys and other automotive specialty stores. Be sure to spray a generous amount of the spray that comes with it or use Meguiar's Final Inspection to lubricate the surface prior to using the clay. Work a small area at a time. If you have never used clay before you will be amazed. The surface will be absolutely smooth when you are finished.

Do yourself a favor and quit using Armorall! It is NOT good for vinyl and is certainly not good for leather. I won't even use the stuff on my tires. The best cleaner/protectant for vinyl is Vinylex. Vinylex is also great for tires. Use Lexol cleaner and Lexol conditioner for your leather. Try to find the Lexol starter kit that includes a spray bottle of the Vinylex, Cleaner and Conditioner. You can probably find these locally or you can order on-line from http://autosupermart.com/
