303 Aerospace Protectant Reviews
Professional Detailer Reviews
303 Aerospace Protectant is a great product in every sense of the word and one that I don't see myself replacing with anything for many years to come. It passes with flying colors all the tests detailers like myself look for in such products...ease of use, quality/performance and durability. It can protect anything from tires, to exterior trim, to interior leather, and so on. It's just as easy to use on one as it is on another part of the vehicle and does a great job no matter what it protects. Also, it never leaves a glossy/oily surface that detracts from the cleanliness of the car or car part. The finish is matte and clean looking.

Easy to apply and leaves a nice finish but usually doesn't last more than a month.
Prior to purchasing another bottle of 303 Protectant, I wanted to add my voice to the ratings. I purchased a Black Tesla Model S in 2016, it was upgraded with beautiful black leather seats and a black leather and suede dash. I purchased 303 Aerospace Protectant shortly after and use it twice a year to keep the leather looking pristine. It provides excellent UV protection, the water repellent properties are great, and it is effective in preventing fading and discoloration on the leather in my car. It has a pleasant scent and it is easy to apply. 303 provides durability to my seats when dealing with water spills. The application of this product to my interior provides a pristine appearance and enhances the overall look of my car. I will continue to purchase this product and highly recommend it.
Been using 303 on my client interior vinyls for two years now, and I really like it. GG Vinyl & Rubber Dressing has been a staple for engine bays, door gaskets and exterior vinyl trim since 2017. Both are water based, I believe. Currently doing a longevity test within the engine compartment, comparing the two. Stay tuned if interested in the results. The other contender in this field is Carpro Perl, but all three probably come down to cost/ounce for viability.
Always wanted to try this product after reading the amazing reviews. Three years later I finally did, excellent product. Great amount of protection for all of my plastic parts without a great matte finish.
Absolutely magnificent product, makes surfaces look new.
Have always liked 303 Protectant - have tried other products but always come back to 303.
303 Aerospace Protectant is a great product for both light and dark car interiors. The low gloss finish is rich and long lasting. My newest use for this great protectant is for synthetic teak patio furniture. The cleaner and protectant leave a rich low gloss finish just like it was freshly oiled/treated teak. Fading is gone, Surface is slick and hydrophobic. People are amazed that the tables are years old.
The trigger broke on me, but the product is awesome. Leaves a matte finish and smells great. Also does not create static, nor does it fade easily on the exterior like most protectants
Great for interior plastics, dash, etc. Leaves a great looking finish. I compared it to CG VRP, the VRP leaves a darker finish, but doesn't seem to last as long. I would happily use both, but when I run out, I will buy more 303.
I'm not sure why this product isn't sold everywhere but all I can say is wow!
Great product, easy to use and a beautiful finish.

I got this to protect my Jeep Wrangler Softop. Works great!
First time user of 303 but I always hear great things about it! I'm a believer now and this stuff is just awesome!

I've used 303 for over 10 years. Awesome product. Always applied easy, and had exact look I wanted---clean but not greasy and shiny. Worked well on interior and exterior. Lasted forever too. But on my wife's brand new 2019 Santa Fe, I sprayed some on the instrument panel. Instantly stained it! It would not wipe off at all. Like some kind of reaction to the plastic panel and stains were etched in. Never had that happen with any of my other cars. I was able to remove some of the stains with Megs Plastix, but you can still see most stains. Sad thing is for months, all I've got was the run around from 303. No help or suggestions. I had to find info in forums on how to try to fix the damage. For that reason alone, I would not buy again.
I like how 303 Aerospace Protectant leaves a natural look to interior plastics.
Great water based protectant, I have tried many but I will stick with 303 from now on.
This stuff is awesome - It keeps interior & exterior trim protected from the elements & looking good with a non-shiny satin sheen. I also use this to keep my windsurfing sails in brand new condition many of which cost $1000/each & are almost 10 years old now.
I've been detailing my own cars and friends cars for years, and recently started my own business. I've used most of the common interior cleaners and Protestants and have always found most of them to lack durability. Aerospace has fantastic durability keeping my interiors clean for weeks to even months on lesser driven cars. It does not leave any residue and has a matte "OEM" satin type finish. If you prefer an incredibly flashy greasy looking shine this isn't for you. I've pretty much switched to 303 Aerospace exclusively for my business.
Tips to apply: clean the surface first with an APC. Then use a clean rag to apply a light coating, followed by a quick wipe and buff with a clean rag to avoid streaks. Enjoy!

Yes. Good thing Detailed image sends the little samples or else i would have never known about this product. It is sort of like Sonax plastic care but i think better, leaving a professional clean and Rich finish with deepened color depth on darker finishes that is not glossy or greasy. It is quite nice from a professional stand point.
This is the first time I've tried this product and it's superior to others I've used. I highly recommend to give a try and I guarantee you'll be pleased with the results. Very easy to apply and like others, leaves a clean appearance.
This leaves a beautiful matte finish, not over glossy, but just right, all this while screening uv rays. This is now my go to new standard for my dash, door panels, etc... Now if they could make it in different scents that would be awesome.
I use this for everything. Plastics, rubbers, black painted things in the engine bay. It's fantastic, versatile, and easy to apply.
Used many water based protection products. I keep coming back to this one.
I've bought it because of rubber but I see now that it can be used for (almost) everything else.
This stuff is great for all your interior & some exterior things on your vehicle. Leaves a nice sheen without all the greasy mess, it seems to look better the second day than the first, makes it easier to wipe stuff down later, highly recommend this product!
No greasy residue, just a nice sheen when product is whipped off. I will purchase again.
This is my go to product to use when dressing up plastic, rubber and all weather mats. It revitalizes and protects these surfaces very well for a good amount of time. I have found it best to hit the plastic/rubber surface with a degreaser or all purpose cleaner prior to using the 303 protectant as it seems to last a bit longer on a nice and clean surface.
I've been buying this stuff for the longest. Only product that I use when cleaning the interior of my vehicle. You can literally apply this on anything it's so versatile.
Good Stuff would purchase again
I applied this to my dashboard, door panels, steering wheel and anything plastic in the center console. I've been keeping up with doing this on my car with many other products. I didn't see any deep shine out of this and it didn't leave a greasy film behind like some other products leave behind. I guess this stuff works ok. I've only tried it once. Makes your car smell clean tho! :)

A lot of people focus on how good this makes plastic, vinyl, and rubber look, and how it doesn't feel greasy. You shouldn't overlook how this protects your items also. 2002 F 150, after 15 years in the Texas sun, the dash still looks new.
I really like the product. It is easy to apply without streaking and leaves a nice finish coating.
This product is great can be used for almost anything inside or outside your car.
Very good stuff, looks even better the second day, keeps the interior looking great & not greasy. Some of the best stuff I've ever used!
This stuff is flat out impressive, I use it in everything.
Great stuff! Used it on tires, interior, exterior trim. Also, used on large mailbox and fiberglass mail box post (black). Looks like new!
The only go to for interior plastic protection and cleaning. Look no further.
Good, product if used as intended.

Leaves an excellent finish on faded plastic trim. Generally lasts 3-4 weeks on exterior pieces before fading completely. I find it’s best to use a product like this on plastic trim after each wash. Also excellent on tires.
Have been a big fan of 303 ever since I purchased the large jug of protectant for my convertible tops. Whether you get the wipes or the spray 303 delivers superior protection. I only use 303 to detail my BMW Z4.
Excellent product, I have been a DIY'er for well over forty (40) years and this is the best product I have ever used.
This is awesome for tires. I've been hearing a lot about it and wanted to try it. I can't believe that I waited so many years to find this. I've tried many products for tires over the years. Many of those made the tire look good, but I live on a dirt road. So if I wanted the tires to look good again I'd have to get the apc out and completely clean the tire again before dressing because the brown stuck so much. With this stuff it still collects dust on the dirt road but I can now just whip out my tire brush and do a quick go on each tire and they look awesome again. I'm really happy with this product
Easy to use and economical while delivering great results. I have so far only used it on interiors but looks and feels great. Not greasy in look or feel.
It has been in use for just a couple of weeks so far but still looking great.

Would purchase item again. Works very for keeping leather, vinyl, and rubber items fresh. The odor of the product is very strong.
Seems to work very well. Looks very good after first application. Application was very easy. Time will tell better after is has been on for a longer period of time
Outstanding product! The cover to my pontoon boat fell apart. I needed a product to temporarily protect the vinyl seats. This product kept the vinyl as good as new.
I definitely like the way this product goes on. It leaves a great low sheen that is not attractive to dust the way that oil based products are. It also is good in that a little goes a long way.
Used this product on the dash and plastic on my BMW. It went on easy I did a little extra scrubbing in comparison to a product like armor all. Over all I was very happy with the results it left a nice light sheen that looked organic. The price was also good considering I didn't need to use a lot of product. This is definitely my new go to for an interior protectant and I'm sure I will try it on other things.
I purchased this product to use on my hot tub cover. After the first application the cover looked beautiful and keeps it looking shining and clean for a long time.
Started using on my Achilles inflatable (1988) a couple of years ago and is looking better every time. Highly recommend.
This stuff is the best out there. Used this on a Jeep soft top and made it look new again. Buy it now.
Best product on the market for protection of rubber, vinyl, and leather. We use it for all our detail work in the shop. Have been using it for a lot of years and haven't found a better product yet. No mickey mouse super shine just a nice smooth clean finish. It's an important step in all our detail work. Our customers always leave happy.
The best of its kind in the industry. Especially when used under the hood on the rubber hoses and plastics.
Got this stuff when they had a sale on 303, man this stuff is great. Used it for so many things so far, tires, trim and even the dashboard. Used it the other night on a customers car and the guy couldn't believe the look. I will be getting more if this stuff.
Just threw out my Armor-All. This leaves a beautiful matte finish while screening uv rays. My new standard.
I am total convert to 303! Best performance in every facet you'd want for your trim. Easy to use, lasts, neutral smell. No need for one product for the inside, another for the outside... Just buy a gallon of 303 and call it a day!
This product is great for our outside vinyl strap furniture. I have used it for years. It protects the vinyl and also keeps it nice and flexible
I have 6 cars @ the moment & I'm a detailing fanatic, so they all get there turn taking turns in the garage. I use this product on everything from the vinyl roofs, black bumper trim, rubber wheel well guards, weatherstripping, door panels, dashboards, etc. It always softens & protects & leaves a clean looking, low gloss shine which is perfect in my opinion. I was really impressed with the results recently, when I used it to treat all the rubber & vinyl pieces of an older car that was clean & well kept, but fragile & delicate from age. I used it under hood & on all the rubber & weatherstripping throughout the car. The results were excellent, & I recommend this product to anyone that cars about keeping their car clean.
I have been using this product since 2007/2008ish when I first used it on a renovation of an old Beechcraft Bonanza aircraft. I then used the leftovers on my dusty old trucks plastic bits and it brought both of them back to life! I was bummed when I ran out and couldn't find any more.
It wasn't until 2013 that I found this site and it had 303 AP! :) I have been steadily ordering it ever since.
Pros: It works perfectly on everything I've used it on! It lasts a long time, even on sunny car and plane dashboards. It's also affordable for how well it works.
Cons: If you don't follow the instructions you'll make a foamy mess, but just get a fresh towel n ur good and when it hits things you don't want shined...like the windshield...ug gota clean it off with isopropyl Alcohol or sumn.
All in all I'd say it's my top fav interior protectant. I've even used it on my Carbon Fiber hood in hot FL sun with good results. I recommend it to detailers and pilots alike.

I first off want to say that I absolutely love this product it has done an amazing job on everything I have put it on and kept my truck looking new from day 1. But I do have one issue.The 303 that I have in my spray bottle and in the 128oz jug has curdled and big chunks of 303 Aerospace will clog my spray bottle makes it tough to use. Are there any suggestions to resolving this problem? I keep the product in a climate controlled area in my basement with temperatures below 70 degrees year round.
The best period. I use it on everything from my tires to the engine bay. Absolutely the best product that I have ever used and lasts a long time.
Used this to "dress" my engine bay after using P21S to clean it up and after two weeks of driving around (500 miles) the engine bay still looks great. Very happy with how easy this is applied and how well it holds up.
Still the best! Have used for years. Autos, boat vinyl etc. Nothing better.
Nice smelling product. Works so far. Used it all over the interior of my car cause my car is leather. Owner of an Acura tl which is known to have cracked dashes, and this product was offered by other Acura tl owners.
I have tried everything on the market, 303 does a excellent job! It's like a all in one protectant. Smells good too.
303 Aerospace Protectant is non-greasy and low sheen. It appears to last a while, so far I like it.
Great Product! This product is an easy sell for Detailers. Works great and lives up to its claims!!
By far the best product on the product on the market for protection! I have been using this product for three years now and the interior of my vehicle still looks brand new. Great UV protection and very well worth the cost!!!
I used this on the exterior plastics and rubber on my BMW Z4. I found that while it does produce an immediate nice shine, over time it seems to have caused greater dulling and dryness on my trim.
It does seem to be good for wheel wells and similar areas where maintaining a semi-gloss finish isn't important.

Real nice easy to use low sheen product, I will buy again.
Have used this product for several years. Loving the results
Used on my G35 dash. Perfect for sunlight protection.
excellent product! No odor and it made the inside of interior look awesome!
Bought 10 spray bottles of 303 for me and my kayaking pals. We use this to protect the surfaces of poly kayaks and rubber hatch covers. Carton arrived semi-crushed and some 303 been expelled and had coated the inside of the box, wetted the bottles but none were damaged beyond use.
This is a great product. Creates a like new matte finish, which to me is very important compared to the products that produce the common high gloss/greasy finish. I prefer spraying this product onto a premium microfiber applicator pad and then applying it to a surface. After applying the product, a quick buff will make whatever it is your are detailing, look rich, clean and new.
My best advice: Those in humid climates -- DO NOT BUY THE WIPES. Buy the spray instead (this product). The wipes, for some reason, had a lot of black mold after being on the shelf in the garage (the container was closed). Since I'm not in the business of wiping black mold all over my customer's cars, I switched to the spray instead. It's very well worth it.
I received this product for free when I had a large order from Detailed Image. I must say that it is great! My interior stays clean and protected which is exactly what im looking for. The outside of the car can look great but if in the interior is dirty it ruins the driving experience. Great product for cleaning the interior as well as protecting it from the daily wear n tear.

Good product, I use for external black surfaces, wheel wells, tires & engine bay. A bit too shiny for my tastes for the interior, but still worth buying.
Such a great product with so many uses and applications. It is what so many people have come to use and love detailing their car, etc (the list could be really long since this is an amazing product!). Join the crowd and pick it today and see what all the fuss is about!
Wonderful alternative to sticky shiny Armor All! Terrific stuff. This gives a nice matte finish and cleans well. Excellent, practical product. Looks and works just as described. Excellent packaging and communication, too.
This is not a miracle product, but it does re-hydrate most plastics to original coloring. I have been using it in the Texas summer with good to great results thus far. I have also used it was a make-shift interior cleaner on hard surfaces with plus results. I haven't run into any of the running issues I read about from other users when using it on the exterior, but it also doesn't rain much in the heart of Texas.
This stuff is awesome and not just for your vehicles. I was about to replace my bbq cover and my friend told me about the 303 Aerospace Protectant. After applying the product, the cover looked and feel brand new and not faded and brittle. I saved $50 for not needing a new cover. The product will renew anything you put on. Anything faded in color will get the original color back, especially black plastic will get darkened and slightly shiny. I have made 3 orders with DI and paid for the shipping cost just to redeem the free 303 kit coupon code.
I've been using Armour All for as long as I remember. Used it on interior, and exterior trim. I recently got the detailing bug to show off my Custom Corvette. I had started to hear negatives from the forums about Armour All and started looking for a replacement product. I did a lot of research and found many positive mentions of 303. the first time i tried in on my wife's Camaro I could not believe the results. WOW, I was blown away, what a difference. No comparison to Armour all. This stuff is amazing. This is my go to stuff for all my trim and interior now.
This is an industry standart. Goes on easy, no oily feel, leaves a nice, rich looking black finish. Smells good, goes long ways, lasts a while. There is another product i like because it smells better, but i have found that this one lasts longer, i will not stop using this product.
Yes I bought this to just clean the vinyl,wasn't expecting it to make everything have a shine but looks great.
The steering wheel doesn't feel oily just a little slippery.Very easy to use.

Great stuff. I love the UV protection. A great detailer with out alot of oily and wet looking interior. It seems to hold up for a longer period of time aswell. It has a bit more shine then some other products so if a flat finish look is what you need there are other options.
I bought this to use on our kayaks. We bought them used and they have been abused.
I bought this and applied it and our kayaks look like different boats.
Last night in the water they repelled the water and their color was so vibrant.
We are very happy with this product and it will always be a product we keep on hand.
I want to use it in my older car but have not used it yet but will soon.
I am sure it will do a great job. Buy it because you will be sold after your first use.

I covered everything possible in my car with this as well as a few other cars I've worked on - it can make dried out plastic and trim look brand new. Careful putting it on your leather - it does leave a residue right after it's applied, so let it sit for a while after it has been applied.
love this product i use it mainly on my bass boat. From the gelcoat ,to the seats, to the trolling motor pedal it stays shiny.
PHENOMINAL interior protectant. Nothing out there comes close to this amazing product. I have been using it since I bought my 09 Viper 2 years ago and just purchased the gallon size. I'll use nothing else on ANY of my cars. I also use formula 303 convertible top cleaner AND formula 303 convertible top fabric guard (water repellent) on the Viper. Great products indeed!!
I have been using this product for years and always buy more before I run out. That should tell you something.
This stuff is excellent and I use it inside and out. I have used it for years and won't use anything else for al my vinyl.
I really like 303. It does not leave any residue. It dries natural and restores plastic, vinyl and rubber surfaces. And of course it's a UV protectant!
This is hands down the best interior cleaner I have ever used!!
Aerospace 303 Protectant is perfect for rubber moldings and any rubber product found on the car. I use it to restore moldings around doors and under the hood. It gives a well preserved look to the rubber instead of a slick greasy or shiny look. I use it on each and every car and highly recommend it.
This is the best protector made by man. You get what you pay for with 303. Top shelf all the way!
I purchased my car a couple of months back and while it is in good shape the engine showed its age. I used the protectant in the engine bay after using poorboy's degreaser and I'm not joking when I say it looks new. Next time I think a will spray directly on and wipe off and not onto the rag first as the directions say, so it can get into the crevices better. Nice clean matte finish and new dirt doesn't seem to be sticking even after a month. I only used it on a couple black interior pieces but got the same great result. A must have product.
I use this for trim and interior. Leaves a nice satin finish, not glossy/slippery. I've gone 3 weeks without re-applying it to my dash in the hot Florida sun. Highly recommend this, I ended up buying 2 gals!
303 protectant simply the best!
This is amazing to use on dash and al interior trim. Not tacky, no dust collection.

I've been using this for years. My 5yr old mazda 3 looked new minus scratches that were self inflicted (this stuff can't protect against sharp objects while moving, heh). I'll continue to use it until someone can find me something better for cheaper.
One great product. Applied with microfiber towel on dash and doors. Nice, non-slick matte finish with no smell. Works well on interior plastic. Should have bought the 32 oz bottle.
There's a reason that everybody likes this stuff. Versatile high quality product.
Brought a tired looking black BMW interior back to life. The pebbled material on the dash and doors now have a rich glow that is not shiny but simply better than it has ever looked. It also worked on the black leather seats, but without the impressive results that I found on the vinyl and door gaskets. I like this product ALOT.
Very nice to use. Went on easier than some others (less drag), and wiped dry nicely. Got it for my hot tub cover, but after reading all these reviews will use on my vehicles. Seems to cover better than others with less product. I did use my Optimum Car Wash on the cover first. Great product!
The only 'final touch' I put on my vehicle interior and exterior rubber trim and moulding. Not to be used as a cleaner, but a finisher, especially in the dashboard.

After reading a review on this product from the site, I decided to go ahead and get me a bottle. To test out how well the product works I decided to do half of my rubber trim (around windows and doors) and leave the other untreated. Super easy to use with a microfiber towel and the treated area definitely looks AND feels a lot nicer. Brought back some faded looking pieces to like new condition. Also, the look seems to last as well as it's been close to 2 weeks now and my trim looks just as good as when I first applied it. I'm looking forward to testing out the product on my interior as well. Price may seem steep, but as they say, great quality doesn't come cheap!
I purchased this to use primarily on interiors, but have found myself using it on various exterior trim pieces, convertible tops, engine components, etc. This stuff works great. It leaves a like new, deep black, with a little added sheen.
This product is excellent. You can use it on just about anything and it works wonders. I highly recommend this product!
S%^t is the bomb! Enough said. Highly recommend.
This is the only product that I found to remove the polish stains from the rubber seals on my car. This was after trying several products that failed. It also restored the rubber to a like new, dark finish that continues to last many weeks after applying the product.
I've just recently tried this product based on a friend's recommendation. It works great. It returned some of the black trim I had inadvertently wiped with car wax back to its original look. I'm very happy with what it does to preserve the interior of my car.
Best Product under the Sun. Nothing protects like Aerospace 303. I recently traded in my truck, and the tonneau bed cover looks just like the day I put it on, 3 years ago. The dealer thought it was brand new. Works great on 4-wheelers also, especially the fiberglass. Nothing comes close to this product.
Best product on the market. I have used this product for many years, and I absolutely love it. I have used it from day one on the dash of a now 15 year old vehicle that remains outside everyday. Not one crack, not one bit of discoloration. Looks as good as the day I bought it. I like that the product doesn't leave a greasy, oily surface like most other interior products. And, I like that I can use only a little of the product (single coat) if I don't want to lot of shine, or that I can use more (multiple coats) if I want that look. I also use it on the engine bay, tires, trim, rubber, etc. A great product!

This is my FAVORITE product for dressing tires, plastic, rubber, complete engine bays and many interior pieces (even leather in a pinch). I also spray some on a disposable wipe and rub down my wiper blades every once in a while. 303 AP is one of the MOST used products in my detailing arsenal! You will not be disappointed.
I have an 05 sebring convertable and have been using this product since day one. My top and vinyl look like new and show no signs of deterioration
I bought this product awhile back and used it for my first time this weekend. I used it on my plastic trim as well as rubber seals which all came out looking like-new. The cars were 2010, and 2011 so they did not need major fixing but just the natural shine was lacking. I applied a coat and then went back over with the rag for an even finish and great "like-new" results.
This 303 aerospace protectant is great stuff, I used it on my mothers car interior which she,following bad advice had used baby oil on the dash leaving it bleached and very dry. fortunately I was just getting into detailing and warned her of this,causing her to stop using it. After I cleaned it with Einszette cockpit cleaner treated it with the 303 I check it after about a week and it is not dry and it has slowed down the fading.
Awesome...freakin'...stuff...period. Depending on how shiny you like, you can let dwell and buff off to a nice sheen or matte finish. All while keeping the UV protection intact.
Great product, very expensive however. It lasts 4 months on a canvas boat cover that is exposed to the elements. Requires two applications for a 35 ft. Searay canvas. It also has good H2O proofing for a sun umbrella canvas.
I will never use anything else for my vinyl & interior of my cars.. Great product very easy to use!
I'm working on a car restoration project and on every rubber or black plastic parts, I use this protectant first before finishing dressing it with the Chemical Guys Black on Black. Brings out a nice satin rich black finish. Also use this on my vinyl dashboard and door panels.

Great product. Gives deeper sheen than armor all with none of the bad effects. Particularly effective on interiors.
used this on an 04 Envoy that was never treated and made the plastic molding look brand new. Defiantly keeping this in the supply box. A must have!!!!
Could be the best interior product out there.

This is one great product to use on the inside of any vinyl or rubber on any car or truck. I have even using it now on the vinyl siding and shutters on my house where the sun has faded the color. I now have a shiny house and shutters again.
Great for everything! Do yourself a favor and buy the big bottle. I wish I had because I use it on everything.
A great product in all around, be it plastic or leather. Works great to keep black dashboards dust free leaving with a matte finish not over glossy. It is great for the exterior trim as well and hold up after washes. It really seems to protect trim exposed to the sun.

This is pretty much my go to plastic/vinyl protectant. I have used it for years and sometimes I have strayed but I keep coming back to this. Outstanding protection and ease of use. Highly recomended!

Pro tip: buy the huge jug. Even though you need very little of this stuff while using it, somehow you'll find so many uses for it that you'll go through it more quickly than a Hummer sucks down gas.

The greasiness and lacking performance of similar products left me with a bad taste in my mouth. After hearing about 303 I knew it was what i was after. I use it on everything. Protects my interior and exterior plastics without the greasy sheen. In small doses it can leave a nice subtle sheen on tires.
I tested letting 303 soak onto part of my spare, heavily neglected and cracked 20 year old bmw dash. After a few weeks I pushed down on each side of a crack. It took WAY more force to cause the vinyl to crack. I was amazed. My crack free dash will be kept sprayed down with 303 at all times!

Excellent product. Brought my girlfriends neglected engine bay back to life after a cleaning. Even she was impressed. Also keeps my interior looking new. Worked great on exterior plastic that was faded and trim around my sun roof. Brought them back to black easily. Very happy with it so far.

I must echo the many other positive reviews on 303 Aerospace Protectant. I have recently used it on my 2006 Mercedes CLS 500. The results were as I expected (after seeing the hundreds of recommendations). You can either spray it directly on the surface you want to clean or get more precise and dampen a towel by spraying into it. You just wipe on. I use it on the dash and door interiors. The results are quite nice. A clean, sharp, dressed look, but no wet sheen or greasy feel. I can't say that I have tested its UV protection attribute, but I am glad that it is there. I have a few other interior detailers, but when it comes time to buy more 303 Aerospace Protectant is the one I will be refilling.
After spending hours on my customer's cars, there is always that presentation moment, where they walk up and I ask "Well, what do you think?". One of the most common responses is what did I use on the dash. Even in my own car, I'm constantly amazed at the beauty of the 303 as it glistens in the sunlight. That's right. It glistens. This stuff is awesome.
good product, not my favorite but it does darken interior surfaces without leaving a glossy finish, it's black matte when dry. it seems to be holding up great to sitting in the sun hours every day. it is good on all interior surfaces w/ the exception of radio components and leather seats where i find it streaks, i also use it on tires.
Aerospace 303 protectant is a must have for any detail enthusiast to have in their arsenal of products. I've found this product to work great on rubber trim, interior surfaces and it does a great job on engine detailing. No one likes a greasy feeling on their interior and this product does a great job of not only protecting, but giving great results without the grease.
Easy to apply, used on dashboard, plastic & vinyl trim throughout auto. Looks good, not too glossy.
Excellent for those who want a clean interior without a greasy film left behind.
Awesome for interior, under the hood, and black trim pieces. Non-greasy formula and easy to apply when using a MF applicator.
Great product gives perfect amount of shine and protects what more could you ask for. Don't use on a hot surface as it tends to get blotchy. But it says that on the package.
Great product! I was able to use it on the dash of my 06 TL and it also solved the squeaky rubber door seals!!!
Great protectant. Use it on anything from exterior black trim to the dash. Looks like new but doesn't leave greasy residue and it doesn't attract lint
I love this stuff and so do my cars, trucks and bikes. Detailed Image offered the best deal for a gallon and with the free shipping, it was an awesome purchase. Detailed Image was great to work with and I will be doing more business with them in the future.
Great on interior leather, dash board, vinyl, trim. Leaves a good not greasy finish with good protection. It is what I use if I'm not using leatherique. What is doesn't do well is cleaning clear plastic or on your radio screens/LCD screens. I use meguires interior detail for that stuff, but it rocks on everything else. A must have, my most used interior cleaner hands down. I would recommend everyone get some.
I've been using this stuff for awhile now. It not only protects, it also gives a nice finish. I recommend every car/boat/RV owner to pick this up.....and it's not limited to just car/boat/RV owners. Applications are endless! Really is great stuff.
I heard this stuff was a nice protectant so I tried it. It protects great, isn't oily, and lasts a long time. And best of all, my 12 year old faded black plastic looks brand new again. I mean really shiny, and stays that way for weeks. Heck yeah I'd recommend this stuff.
Use it on everything, even the BBQ cover stays shiny and bright, it is the best, we live in AZ And the sun is strong. Furniture looks new after 4 years...
This stuff is great and I use it on everything.
This 303 product works really well. They seem to have a great quality line-up. Nice black semi-gloss but not greasy. Seems to last better than VRT or Armor All. Great stuff!
I ordered the 303 product upon recommendation of my pool cover repairman. His firm uses 303 for maintaining customers' pool covers. I had used Armor All before, but am so much more satisfied with 303. Everybody keeps commenting that my pool cover looks like new. I hope I can preserve my pool cover for a few more years using 303, as a new pool cover costs around 2,300 Dollars and lasts, if not properly maintain, a maximum of 3 years. For my next conditioning it will be 303 again.

303 is known for superior products.
Amazingly effective.
It's all been said! Great for dashboards and other trim exposed to the sun and UV rays, as well as engine bay!
Other interior surfaces like buttons/radio/gauges I prefer to use Meguiars Interior QD (also awesome stuff).

Love this product. Simple, easy to use, and looks great. Great for convertible tops.
Like everyone else has said, buy it. Great finish and not greasy or overly shiny. I use this product on many different surfaces.
Was recommended for my hot tub cover. Quick and easy to apply.
303 aerospace protectant is not just another liquid tire and vinyl dressing. This is a reformulation with out dimethyl silicone a product known to case staining of fiberglass aero parts on cars and kill OBD 1 & 2 sensors that monitor the emission system.It should be used liberal however around any emission control parts in the engine compartment. Its great on door seals even house showers. Do you want more proof ask why it is sold at camping supply stores to coat rubber rafts and other various items. Ask a trucker who drives o degree weather aand has to depend on certain rubber parts not to freeze and become brittle.
Would I buy this again. In a heart Beat. Thee number one rated vinyl and rubber protectant for all automotive and camping use You can also use it on you windshield wiper blades to keep them clean and working in proper order. I am sure the military also has uses for its extreme use 10 stars!!!

GREAT STUFF, just use sparingly and it is amazing
Simple wowo product and keeps interior/engine bay and trim nice and clean
Yeah this the stuff for almost anything. Thinking of putting it my bath water.
I saw that 100% of reviewers said they would buy this product again but yet I was skeptical that I would set my sights too high. Wrong! This stuff is incredible and my next order will contain a big jug of this stuff. I'll never be without it again.
hey folks...did you notice that there are no negative reviews? the power of the detailing public has spoken..there is no better indicator!
When i was detailing-uneducated, I used to use armor all for many interior tasks. Now I use a good interior cleaner followed by 303 protectant and I find it looks just as good (if not better), but without the greasy feel. So far it is lasting longer than armor all and I use it many other surfaces/materials. This is a staple in my cleaning aresenal now.
This stuff Made my entire 21 y/o interior (Dash, door panels, etc...) look new again....I'm definitely gonna order this product again...next time in a larger size.
Used this product on 14-year-old bumper and door moldings making them look new once again.
A great product in all respects, be it on plastic or leather. Works great to keep black dashboards dust free. Renews black trim that looks "grayish". Also works great to quiet down interior squeaks between plastic panels.
All-around excellent product that truly restores the facotry new finish! Highly recommended! Thanks DI for another great product!
Stuff holds its weight among protectant products. I used hand in hand with Fade 2 Black, and boy does each piece really shine, it stays clean for a good while too!!
This stuff delivers as promised. Using it on tires, interior, trim. Sure glad I bought a gallon!
Fanstatic product. Amazing on fiberglass. I used it on a black 1988 boat that had never been wax, it restored the color to a like new finish.
If you dont have it, you should...I use this on not only my vehicles but friends and family too just because I feel bad that they don't have any. Very good product. Must have for everyone, hands down.
Hands down one of the best all around detail products. I love its versatility and not only that...The product does what it says!
I originally bought this just for my corvettes and camaros. It worked so well I bought a gallon and now use it on all my vehicles. After I'm done with the interior I'll take the rag and wipe it over the tires it works perfect on them also.
Best interior product I used in a long time. Not only protects but gives just the right amount of shine and most of all, it lasts.
I think the product is great, however it seemed to leave a bit too much of a treated look than I would have preferred. On the exterior though, it is great.
This is a fantastic product. I have used this on an Acura TL's interior products which are notorious for a chalky/dry look. It leaves a uniform shine without being too glossy or greasy and attracts practically no dust.
Love this stuff! Why I did not buy this by the gallon is beyond me; I will not make that mistake again. I've never used anything like this before! Awesome product!!
A very nice, easy to apply interior spray. I like how well it blends into the dash...unlike an armor-all type of spray which is very oily and is a pain to make it look even. This product spreads super evenly and leaves behind a very nice finish.
Great on tires, I like the fact that it protects my tires from the sun and makes them look nice and black, not too shiny! Hands down the best interior protection and cleaner I've used...I use it on my F-250, my wife's new Traverse and my Corvette.
Best interior protectant/dressing product that I have ever used for a car's interior. Read a lot of good things about this product, so decided to give it a try - glad I did, as I cannot imagine using anything else now. Used it on vinyl, leather, rubber, and plastic in my car; brings out a 'richness' in anything it is applied to. Not shiny, but a nice deep color. Excellent product. Can't go wrong buying this.
I buy 303 Protectant by the gallon now. It makes the car's dash, doors, seats, rubber moldings, plastic look like they have been extremely well taken care of. It does not look too shiny or greasy. I use it on every car I detail including cars in excess of 100k in value. This is a miracle product that has never failed to impress the car's owner. (I do not tell the customer what I use. I just let them enjoy the finished product while I take all of the credit)
Bought this after reading several reviews, they were right. 303 Protectant left a very natural look, almost no sheen, on my interior, Just what I was looking for. Worked great on the plastic surfaces and on my leather seats, although it did make my seats feel just slightly slick, but not really noticeable. After 2 weeks, interior is still dust free. Great product!
I love this, it leaves a factory finish and doesnt attract any dust.
303 can be used on every part of a car's interior. It leaves the dash, vinyl, leather, rubber, plastic looking very well preserved without a greasy or too shiny appearance. I use it on every customer's car from low end to over $70k in value and this product never ever fails.
I love this product.. it works well on all types of surfaces. Definitely something to bulk up on
So today I got to try out the 303 protectant I used the p21s auto wash to clean the engine directly sprayed on cleaned up pretty nice and removed oil spills. I went and sprayed 303 protectant once engine dried sprayed sparingly and wiped end results looks brand new. The owner said his engine looked brand new again. Thanks D.I.
This stuff is amazing. Hands down the best interior product I have ever used.
Good stuff, great protection... a bit thin and tricky to apply evenly on exterior trim.
Works great and seems to last long compared to other products.
Very versatile. Works great in the engine bay, as well as on rubber seals and the dash. This just drives the nails into the Armor-All coffin, in my opinion.
303 gives the car a very nice fresh factory appearance. Its the best product I have used on interior trim and gives it a nice satin natural look. It repels dust very well and after having it applied for a week, there is little to no dust on the dash board. I left a spot without any 303 on the dash to compare and the 303 is by far less dusty. So not only do you get the UV protection, you also get a nice factory satin finish that is NOT oily, and you get a product that repels dust to keep that dash looking like it has been recently wiped down even after a weeks worth of driving. Excellent Product and I will only be using this from now on.
Returns exterior trim to brand new look. Love the matte look it gives to plastic.
Wow, two thumbs up, this is a must for interior care, absolutely perfect for stuff you dont want to be too shiny.
I'm buying the gallon size next time.

the only stuff I use on the interior of my cars. not shiny, does not attract dust, no greasy feeling and the protection lasts. apply with a simple foam pad and just keep spreading around. dries fast to a clean, like new, excellent matte finish. do each car twice a year only because I am picky and want extra protection for summer and winter...probably not necessary. prefer this over Vinylex which was my go to...great stuff.
Simply the best...
A necessary item for car detailing. Try it and you won't use the competition again.
I truly can see why it's so popular and it was recommended to me as being the best, because it is the best.
I bought four different cleaners/protectors over that last several weeks. After trying them all out, this is hands down the best. I use it on the interior, for the exterior trim, and in the engine bay. I gave everything else to my little brother (he doesn't know any better).

This product is amazing! It was recommended to me by the guy who owned my 88 Mustang GT Convertible before me. He said he used it on the top every 3-4 weeks. Not only does this stuff make the top look brand new it also protects it from very harmful UV Rays. I not only use this stuff on my convertible top, I also use it on my interior and on my tires. It has SO many uses that you will find yourself using it on everything. It shines things up and also protects everything from being baked. I HIGHLY recommend using this stuff on your car and should be on the shelf of every home.
