303 Aerospace Question?

I bought this 303 Aerospace for my Interior, like the Door panels and dash. Lets say for all the Vinyal parts of the Interior. as I use Zaino for all my Leather areas. Now I wanted to know before I apply this to my G. Will it be all shiny? I don't want that wet glossy look like say Armorall Would give you? Does the 303 Dull out, or become more natural looking? or will it stay wet looking? I heard alot of recomendations for this stuff. just want to make sure it's not all shiny! LOL. Thnx MIKE

303 gives a nice matte look that keeps the car looking new. I always get comments on how new my car still looks when people enter. I love it.

Its not glossy, but it has a "new" look to it.
It also doesn;t seem to dull out, I would usually re apply every 1-2 weeks. Just because dust would collect on my dash.
You'll like the product alot!

yep, not glossy. the finish is awesome, just don't apply it to contact surfaces, like any other protectant. like said above, it makes the surfaces as new and provides UV protection.

I would describe it as a satin look. Slightly more "sheen" than the bare finish but not at all glossy. It's a very nice look and the claimed protection is desirable.

I've never used 303, but I've seen pictures, and I've read my descriptions of what it does.

I can't find it in any local store, I can only find it online, and it seems pretty expensive. Autogeek sells the 16oz bottle for 12.99

based on what I've seen and read, I don't think it's worth the hassle of ordering it online, paying an inflated price, and shipping charges. I've had what I believe to be similar results with Mother's interior protectant. That sells in a 24 oz bottle for 10.99 on Autogeek, but I think I've seen it cheaper at some other places.

Here's how it looks



Just my two cents.

You guys spray on the wipe off? Or spray onto a cloth/microfiber/sponge then apply? Spray gets everywhere.

Always spray on the applicator and then apply

Just fold a 16 x 16 MF towel in half twice. Fire a few spritzes onto one side, then rub it on the dash. Then turn the towel over to the dry side and buff off the residue.

Okay. I thought there was some special applicator or something. MF towels seem to just soak up the stuff and you end up wasting it. Foam sounds like an idea.

FWIW, I like mf because I can give it a firmer scrub than using foam
