Title: Aerospace303
Post by: Joesson on June 13, 2018, 23:02
For your consideration.
As the title I found this product during my "research" and read some more about it here:
https://www.autogeek.net/

Intrigued I bought it here:
http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/interior/303-aerospace-protectant/prod_366.html?page=1#tab3

So far I've used it on most things plastic, rubber ( NOT the wiper blades!) and vinyl inside and outside the car, including the roof after cleaning that with a soft nail brush and FairyLiquid.
I've also put it on the light lenses.
My 2 doesn't see much UV / daylight as it lives mostly in the garage so I cannot really tell how good it is but the surfaces look and feel pleasantly different, brighter, newer.
It was on my car a on DD and didn't attract any adverse comments.

I use 303.

I like the "there, but not there" look and feel.

Just does what it says, freshens things up to look showroom fresh, no artificail slick and slimey look.
Also acts as sun screen for your stuff.

I like it, a lot.

There are different products that they make so you need to check which one you want and order the right one for you.

That looks like the one Del and I have, there is one that is used for UV protection on hot tub covers.

I used it for the first time the other day under the bonnet and in the engine bay and was very impressed with the look which is subtle but does really does look better.

When I first looked at this it seemed to be about £17, currently a good price on amazon.

Recommended.

Well, I'm pleased you all agree, I'm wondering if I take @Ardent (https://www.mr2roc.org/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=20018)  's  suggestion  about sunscreen very literally and try some on my follically challenged pate  ;)

How bad are the lights Jane? If theyre not too badly gone, would it be worth having a go with t-cut first?

Their not too bad at all but as I've borrowed the polisher from a mate at work and I did them last year, I know the results were excellent.  I must this year just ensure I seal them which is why I brought the sealant.  Then Foxy will look shiny from the front too! :)
