Before and after top with 303 Aerospace protector

There was a break in the rain this afternoon, the sun came out!

So I washed the vinyl top and then rinsed and dried it and then sprayed and wiped off the 303.

I think it made a huge difference, can't wait to see how it performs in the rain!

Before and after pictures.
I did nothing to the pictures at all besides made them smaller so they fit better here.
Notice I failed to wipe the stuff off the body at the bottom of the second picture, wiped it off after I saw the pic...

RickB, that really turned out good! I've gotten the 303 on bright trim and painted surfaces and it's never caused a problem. Your top looks new again.

Looks great! but FWIW I have no desire whatsoever to see how my top performs in the rain. I don't even have a desire to see how well it folds up.

303?

Aerospace?

Performs in the rain?

Expecting meteor showers? :jester:


Never heard of the stuff, what's it supposed to do.
 
OK so my almost new top that has been folded up under the tonneau cover for the past 3 years has oxidation on the windows already. Got a solution for that anyone? Just about zero direct sunlight as car sits in garage rest of the time.
 
Check this out. I've used it and it really works

PlastX by Meguires works good too for the clear windows.
It's something I have used and recommend, I am sure the Mothers product is at least as good.
