Suggestions for vinyl protection

[jt07]

Hey everyone I`m lookin to buy some products because I am going to detail my car and some others as a hobby and to get some extra $$$. Here`s the deal though, I`m looking for a vinyl/rubber/interior dressing or protectant, whatever you want to call it, to do the interiors. I do not like that shiny greasy look, :nono I prefer a nice "new car" look. Also, any product from a company that sells large amounts of their products would probably be a better choice for me cuz it saves $$$. For example, I like the way meguiars sells a lot of their products in gallons and stuff like that. So, if you know a good product to use juss let me know. thanks

You could use hyper dressing since they sell it by the gallons. Dilute it ever how you like to get the look you want.



I like #40 but you cannot get it in bulk and its kinda $$.

303 Aerospace Protectant is good, but it isn`t cheap.



303 Products Inc.: 303 Aerospace Protectant (http://www.303products.com/tech/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=428&CFID=14936209&CFTOKEN=82531365)



A lot of marine & boating stores carry it so you may be able to get it locally & save the shipping costs.

+1 for getting some 303 by the gallon. only plastic/rubber/vinyl i don`t use it on is my tires, and not because it doesn`t look good, just because it doesn`t last too long in that application. Great stuff.

Thanks

Stone Tire Shine is really nice looking and cheap....



Armorall Extreme Tire shine is also good, but it looks really greasy at times and it has a tendency to spray off the tires and onto the body.



My alltime favorite is Zaino.

Meg`s #40 is ok, but even it can be glossy for my taste. Do you want something with cleaning or just a dressing? 303 is ok, but doesn`t clean well. I like 1Z CP, but it`s expensive (10L for ~$100). If you want something inexpensive, you try diluting 303 or one of Meg`s Detailer dressings to your taste. I`ve used 303 that was 1:3 in water and it was pretty tame as far as gloss.

Duragloss tire and mat dressing. Leaves a dark matte finish (i don`t like greasy looking tires) and it lasts a long time.

I`ve used Meguiar`s #40 for years, 303, and a few others that I forget, but I will never use any of them again since I have discovered Finish Kare`s 108 Top Kote! This stuff is amazing. You can control how glossy it is with your application. It leaves a non-static (absolutely does NOT attract dust) coating like I have never seen.



I highly recommend this product. FK1 108 ROCKS!



Thanks to NSXTASY and others for pointing me towards this great product!:2thumbs:



And yes, they sell it in gallon sizes:

hmm, I`m definitely going to have to check out that FK 108 protectant, it seems well worth the price, I`ve pretty much narrowed it down to that or the 303 aerospace protectant. Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

You will love FK 108.



I will try to post some pictures of my interior tomorrow.

I`m going to check out the FK 108 too. Thanks, Rob.



I`m still a beginner, but so far 303 is great. I really like the look of it, especially after it`s been buffed down.
