Has anyone used this? I noticed it contains Isopropyl Alcohol. Wouldn`t any alcohol be bad for leather?

Dual-purpose products (Vinyl+Leather, cleaner AND protectant)

don`t tend to do any one thing well, as it comprimises results to be versatile. I prefer seperate products. The 3M appears to be

geared towards the `regular` weekend detailer.

SorryI can`t offer any specific help on that 3M product. I haven`t used that product. After I found 303 I kinda stopped looking. Before the 303 I was using Meguier`s #40 and Mother`s Back to Black. The 303 imo is superior to both of these products.
It leaves a nice clean matte finish on my dash and shines well on tires too.

I also use 303 now. It is a fanatic product that renews the appearance of both vinyl and leather. It does not contain any

distillates ( non-flammable ). It also is states to have UV protectants in the formulation.

If you have a marine shop in your area you can purchase the 303 there. No need to order and save some shipping cost. Also some professional paint suppliers carry this product. Nevertheless, your best bet is at a marine supply shop. :cool:

Make sure you get a big enough supply of that 303, if you like it enoug you can use it for your dash, your tires, your interior plastics, etc... I use the stuff all the time and layer it, I really like it.

303 is some great stuff! I sometimes don`t do this enough, but we all should recommend buying from the sponsor of this site, www.properautocare.com, a bit more.

I second Don2000, If unable to find locally CMA is great in terms of online ordering, info on shipping and most important of all turn-around time of order placed. I ordered several items on a Wednesday and they were at my door that Friday( Fla to Va). :bounce
