    Favorite fabric & upholstery protectant?

    What is your favorite?

    I am completely open to suggestions. Doesn't need to be the most economical but the most effective, but economy value will be taken into consideration.

    I have been using a product from a local company but feel there are better products available but have not tried any.

    All suggestions are welcomed.

    Thanks

    303 is actually the one I have been considering. Love the protectant. Do you know if the material can be damp when applied or completely dry?

    How long does it typically last on a regular business professional's vehicle? Construction workers vehicle who's carpets see a lot of dirt and mud.

    Thanks for the replies guys.

    I believe most suggest a completely dry surface for best and longest protection. Perhaps the dampness slows drying or dilutes the formula ???

    Dry for sure, comb carpet with a brush one direction, apply, comb the opposite direction about 15 minutes later, apply, that will treat all sides of the fabric and should last around 3 years, although I've never done long term testing with it since I was using something different until I moved, but my customers are reporting good success with it so far, only about 4 months

    G|Techniq I1 is great but the fumes are terrible until it cures!
