Interior Protectant Recommendations

Gyeon Preserve is a fantastic product for an interior dressing. I tend to prefer it over 303.

Better look with it not having that sheen that 303 has. I have also restored some dried up interior pieced with Gyeon Preserve. It can be diluted 1:1 if so desired.

I have NV Guardian (12-18 month coating) on my Leather seats which I top up with NV Nourish every 1-2 months. I was told I could use the coating all over the interior so I did that too. I’ve been hitting the non leather parts with Megs Quik Interior Detailer to give it a light clean as well as top up on protection.

The NV Guardian is awesome and leaves a nice finish, but I think it’s worn off on the vinyl and plastics so I was looking for a dressing to hit those parts every other time instead of just the detailer. I’ve been using the Megs New Car Scent Protectant for this lately but want something different. Thinking maybe perl or 303.

What’s everyone using and what are your combos methods for the interior?

Out of Perl and 303 for interior dressing, I think 303 is the better product. I love Perl, but I think 303 has a nicer finish and most importantly, applies more easily without having to massage it for an even coating.

Just as an FYI, Nourish can also be used to dress interior plastics.

My interior product choices -

On my Mustang or Falcon's, I use either ONR or Meguiar's Last Touch to basically "dust" the interior and remove minor scuffs. Leather in these is treated with NV Nourish.

On my Ranger, I use Meguiar's Quick Interior Detailer as it's quick and easy to use, has some minor protection and leaves a fresh matte finish. Occasionally I will treat with 303.

On customer cars, I again use Megs QID as it saves me time. For leather on these cars, I use Bowden's leather love, this is another time saver as it cleans and protects in one step and leaves the leather with a matte finish. I did actually by a gallon of Meguiar's D180 Leather but hated the glossy/greasy finish it left.

I wonder if using products with alcohol long term (Gyeon ID is 60% alcohol) are bad for the interior in terms of drying things out? Megs Quik is also alcohol based. I haven't tried Gyeon Preserve. Optimum Protectant Plus surprised me. Really nice product other than the smell. Has cleaners, polymers, penetrating oils and UV protection. Leaves a more subtle finish than 303. Spreads evenly too. I once tried the Megs equivalent of 303 (I think it was their natural shine protectant or something like that) and it looked almost identical to 303 but it didn't spread as well and left high spots. Tossed it.
