Looking for the best UV protection. I am guessing 303 or the Ultima Protectant, but perhaps there are others? Would be used on the dash/doors and my "leatherette" seating.
Thanks

Ultima is some pretty solid stuff but if you dont want to go spend those bucks, Megs interior protectant w/ scotchguard has never done me wrong. It's readily available, and leaves a nice non greasy finish....and it's cheap

+1 to Ultima. I have been using it on almost everything because I love the way it feels to the touch--like a chinchilla's belly.

Details Pro Interior Serface Protectant is my fav. Goes on nice, protects nice.

I believe 303 touts offering an SPF 40 ingredient, not sure of the others.

Mother,s VLR works nice on dash doors and leather seats good for about 30 days
I believe 303 touts offering an SPF 40 ingredient, not sure of the others.
I always wondered what that means, for instance, for a dashboard:
- SPF for a sun lotion is roughly a ratio between the time you can stand in the sun without getting a sun burn without applying anything and the time you can stand if you apply the lotion (SPF 40 means 40 times longer);
- how does that translate into a car interior? If it stands 30 days under direct sunlight without harm, it will stand 1200 days if you use 303?

I agree with the last post. I just really like the look of 303 . Doesn't streak at all and leaves a nice satin, non greasy finish.
I've been interested in trying Meg's vinyl and rubber cleaner/conditioner. It claims to offer uv protection. Does anybody have any experience with this product? How does it compare to 303?

I kind of alternate between Ultima and 303. For me it really depends on how often I will be re-applying. Ultima should last ~3 months where as 303 is gonna be good for ~30 days. I have no facts to prove this but I FEEL like 303 protects better for some reason. And I also prefer the look of 303 slightly over UIGP

I use two products for interiors.
Either UIGP or PERL. For those that like 303 upgrade to perl... After diluting it's priced better also.

Anyone ever use the turtle wax F21? Is this stuff any good?

I like Blackfire Interior Protectant. It claims to have UV inhibitors and it dries to a nice low-gloss satin finish that is non-greasy and dry to the touch. I ordered it on a recent BOGO and really love it.

I agree, I did the same thing and tried it out on my Vette this weekend. Its really good stuff, not 100% matte like Ultima, but very close and it deepens black more. No odor either.
