what do you guys think of Scotch guard fabric protectant?


Is this stuff as good as other brands?

[Dr Oldz]

While it is very good, I prefer 303 fabric guard. Last much longer and repellant dirt and liquids much better.

You talking about the spray can??, it does a decent job at protecting carpet, and fabric especially if you perform a thorough deep cleaning every few months, though there are better out like chemical guys fabric guard, etc but if you only detailing your vehicle and maybe a few of your family members then scotch guard is the way to go without breaking the bank

Is this the Scotchgard product you're talking about:

If so...Here's its MSDS:

Comparison with 303 Fabric Protector's MSDS:

IMO:
If you're looking for a auto fabric protector based on petroleum distillates...Then, in my book...The above 3M product is just as good as at least one other brand.

[FUNX650]

yes. this is the 3M scotch guard.
OK.

When you've had an opportunity to view its MSDS...
Would you be so kind to tell us your opinion of this 3M product? Thanks.

I used Scotchguard for many years but was never happy with it's durability or water resistance on cloth seats. After 2 years, my initial application of 303 is still going strong in my Daily Driver. I just don't see the point of SG when there are a few others out there that last 10 times longer and do a better job.

303 rocks...long lasting protection

Not sure if serious, Bob. Does the average consumer even know how to read an MSDS sheet, let alone know the chemical makeup of the ingredients they are reading about?

I certainly wouldn't call any member of a detailing forum,
such as AGO's, an average consumer.

And that would include AGO forum members: sito,
as well as yourself.

You must be a retired computer engineer. Something along those lines. Theres gotta be some excuse for your quick knowledgeable responses

[frankprozzoly]

What about 303 leather protection?

[Kingston]

Agree, but what does that have to do with knowing how to read an MSDS sheet? I was the class president of my auto body 2 year course, have gone to 3 different detailing "schools", shop has been in business for years, and MSDS sheets have never been spoken of at any point. I once worked at a factory and they mentioned in the training video where the sheets could be found hanging on the wall near the restroom, and the room fell asleep during this time. Not saying they are meaningless, just saying nobody knows how to read them, nor care to learn, it seems.

I use MSDS sheets all the time. There was a point in time when Sara Title III was enacted that every company that used a hazardous material were mandated to send them in with an emergency response to their local fire department. What a pleasure it was to file those. Days have certainly changed. The government went from not caring, to an over re-action back to very little oversight.

IMHO: Then the "schooling" regarding MSDSs (and SDSs) was incomplete.

And:
Any Business that deals with chemicals; and is not in compliance with the:
US Dept. of Labor's Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations:
Standards-29 CFR 1910.1200... :eek:
