    Favorite fabric protectant

    Just picked up a new accord sport 2.0t. It has leather seats with fabric inserts in the centers. I’d like to protect the fabric, but am unsure what product to use. Since it’s only in the centers, I’d like something that has controlled application. Not looking to go overboard in terms of price.

    Thanks in advance.

    303 Fabric Guard maybe. Its the only one that I use regularly, so can't compare it to others. You also have coating type fabric protectors from Carpro, GTechniq and Gyeon

    Another vote for 303 fabric protectant. This picture is from today. 14 months ago I used the 303 on these seats carpet and floor mats. I haven't yet reapplied, though I should have probably months ago. This car sees the most use from the family of our personal cars. I sprayed distilled water on the seats to see how well the 303 was holding up. While the beading wasn't stellar, is was for it being 14 months. I did it on all four seats, they all looked the same to me as far as performance. The floor mats didn't bead hardly at all at this point. Still for something that should be applied twice a year its performance is pretty good still. Favorite fabric protectant-dscn3712-jpg

    That’s distilled water? Maybe I’m seeing things, but to me it looks all black like tar or something. I dunno.

    As far as fabric protector, I use ScotchGard. I like how it comes in aerosol can which allows you to spray directly where you want it.

    Ultima Interior Guard is my favorite interior protectant, but I have never applied it carpet or upholstery. I use it on leather, plastic and vinyl. It would be a product that you could use on your entire seat though.

    The seat right after a quick wipe to pick up the water. Where it's a bit darker is where water did soak in a little. Like I said though this has been on for 14 months though. It was still at about 40% . Not bad for something that's supposed to be applied every six months.

    Favorite fabric protectant-dscn3663-jpgThis is what 303 looks like when it's still in it's intended working life.
