That's a great question for a 303 Chemist. Here's the link to the 303 website page for this product. There's a FAQ and a way to contact their customer care staff.

For comparison, UV protection is clearly stated for 303 Spray Wax right on on the main product page.
Another great question for 303. Here's the link to send them a question.

I know there are others who will disagree.
I would say this could be for some graphene products - hard part is knowing how to know?
The chemist behind this formula has attended 2 of my car detailing classes. I've gotten to know him and I trust him. I'm just speaking for myself.

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
Got a reply from Gold Eagle Company support, actually pretty fast, within 2 hours of me sending them a message. Here's the reply to the question I asked:
"Thank you for reaching out to us. When applying 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating, there is no need to use any drying aid. However, once the product has been successfully applied, any other protective/cosmetic product can be applied as a secondary coating.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there are any questions."

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
I did not polish the car, put on two coats of 303 about three weeks apart in Jan, then followed up about 60 days ago with a quick wipe of carPro elixir, going on month 7, 6000 miles and a tremendous amounts of bugs that wiped right off , still looking good.

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
I kind of wonder if graphene will be the next silica and be found to be a health risk?

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
Here's a follow-up to my initial impressions of the 303 documented in Post #112 back in June...
I just used the referenced 303 for the first time on a complete job... A motorcycle detail job. Previous to this complete job I had only used the product on a set of motorcycle wheels and a small test section of a painted fender. The primary characteristic of the 303 that I noticed then was it's "sticky" or "grabby" nature when wiping off and the non-slick nature of the finished parts.
That hasn't changed. It's the nature of the product.
Nevertheless, I decided to give it a more determinative test. I used my 2002 Harley Softail Deuce as the test specimen.
I have to say that I am really impressed with the final results. The bike looks phenomenal... The paintworks, the chrome, the plastic, even the matte black control housings.
If you can get by the non-slick attribute of this product, it impresses in every other sense. When I say "non-slick", I'm comparing to a typical wax or sealant. It's not that bad, it's just not as slick as your typical wax or sealant.
The ease of use can't be beat. Just wipe it on, let it haze, and wipe it off. As the haze time increases, so does the "stickiness" during wipe off, but as you develop your process with the product, it's no big deal.
I found the best method for wiping is to initially wipe in a single direction by placing one hand on top of your wiping towel and using your other hand to pull the towel. This will remove the bulk of the hazed product without the towel rolling or twisting under your hand like could happen if you wiped in a typical one-handed manner. Once the bulk of the hazed product is removed, follow with another clean, fresh towel and finish buffing in a typical manner.
Following this usage of the 303 on my bike, I think it was a good choice. Good enough that I'm now more inclined to try it on a car in the future.
Great Product!

My feelings exactly. Like you said, other than the "Non-slick" thing, it's performing better than most other products I've used. My black paint is definitely 'deeper' and it even masked some minor wash-marring...flat out took it away.
Like Mike mentioned in his review, the 303 appears to have a high solids content which is noticeable in its resistance to marring.

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
Ordered some from Amazon, none of the local stores seem to carry it. Went to Wally World, O'Reilly's & AutoZone. It will be here Monday. It's going on the Kaw 1100... & maybe the Camaro, doubt I will use it on the SB Honda.

Re: Review: 303 Graphene Nano Spray Coating
Trying to find a drying aid as it is not slick while drying. Tried a graphene detailer. Not bad. Tried some diluted flex wax. Pretty good.
Any other thoughts on a drying aid? Ceramic speed shine? Meguiars ceramic detailer? Ech2o?
I do feel like 303 delivers strong protection. Went on a road trip recently and the car faced some rough conditions. The nastiness and bugs washed off very easily.
