For my review on the 303 Aerospace, please refer to here:
http://forum.autowor...h...02301&st=60This is an update and some conclusion by me.
After 2 weeks ( condition was raining for most of the days)
Plastic Black bumper
Previous:
After 2 weeks:
Can say only half of it left.
Tires:
After 2 weeks
Can't see it already
Dash:
Still good, give a nice luster look.
Well, this is my conclusion.
1) This is not a apply and forget product...for external, you have to apply it at minimum once a month. I would like it to be more durable to something like gel form instead of water based.
2) Some plastic molds do not need 303, just any reputable affordable product will do.
3) For tires, I dun think ppl will need it. Nothing beats a fresh coat of new gloss every week.
4) Great for the dash...i love it, especially since my Peugeot comes with a panoramic roof, the dash can be quite bright reflection on the windscreen if use glossy product. 303 is just right.
5) Good for rubber trims.
6) It streaks in the rain, but after 1 time wiping, it wont streak again.
7) Not for matt black stickers...doesn't stick on it long
8) I do apply it only my plastic lens headlights, again, need to be applied monthly.
Summary:
This is a good 'all in one' product...but its main purpose is to excel in UV protection and has very little negative side effects on the parts that its applied on. Durability in one thing thats questionable since it doesn't last for several weeks for external applications. So regular maintenance is required to maintain the surface.
Since ppl buy the 303 for different reasons, some use it on their boats, some on car tops, dashboard, plastic lens, some even for the engine!..303 aerospace protectant will continue to sell well even though the price is on the higher side.
For me, I'll use it for my dashboard, rubber linings, some plastic rubberized trims and headlight....but for the rest of the car like tires, black plastic molds and trims, I'll prefer something more lasting and affordable.
