At the very end of the description they say: "Not for use on unfinished leathers (such as suede), fabrics (canvas), floorings, clear plastics, gauge panels, or headlights."

Also, under features and details they state "All 303 Products are good for 2 years after the packaging date on the bottle". As someone already mentioned, that's a whole lot of product to use in two years.
The best. If you own a boat, 303 is essential. Thanks OP.
I bought a gallon of this in 2015 according to my Amazon. I filled my smaller spray a few weeks ago and works as good as the day I bought it. I store it in cool dark garage so ymmv

I have used 303 for years on my boat and it's cover. I primarily use it on the seats and some of the hard trim. You're not supposed to let it dry on the surface if I remember correctly. If not thoroughly wiped or you miss overspray it will leave 'wet' looking marks that will eventually go away.

I will use it in car interiors, but prefer a very mild soap/water solution instead.

I use it as a protectant as most of my surfaces are still in good shape. I reapply it regularly as it doesn't last forever. Maybe monthly depending on usage.

It is great for cleaning and making my boat cover look new, but I use 303 fabric guard to waterproof my cover. It will make water bead and run, but again, doesn't last forever.

It will make tires look good and clean too. It can help rubber stay in good shape (as previous poster mentioned wiper blades).

Lastly, for fiberglass/gel coat and automotive painted surfaces I stick with normal automotive or marine waxes for UV blocking and shine. I don't believe 303 is a replacement for a good wax job.

Essential for an outdoor spa in the sun. Plastic furniture as well. Gives a light sheen. Back packs and other items taking a beating from the sun.

If you are spraying this in the lower center dash areas of a car, don't accidentally get it on the floor mats or pedals.

20+ years of experience of using this product:

1) Its amazing for soft vinyl/rubber surfaces.
2) Will not bring back dead surfaces to life
3) Kind of okay hard surfaces like plastic bumpers, but will wash away with enough water
4) Will make your car mats and steering wheel slick
5) Wipe off the product after application to get rid of shine and leave a matte sheen.
6) Very little product is required, more is not good in this case.
7) Water based product, not the same as armour all
8) Works as a great matte tire dressing (expensive though)
9) Do not spray on clear plastics ( it will spot the surface permanently
10) Works great on outdoor furniture.

I bought it to use mainly for the following:

1) restore fading on plastic side trim/panels found on exterior of many modern vehicles.
2) restore fading on Pelican boxes that have been faded by the sun.

I don't believe it will work well as both of those are hard type plastics. Do you agree?

I will likely just return back to Amazon if that's the case.

It will work to bring back the sheen, but being water soluble it will not be durable and will require frequent reapplication. To get a wow factor restoration on hard plastics try the cerakote ceramic wipes system. It had great performance and is also quite a bit more durable.

Thanks, that looks more lasting for sure. Currently $11.81 + tax w/ S&S and 20% coupon. For 10 wipes. Which might be good for a couple vehicles.

Scotty Kilmer says to use some spray on your cv boots. I can't find the video. But i found a other that says spray 303 on them. Will keep them soft and prevent cracking? Sounds good cause cv boots and stuff like that costs lots of money to replace. What say you folks?

It wouldn't hurt, but I highly doubt that anyone would be doing it often enough to actually help things significantly. Under the car, they get exposed to lots of dirt and splashing and a protectant probably wouldn't last all that long. Plus, CV boots generally last quite a few years already so I just don't see that being much of a factor. I'd say that the age of the rubber and motion involved will be their downfall eventually and something like this probably wouldn't help much. I certainly wouldn't spend time regularly getting under the car to polish them up with 303 anyway … but maybe if you happen to be already down there doing other things, then why not?

Awesome. Thanks for the info!

Dilute urethane with some turpentine then apply can also protect and shine fiberglass doors that are fading from the sun with that mix

Quote from REEB7 :
If you want a killer engine bay product, check out Koch Chemie Motorplast. After you clean the engine bay and rinse it, you can just spray it on the wet engine bay and let it dry. It has "plasticisers" in it so it coats it. Best stuff.
So I used a bit of 303 in my truck engine bay (mainly just some plastic covers), and got maybe 5% of the total engine bay surface area. What I did do is already dusty after like a week or two. Doesn't look as bad as it did, but there is a LOT of surface area and if I were to do it by hand it would take hours and hours.

What I want to do is clean out the engine bay with a pressure washer, but I don't want to screw anything up. From what I saw on YouTube, so long as you don't use like a <15° nozzle, are further away with the nozzle, and potentially also cover harness connectors with plastic bags it's not that big of a deal to use a pressure washer in the engine bay. Still scared... but my God does the engine bay look bad (any areas I didn't touchup by hand).

Yes, and you can use just a hose too. Just get a brush and cleaner to agitate and loosen the dirt up. Then just rinse it off. But the Motorplast is for the plastic and metal components, the whole engine bay. And it stays looking great for many months.
