    Once it's caulked, no saving it. Need to get new , and then use protectant to keep it form happening again

    yep I use the protectant on the interior. I even use it on the leather in my fiancees 4runner. Haven't seen it collect dust. I was always a meguiars guy till I heard of 303 on here and gave it a try. I am very impressed. I also use the speed detailer and tire balm. When I run out of adams car wash I'm gonna give the 303 car wash a try. I use it on my shocks too hopefully will prevent rusting

    Would this 303 work on the rubber on the windshield? I noticed today that it's all getting slightly faded and getting that brown look to it, along with every other black plastic on the truck. Including windshield wipers lol

    ye
    yep I use it on all the rubber trim outside and the wiper arms. I don't know if I would use it on the wiper blades themselves the 303 protectant doesnt work well on glass. On glass it looks rainbowy kinda like getting armor all on glass does

    Ice Detailer. Works great. Been using it for years. Just do the paint and the black at the same time. No build up.
