    Quoting my own post to follow up.

    I agree with the previous posters on Aerospace 303. Leaves a great finish and is usable on other surfaces. It’s the only product I use on the dashes of our vehicles going back to the days when I had to pick it up at the marine store.

    For the tire applications I’ve started using a soft wheelwell/tire brush and spraying it onto the brush itself, not the tire, then follow up with a microfiber on any overspray on the wheels.

    I use 303 on all plastic, tires and my softopper. That stuff is amazing and you can see the dried out plastic just inhaling it...lol. Cleaned my new tires today plus 30320180411_175145.jpg

    New tires...that probably explains why the finish looks uneven.

    Very true. They didn't appreciate it as much as the plastic trim or interior of the car....lol. But I thought I rather apply it early on.

    Might as well. First rain and 303 is pretty much gone

    True but I guess by then the material absorbed what it needed.

    Chemical guys silk shine dressing. Apply it with a foam applicator. It makes the tires look clean. It doesn't give that obnoxious gloss to the tires which also sticks on forever. It takes the dirt off and makes the tires look new all the time

    What do you mean takes the dirt off? Are you referring to where the tires turn brown or aka tire bloom?

    Yeah. When tires have that brown stain on them. I don't want my tires looking all glossy. I just want them looking clean.

    That’s tire bloom. The product is only masking the issue. Need a rubber cleaner to remove.

    I really like the Lucas oil Slick Mist Tire and Trim product. It is a water based product that doesn't turn brown and lasts for about 3 weeks.

    Mink oil paste achieves a deep enriched look. Just use the same rag over and over. You will be surprised how it looks and the complements you get.

    I have used Aerospace 303 for years on our hot tub covers in Phoenix. I can attest 1000% from a seat protection stand point is phenomenal.

    I have a dash matt.

    I am not a fan of the shine, and like the protection.
