Scotchguard your interior

Quick question!
Has anyone used Scotchguard on their seats and or carpet floor boards? I'm saving up for seat covers but in the mean time I want to protect my new truck!
Thanks for the help!

 

Yes, I use it on all my cars. Works great.

 

^perfect! thanks

 

One can should cover the whole interior.

 

(Scotchguard "you are" interior)? I did that and it might have helped on a few spills. After a few months it won't bead up water.

 

yup... missed that one. typing too fast... I think I'll give it a try.

 

do i need to spot check the fabric first? how is it holding up... i bought some scotch guard auto

 

Any tips on keeping the stock leather seats lookin pretty? My driver side is getting wrinkles in it from getting in/out

 

Don't slide out and wear the leather on the bolsters. The leather will wrinkle over time regardless of how careful you are but not sliding over the bolsters will help more than anything else.

 

I use 303 fabric guard. Works great, and doesn't get quite as scratchy as scotch guard.

 

You right... I just got some side steps put on after 10k miles, so hopefully that helps some

 

+1 on the 303 Fabric Guard instead of the Scotch Guard.

a 32oz bottle was just enough for all the seats in my double-cab.

 

I did my seats in just under a 16oz-er I think.

Your mileage may vary.

 

Clearly! I made sure I got pretty good saturation and also did seat backs, edges, and all sides of headrests (outside the truck). Finished the last headrest with the very last of the 32oz bottle.

 

Just get some nice seat covers. That Scotchguard stuff can sometimes fade the colors of the seats. Some don't even bead liquid off. Plus that shit is bad for you.

 

do you have any suggestions for some nice covers

 

I applied scotchgard to seats (front & back) plus head rests, did a fabric spot check and had no issues. I figured it couldnt hurt.

 

I got some nice seat covers (the Oasis PU leather ones but now having second thoughts - my '21 TRD has airbags inside the seat at my left shoulder - I can't imagine that going off and being confined inside the cover, doesn't sound healthy. The only seat cover I saw that is compatible are the flat ones that are way expensive and basically just sit on top of the seat and don't wrap - and are crazy expensive. Would have like more protection but now I'm thin king to scotchguard (303) and hope for the best. The 303 for exterior fabrics, I assume, is what you guys are using? they don't have one specifically for auto fabric upholstery that I saw.

 

i wouldn't use that stuff. it's incredibly toxic and is a "forever" chemical.
