    Is there a good product to use on the factory hard tri fold covers for appearance and UV protection? My local dealer parts dept. does not offer anything.
    I've tried Chemical Guys VRP and was not satisified with the results on appearance.

    Thanks
    Steve

    I have a reminder set in my phone for every 4 weeks to apply 303 protectant. One year in Sacramento sun still looks brand new.
