Had the opportunity to use the next 303 product that was part of the 303 giveaway.
Link to the product.
303 Automotive Trim Restorer Protectant
Product description
Rear of the box
Sides of the box
The kit includes 4 oz's of product and a foam applicator.
The product is a white liquid. It is a thin and watery type consistency. So very little product is needed. I massaged it into the foam applicator with my finger prior to application.
I applied this to the front trim of my dad's 02 Camaro Z28. It's known to fade over time.
I did wash the entire car prior to applying 303 trim restorer. The directions just say to apply to a clean surface. Surface prep consisted of Meguiar's D103 APC+ with a Mothers detail brush. I followed up with an IPA wipe of the trim. This is completely optional but I wanted to ensure that there was nothing on the surface that would not let the product adhere. I then applied the 303 trim restorer. I did not follow up with a light buff as the directions state to let the product dry.
50/50
Closer shot of the 50/50
Here's the finished trim piece right after application. It gives the trim some sheen. I will have to see how it looks after sitting all night to see if it retains that sheen.
Overall I had no issues using this product. A little product goes a long way. It dries in minutes. The bottle has a flip top lid on it. I felt that the opening on the flip top lid was a tad to large especially considering that the consistency is thin. Other than that I enjoyed using it.
I would recommend using gloves with it as the product will eventually make it's way to the other side of the applicator.
I shall see how long it holds up and if it lives up to the 6-12 month durability claim in the California sun.
