I purchased a gallon of Protectant 303. I was just wondering how many items on the Prius (outside and inside) that Prius owners use this on. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. It seems to do a good job on the tires. Steve
I use it on anything that's plastic or looks like it's plastic. I haven't had any problems with it yet, the dashboard, the pieces around the windows inside and out, etc. I haven't used it on the bumpers or the spoiler or other stuff that's painted with "car color paint" because that gets regular wax. But I've been thinking of using it on the front bumper to make it easier to get the bugs off?
Tumbleweed Thanks for the info! I polished my Prius last weekend and was planning to do all of the other external stuff (plus inside stuff) this weekend. Steve

As tumbleweed said, use it on anything that looks like plastic, rubber or vinyl. Can't hurt to try it on anything. On glossy surfaces it won't look so hot, but on anything with at least a bit of texture, there is nothing better. Use it on most of the interior, the rubber "all weather" mats, the weather stripping on the doors (this is the PERFECT stuff for that!) and of course the tires and splash guards. Whatever you use it on will basically last forever. My cars tend to look better ten years later than new cars right off the showroom floor. When my mother saw my Prius after four months of ownership, she said "it looks like new." I took offense and pointed out all the ways that it looked quite a bit BETTER than when I brought it home from the dealer. Your interior will never look better than after a 303 wipe.

For the exterior, I apply after a wash. Do you prepare the interior before applying the 303? I read that some folks on dust first. Steve
