303 Aerospace protectant? How to apply it?

Hey everyone... needs some tips on applying this stuff to my leather seats and dash.

I just bought a bottle (been sitting on the Lordco shelves for ages), and tried it out.

Do you guys find that it leaves a thin glossy glaze or film that makes the seats more slick/slippery? Also, do you find that the spray is uneven, and gets the stuff all over the place leaving uneven spots!?

Thanks.. any advise on common usage would be appreciated.

Got to use a small sponge applicator. Put just a little on and dont leave enough on the inside such that it shines.

I apply it with a cloth then go over it again with a clean cloth.

I've found a small sponge works well to apply the 303. You can get in the nooks and crannies of the dash a little better with a sponge. Then I go back over it with a clean cloth.

So the spray is pretty useless then.

The splatter caused by the spray makes it VERY useless.

How does the 303 look after application?

I have yet to use any protectant on my dash. The dash is supposed to look flat.....and I even believe the manual mentions against using "glazing agents"....whatever that is.


Does the 303 look shiney?....or flat.

It brings out the black color a bit more, but is definitely a flat look.
