Door scuffs and 303 Protectant... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

PetrolioBenzina · 11-04-2018, 06:40 PM

I kick the crap out of my lower door due to limited space where I park and my difficulty with the contortions needed to get out. I've tried various methods of fixing (hiding, really) the scuff marks and the best by for so far is 303.

303

YMMV.

Isn't that bottle too big for your purse?

His purse might be bigger than yours.

Dammit, now I have a craving for pork shumai.

You may notice there are various sizes available. The smaller bottle did both the car and my purse.

I carry mine in a manly satchel and use that stuff all over the car. Everything that is vinyl
or plastic inside and out I use every time I wash the car. I buy it by the gallon on Amazon.
That and their fabric guard on the seats a couple times a year.

The 17 seats seem to stain more easily. Going to try the fabric guard, thanks.

I'm going to put 3M clear guard film on my door sills. Has anyone used Scotchguard on the seats? I'm concerned about them because here in Florida I wear shorts most of the year. Some types of leather start to show the oil from your skin after a while.

What's wrong with a bit of patina? Oily stains tell a story..
