Re: Ultimate Protectant
How much UV protection does this offer? As much as 303?

Re: Ultimate Protectant
I bought Ultimate Protectant last week, tried it on all of my interior panels (dashboard and doors), my splash guard and under the windshield (don't know the name). They looked darker and wet, with shine almost like supreme shine interior detailer.. All application used APC 10:1 for cleaning the interior panels and splash guard..
I tried to washed it once, yes it looked a bit changed but a wipe with a MF works good..
I tried it on my friend's dashboard and yes, she liked it..

Re: Ultimate Protectant
UP is performing brilliantly for me so far.
I really liked the look when I first applied it and it was also non-greasy.
After two washes and one rainstorm, my trim still looks dark and feels slick but non-greasy. I think it's still got another few washes/storms left in it yet! Nice product Meguiars!

What is it that you don't like about Ultimate Protectant (UP)?
Totally agree on Edurance..that stuff is just as good as it gets. I'm to the point where I don't even think about tire care anymore...been using that product for years...although, as you mentioned...it doesn't get much attention, so I'm always afraid that one day it's just going to disappear from the shelves! It's not as easy to find as it was years ago. I don't know where it ranks in terms of sales for Meguiars.
As mentioned previously, I found UP to lack durability on my new trim. It reminded me of using that vintage armor all water based spray. I did use it on my moms neglected black trim and it seemed to perform better and last a bit longer. Just not a good product for my use.

Hard to argue with one product working an all your surfaces and working well though. Wish UQW came in gallons. While I have had very good results with UP I am sticking with UQW for simplicity.
I'm going to stick with UQW for ease of use and results as well for the trim and other plastic pieces.

It might work well on the interior..but I don't apply things to the interior for most part..but I've tried it on the exterior black plastic trim and it just disappears after a day.
Maybe some of us got a bad batch - I'm not sure. I got it when it first came out. As it stands I highly doubt I'll ever get it again - The Ultimate Quik Wax does a much better job on the exterior trim for me.
