Sealents Versus Zanio

I have been a zanio fan for a long time. Unfortiently, my new baby is on her way and well dealing her for the first time is going to become a major issue.

Ideas? on which to use for her first time after clay bar and such?

Also, any interior tefon protection that should be done?

I use 303 High Tech Fabric Protectant on the cloth portions of my seats. I suppose you could use it on carpets as well. Maine are black so I didn't see a need. 3M Scotchgard is also available in an sutomotive formulation.

yep, 303

I've also used the 303 Fabric Protection with great results.

I haven't used the 303 protectant on the inside of a car yet, but I plan to when my MINI arrives. I do use it, however, on my canvas patio furniture with great results. The 303 fabric cleaner and fabric protectant are great products (but a bit pricy).

I can get them locally at a Smith and Hawken store (upscale gardening), but I think that marine stores would also carry them.

care car products..........

I'm a fan of Griots Garage products (www.griotsgarage.com) but it's a personal thing I admit. I used to use the "Z" stuff but nowI use all their products including the sealer and detailer. They have a great book on car care that is worth considering even if you use other products............................(MTR ON)..................................mgg
