303 Aerospace Protectant

UV Protection That Actually Works

303 Aerospace Protectant uses powerful UV blockers to defend vinyl, rubber, and other marine surfaces from the sun’s relentless damage. Regular use provides 100% protection from UV-induced slow-fade, which is the gradual discolouration that happens even when surfaces are not exposed to direct sunlight. Whether your boat sits at the dock under a Bimini or on an open trailer, the sun’s UV rays are at work. 303 stops that damage before it starts, keeping vinyl boat seats supple, preventing Bimini top material from becoming brittle and cracked, and maintaining the appearance of fenders and outdoor furniture year-round.

The spray dries to a clear matte finish, so it won’t leave a glossy sheen or attract dirt and dust. It restores lost colour and lustre to faded surfaces, bringing vinyl and rubber back to life. For boat owners in Canada who deal with extended sun exposure during summer and the dry cold of winter, 303 is an essential part of preventive maintenance.

Safe for Marine Surfaces

303 Aerospace Protectant is safe for use on all common marine materials: vinyl, carbon fibre, rubber, plastic, and finished leather. Whether you’re treating Hypalon inflatable boats, wet suits and dry suits, tires, RV EPDM rubber roofing, helmets, visors, or goggles, this product won’t damage or degrade the material. It is formulated to protect without leaving residue, staining, or causing discolouration over time.

This broad compatibility makes 303 a one-product solution for protecting multiple surfaces on and off your vessel. Treat your vinyl seats, Bimini, and fenders with the same formula you’d use on your helmet or gear, knowing each surface is being properly protected.

How to Apply

Application is straightforward: spray 303 Aerospace Protectant directly onto the surface, then wipe dry with a soft cloth. No complex buffing or extended drying time is required. For best results, apply to clean, dry surfaces. One application provides protection; reapply seasonally or after heavy washing to maintain protection. The formula works quickly, so treated surfaces can be used immediately.

Marine Applications: Boat Seats, Bimini Tops & Fenders

Vinyl boat seats are constantly exposed to sun, saltwater spray, sunscreen residue, and sand. These elements combine to cause fading, cracking, and deterioration. 303 protects against all three problems by blocking UV rays and creating a barrier against environmental contaminants. Regular treatment prevents stains from sunscreen and repels dust and sand, making seats easier to clean.

Bimini tops take a beating from year-round UV exposure. In summer, intense sun breaks down the material and causes fading. In winter, dry cold makes canvas and acrylic brittle and prone to cracking. 303 keeps material pliable in cold months and provides consistent UV protection all year. Treated Bimini tops also shed water more effectively, and 303 makes snow and ice removal easier when winter storage is not an option.

Boat fenders are functional but often overlooked in maintenance. UV exposure causes rubber fenders to harden, fade, and crack, reducing their effectiveness and lifespan. A light coating of 303 protects fenders year-round and keeps them in working order. Beyond the waterline, apply 303 to side-out seals, rubber railings, and any other marine rubber that sits in the sun.

Outdoor furniture on docks and patios benefits from the same protection. 303 prevents fading, cracking, and chalking on plastic and vinyl furniture, keeping outdoor spaces looking maintained even in high-sun environments.

Beyond the Boat

303 is not limited to marine use. It excels on RV EPDM rubber roofing, protecting against UV damage and extending roof life. Dry suit and wet suit enthusiasts use 303 to maintain material pliability and extend the life of expensive gear. Off-road and powersports users protect helmet visors, goggles, and gear trim. Caravan and campervan owners treat canvas, rubber trim, and exterior plastic. Wherever UV protection is needed and material compatibility is a concern, 303 delivers results.
