what do you guys use to protect/shine your vinyl in your boats. Looking for something non greasy and not slippery, especially when wet..

The 3M works great, looks great. Took a few years off of my 01 interior. It is slippery, though. I haven't used the 303 yet. So far I am willing to put up with the slick for the look it gives :)

i dont mind when it's slippery either, but the kids have a hard time. Although last year at steamboat i went ass over tea kettle from the engine lid to the floor. Didn't even touch the rear seat. Just layed down there for awhile, laughing my ass off at myself. Little pride check...

I thought the 303 is a 3M product. I dont use it on a regular basis but when I do I us the 303. Good stuff.
Havent tried any of the Maguires but every product of theirs I use is good.

Call Brian and tell him you need vinyl sealant. (951) 283-9274. He's a distributor for Mark V which is Mothers commercial line. He'll get you a bottle of the best cleaner/sealer available for cheap.

What is the best cleaner out there. Got back off the water on Sunday and noticed "mystery stain" on back seat. Round, blue gray, won't come out. Any and all suggestions much appreciated.

Call Brian the guy I mentioned in the above post. He's got some stuff that will get ink out of vinyl.

For the mystery stain...try the "magic eraser" from Mr. Clean
or
If it's really bad..try a hand cleaner w/o pumice and gently work it in. Dab with a cloth and then apply your cleaner/protectant.

Waldo - tried the magic eraser - that thing has saved me more than a few times in the past. I'll give the other rec a try as well - thanks.

Maguires vinyl cleaner and conditioner in the blue bottle. Used it on my '92, and really made the vinyl pop back to life, w/o the slippery. Most boat stores sell it....

No, not there. You will find it at larger marine stores. Or, you can order from Overtons.
