Being a new car ('06 ZR, magnetic black), I decided to spend the extra money and buy RaggTopp cleaner and vinyl protector. I haven't yet used the cleaner.

Today I used the vinyl protector inside the car. I did some with the RaggTopp and some with Armor All. I couldn't tell the difference. They seem like the same product. I really can't see the reason for spending twice the money on the RaggTopp.

I suspect that as enthusiasts we get taken in by specialty products.

I have no idea what raggtopp is, but armor all is crap. aerospace303 protectant is the only thing that should touch your interior or any exterior vinyls/plastics.

 

^^ +1 !!

dont use Armor all.. It'll look really greasy and cheap after awhile! get some 303 aerospace!

 

Armor has alcohol. Alcohol is bad for the liver and surfaces. Also I don't drink therefore I will not use alcohol in my body or my Z.

 

I've been using Armor All on my motorcycles for years. Doesn't look greasy or cheap. There may be a difference in products, but I often think the biggest difference is in our heads.

armor all is too slick - read how dash treated with it are prone to cracking in the longrun.. 303 or lexol is the best way to go. For a ragtop, I'd recommend 303 as well.

I think you are referring to the old forumla when it was oil based. Armor All is water based now and I have never had an issue with it.

Raggtopp is made for treating convertible tops. (I have a ZR). I've ordered some 303 and will try it.

is the 303 off the shelf or do you have to buy it on line? If so where is the best place to order?

 

Try auto supply stores for 303. Think I saw it up local NAPA store.

 

[QUOTE=Ken Corsun]I just finished using 303 on the interior of my ZR. It is much better that the Armor All I had used previously. It is not as shinny and does not seem greasy. I'm a convert.

[QUOTE=Ken Corsun]cool!

 

[QUOTE=Ken Corsun]It's true. When you open and close your top with Armorall you'll see grease all over your rear window. You don't get that with 303. It also last much longer. I have a bottle of Armorall which only goes on the tires until it runs out.

 

[QUOTE=Ken Corsun]showstopper saves the day again. jk glad you like it.
