Has anybody used Gummi Pflege before? It apparently restores your rubber door seals etc. BMW used to carry this product in-house for the Z3 but discontinued it.

I know GM has an alternative for their Camero. While I did try it on my old MR2, it worked a bit but the application was horrendous. eShine.ca sells the Gummi Pflege for under $8 (before shipping.) Ken, have you tried this and/or do you sell this product?

Thanks!

I have some that I use from time to time but I find applying the product a PITA because of the "shoe polish" type dispenser. Its impossible to dress some trims with it. I normally just use 303 or one of the other dressings with an old foam applicator pad.

More details on the 303, please!

303 Aerospace Protectant. Available at Canadian Tire. It's like $13 or $16 ish.

303 is not available at ctire anymore, it got replaced by autoglym vinyl and rubber

well 303 is still available but just not from Ken.

Just get the AG one, it works the same and Ken's local so you'll get it the next day.

303 is pretty decent. It does the same thing as Armor All without the glossy shine. I usually use it for my dash and does a pretty good job. I'm far too lazy to protect my door seals (even though I probably should).

bcrdukes - I got a little bottle of 303 kicking around here if you want to try it out.

What I'm really trying to is to revive the t-top and door seals on my MR2. I no longer drive the vehicle and it is garaged 100% of the time. Rather let it sit and rot away (and because this is rainy Vancouver) I would like to take preventative measures to save the seals as best as I can without having to fork up a solid $800 to $1000 to get new seals.

303 or AG Vinyl and Rubber Care works well to preserve your seals. You can spray it on a MF and wipe down your seals quite easily.
