The Koch Chemie is by far the best interior dressing I’ve used in the 15 years I’ve been detailing! Leave the absolute perfect factory finish and smells awesome👍
I appreciate you taking the time to make these videos while you're also running a business. I'm in NC, and trying to find a space like yours to start doing what I love. You're an inspiration for people you may never know or meet. Thanks, J.
@@imjoshv I appreciate the ttime you take to explain different products and have personal opinion on them can you make a video of best leaf blowers or whats best to dry a car
I use the 303 on my truck's BakFlip cover. It does a fantastic job and my neighbor came by and asked why I got a new cover for my truck. I told him I just use 303 all the time. He is now using it.
Living in FL, the most important aspect of a protectant is longevity. With the sun constantly beating down on the dash, it’s essential that I have the UV protection, and to have it Last at least 4 weeks. I mostly use 303, but would definitely try the Koch Chemie. I use some of their other products, and they’re flawless.
I like a factory look also. However I don't want my car to smell fruity so I tend to steer clear of products with those scents. I've been using Megs for a few years now, I've been happy with it. Love these head to head videos, I really value your opinion on products.
Meguiars quick interior detailed is the best OTC interior product to use. Smells good, oem finish, UV protection, cheap and readily available. Can use on just about every interior surface and screens come out prefect
FWIW, I used original Armor-All on my '73 Triumph TR6 starting in 1974. As of 1987 when I sold it, it had no cracking on the dash. I wish I still had it.
Can you make a video of car glo putting it on then what it looks like days later??? Really trying to see how it holds up before buying it great video!!
I have to say, I bought the 303 and I think it is too prone to streaking for my liking. I bought Adam’s Interior detailer and liked it way more than I thought. I like the minimal amount of shine it provides to the finish and it’s great if you need a light clean on a well maintained interior.
Nice review looking forward to long term results. Been using 303 for maybe 18 months and its been fine. Have been using inside and out but maybe going to switch to cerakote outside that I saw in another of your reviews it looks like good stuff. 🙂
Thanks for a basic test that showed the before & after. I have been looking at Gyeon dash cleaner, 303 dash cleaner & then the 303 product that you have shown in this video to seal in the colour, next was the German cleaner that keeps on popping up on some detailing products.
I have a video idea you should make a video where you show all of your favorite product brands for all different sections so like what’s your favorite soap, favorite wheel, dresser, tire cleaner, rim cleaner, detail spray, etc. It would also be very helpful because I noticed you use a multitude of different products.
Love the channel. Would love to see Griots make more appearances on your channel. They’re a local company for me and it’s my go-to for most things detailing related, though, always curious to see how it stacks up against other stuff.
I use CG Total Interior but as a light cleaner not so much as a "dressing". I do use 303 for the dressing look buuut I have noticed a bit of dusting. The KC Top Star and Carglo do look good and if they have anti-static properties, even better. Thanks!!
Thanks for sharing your expertise with everyone. I just picked up a McKillans stubby with swivel and Black Max 35' hose. As pertains to this video, I use 303 Aerospace Protectant (not glossy) and Vinylex (glossy).
Try Koch Chemie Top Star or CarGlo Clean and dress. Both have anti static properties and carglo has told me that they dont have any off gassing type of effect on windows
Thank you. I was just looking for a matte/satin finish cleaner and found your video. Ever heard of or tried sonax matte dashboard cleaner? Was there a follow up results video? Thx!
Josh que piensa tu sobre ocupar e VPR de chemical guys para El tablero porque yo tengo casi 2 años ocupándolo siempre para e tablero y el baúl del carro per también lo utilizo en las llantas
Bro...I love the content...but I use technicians choice inside and out thanks to you. So modern cars have materials like leatherette or actual leather that are coated. The detail spray works great 👍
The 2 products that I use regularly are the 303 protectant and also Chemical Guys Total Interior. I tend to use 303 on the dash where the sun hits hardest, and then Total Interior on everything else inside (steering wheel, center console, and my faux leather seats...because Tesla...lol).
Hey Josh appreciate all the work you put into these videos. I use technicians choice for interior, does that have any UV protection or can I use both the technicians choice with one of these? Thanks!
Thanks for the thorough video. Now if we could only validate manufacturer claims of UV protection.. 303 is great, currently use Mckees Graphene Interior Shield. I'm intrigued by the Koch Chemie.
I’ve been using vrp by chemical guys for about a year now because I can use it for exterior trim and interior protectant, I’ve been looking for a cheaper one that can be used for exterior and interior like vrp.
Do any of these have different off gassing properties? I’m tired of the windshield getting greasy residue from dash off gassing. Wondering in the protectants off gas as well
I got a pro flow pressure washer from chemical guys and wanted to upgrade the hose but don’t know what kind of quick connection I need to fit in the machine and the wand that came with it
Just looked for the follow-up video and it looks like you never made 1. Curious what the long-term results were, maybe it wasn’t worth making one. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Armor All is cheap for a reason, but it didn't cause dashes to crack "back in the day". I don't use it after discovering better products. But dashes cracked because Detroit was cheap. Cars that had never had Armor All used in them would crack. After awhile Detroit refined their dash builds and they don't crack as bad as they used to. They build their dashes completely different than they did "back in the day."
Hey man love your content. Just had an out there question though, never see any Shine Supply products on your channel. Idk if theres a reason for it but I’ve used there stuff for a while and I find there chemicals to be far superior to pretty much every other brand.
I like Mags hyper dressing...its water based, can be diluted, use inside or outside and is also UV...idk how much and maybe some of the products you mentioned may have more UV protection is it but Hyper Dressing is very versatile.
Something to take into consideration maybe in a better test, see which stands to the test of time. Armor All has a pretty bad rep. I use meguiars but I`m looking to upgrade the products I use on my cars I plan to keep them for a pretty long time and want to take the best care I can. One of my cars is a 1999 Rav4 5 door version and it was badly treated by its previous owners so I want to restore as much as possible and keep it nice, its a really nice car. So maybe test which one lasts the longest? which one will actually protect and restore the dash instead of just covering it with some oil compound and make it shine or make it look better for a moment? I don`t like the idea of taking so long to clean and detail my car interior plastic just to have it with dust sticking to it and/or the product fading after just a couple of days (which is what I feel that happens with Meguiars)
Hi! I totally agree with you… I actually filmed a 6 month update to this video to see how they last! ruclips.net/video/sgn83T31vao/видео.htmlsi=PPfTvpKF0X0JrUIB
I have Meguiar's Ultimate interior cleaner. I haven't used it yet. My late cousin gave me his father's Camry to me. I'm the 4th owner of the Camry. The Camry is a 2000 Camry LE. My cousin's father was a cigar smoker so was his grandson. So what I did was I took a wet paper towels and ran over everything that was vinyl. All this brown tar came off just with wet paper towels. The dashboard has faded. Doors not so much. The Camry as a whole needs alot of work. It's a challenges but I aim to restore the Camry as much as I can. I'm a beginner detailer. I keep my interior as clean as possible. Nothing stays in the Camry of any importants because I live in a crime area. I probably will stay with Meguiar's interior cleaner. Thanks much for your video.
The dash (notorious for cracking) on my '88 IROC is nearly flawless (a few minor scrathes), For the first few years I used Armor All and then switched to a Turle Wax protectant for a few years. (The TT was a clear spray which came in a clear bottle--it left a very glossy finish.) Then for many years I used Meguiars and or Turtle. Of course, I also always put a windshield screen protector when parked in the sun.
Maybe you should just worry about shining that gold chain around your neck that people can see easily since you wear a tank top to go with that T-top IROC ca. mid-80's.
Great video Josh. Which type of interior dressing and UV protection is the best while economical is one of the things I’m struggling in my business at the moment. Wondering what’s the difference between the car glow and their Aqua Shine as well I think they have a Super dressing? A few of my clients like the Shiny finish from VRP. But I hate the bad glare reflection once the sun hits the dash.
I felt like if you left the armorall alone you would've gotten better results. The armorall has gotten me consistent results, a nice matte finish and cleaning, on pretty much any material I've used it on. . .I've used 303 and meguirs. 303 always feels like everything is moist . . . its not the best user experience. Megiurs is great and smells great.
@IMJOSHV - Car Detailing and Reconditioning Tips it's the inside and out Protactant yellow label, works well for the exterior plastic trims aside from the dash and other surfaces
The best for the steering wheel is to not use any protectant because they can add lubrication and that's dangerous. Use cleaner only. As for the mats I also don't recommend it for the same reason but you can do whatever works for you.
The Koch Chemie is by far the best interior dressing I’ve used in the 15 years I’ve been detailing! Leave the absolute perfect factory finish and smells awesome👍
Thank you for tyring out and reviewing our 303 Protectant product!
Great products! Thanks

Your response is inspiring honestly!
303 is my absolute go to for everything in my truck that isn't leather and all the seats in my boat. Absolutely fantastic stuff!
I use the 303 on my truck's BakFlip cover. It does a fantastic job and my neighbor came by and asked why I got a new cover for my truck. I told him I just use 303 all the time. He is now using it.
I use 303 not only on the dash of my car, but on rubber seals around my house.

I used 303 for awhile never streaks for me very happy with the product
I've been using various 303 products for years....never been disappointed.
303 protection for me. I use it on the interior, and even the rubber on tires.
I like a factory look also. However I don't want my car to smell fruity so I tend to steer clear of products with those scents. I've been using Megs for a few years now, I've been happy with it. Love these head to head videos, I really value your opinion on products.
I have to say yes Armor All did tend to crack dashes back in the day at least on my mom’s car, this is a great comparison Josh 👍😁
Meguiars quick interior detailed is the best OTC interior product to use. Smells good, oem finish, UV protection, cheap and readily available. Can use on just about every interior surface and screens come out prefect
None have proper UV protection..... Look Project FARM testing on these products.....
FWIW, I used original Armor-All on my '73 Triumph TR6 starting in 1974. As of 1987 when I sold it, it had no cracking on the dash. I wish I still had it.
Been wanting to try the Koch once my Turtle Wax Inside Job runs out. The Turtle Wax has been surprisingly good
Thanks Josh for another great video and for giving this old man and others your knowledge of car detailing
303 is my go to
It’s a great choice

You should do best interior cleaners, especially with the CarGlo products. Looking for a good interior cleaner or APC. Thanks Josh
Great video once again. I’m a 303 guy. But was impressed with all of them. Even Armor All has come around a bit.
I have a video idea you should make a video where you show all of your favorite product brands for all different sections so like what’s your favorite soap, favorite wheel, dresser, tire cleaner, rim cleaner, detail spray, etc. It would also be very helpful because I noticed you

Love your videos. Have been using a lot of the product and tools you review. Here you forgot to add that applicator sponge which I was interested in.
Love the channel. Would love to see Griots make more appearances on your channel. They’re a local company for me and it’s my go-to for most things detailing related, though, always curious to see how it stacks up against other stuff.
Yup also, Griots is at local auto parts stores here in San Diego they have shelves of griots products.
Thank you! This really helped, I want my interior looking shiney, clean and new 😁
cant wait to see results after some time. i also vote for griots in future testing. budget friendly, and in stock locally
I use CG Total Interior but as a light cleaner not so much as a "dressing". I do use 303 for the dressing look buuut I have noticed a bit of dusting. The KC Top Star and Carglo do look good and if they have anti-static properties, even better. Thanks!!

Meguiars xpress spray wax works very well on interiors
Good job my friend!!! perfect video!!
Thanks a lot!
Im a big fan of the 303 and the Turtle Wax Inside Job
Thanks for sharing your expertise with everyone. I just picked up a McKillans stubby with swivel and Black Max 35' hose.
As pertains to this video, I use 303 Aerospace Protectant (not glossy) and Vinylex (glossy).
Hey Josh, I've found ArmorAll to vapor over time onto the windows. Do like 303 results but a dust magnet. Hmmmm.
Try Koch Chemie Top Star or CarGlo Clean and dress. Both have anti static properties and carglo has told me that they dont have any off gassing type of effect on windows
I truly enjoy your videos ❤❤ what do you recommend to clean the windshield on the inside mine always looks streaky 🙏
Adams polish Brillant glaze
Have you reviewed cleaners and dressing for vinyl convertible tops? My 1973 Buick centurion has the original vinyl convertibletop
What’s your take on mothers VLR. I love this stuff. Matte finish. Good scent. Not greasy and repels dust
CarGlo fire shine is awesome for inside and out
Off gassing after sun exposure is my only question.
Took your advice and purchased the Koch Chemie Top Star; I couldn't be happier!
Thank you. I was just looking for a matte/satin finish cleaner and found your video. Ever heard of or tried sonax matte dashboard cleaner?
Was there a follow up results video?
Thx!

Hi, did you have the update from the product test?
I'd like to see a head to head with your go to Technicians Choice...
Bro...I love the content...but I use technicians choice inside and out thanks to you. So modern cars have materials like leatherette or actual leather that are coated. The detail spray works great 👍
Please try wax shine leather nourish!!! Include it in these videos
Do a video on the best way to clean a white Tesla interior. thanks

What do u use on rubber and black trim exterior?
Another great video as always
Hey Josh appreciate all the work you put into these videos. I use technicians choice for interior, does that have any UV protection or can I use both the technicians choice with one of these? Thanks!
I do the same in most cases! But if you want to add a dressing and actually darken or restore the color, these are great options!
Thank you!
Thanks for the thorough video. Now if we could only validate manufacturer claims of UV protection.. 303 is great, currently use Mckees Graphene Interior Shield. I'm intrigued by the Koch Chemie.
Non offer good uv protection.... Look up ProjectFarm on RUclips..... He did a test on interior dressings......
Hey Josh. What do you think of Kcx Ts on the steering wheel. Also do u have a link to those applicator pads
I know there are tons of interior cleaners out there but you should’ve use chemical guys VRP!!
I’ve been using vrp by chemical guys for about a year now because I can use it for exterior trim and interior protectant, I’ve been looking for a cheaper one that can be used for exterior and interior like vrp.
Do any of these have different off gassing properties? I’m tired of the windshield getting greasy residue from dash off gassing. Wondering in the protectants off gas as well

You’re right! If you dilute down enough you can get a pretty matte finish.

what’s a good like mat non slip product so it doesn’t look faded?
@imjoshv was there an update to this interior side by side demonstration?

Only issue is that you don’t need uv protection Becuase your windshield filters out all the uv. Not the case with classic cars though
The dash (notorious for cracking) on my '88 IROC is nearly flawless (a few minor scrathes), For the first few years I used Armor All and then switched to a Turle Wax protectant for a few years.

i like your reviews there good
As far as uv protection tho??🤔🤔
can you dilute the 303? If so what’s the ratios
Can you dilute the Koch Chemie TS?
I felt like if you left the armorall alone you would've gotten better results. The armorall has gotten me consistent results, a nice matte finish and cleaning, on pretty much any material I've used it on. . .I've used 303 and meguirs. 303 always feels like everything is moist . . . its not the best user experience.

what about feel of the panel after applied?
The Turtle 🐢 Wax brand Protactant is slept on, it works extremely well and it's not expensive at all
which one do you like from them?
@IMJOSHV - Car Detailing and Reconditioning Tips it's the inside and out Protactant yellow label, works well for the exterior plastic trims aside from the dash and other surfaces
You forgot VPR so far best one I use even great for tire wheels
which is better the 303 or Technician's Choice?
U are the GOAT!!!!!
ArmorAll always worked for me and all of them but the first I never tried it
303 has been tested by multiple channels including the uv protection, which it offers basically none, and neither do a lot of other products.
So whats better, Top Star or Leather Star, and whats the difference?
Can you dilute top star?
Is Top Star water based and is it dilutable?
Have you tried chemical guys silk shine?
I have! It has a bit tpo much shine for me for interiors, but i have used it as a tire dressing
Are these “interior” vinyl wrap safe?
Anyone use CG VRP on the inside?
What's your go to for Teslas with that annoying black interior?
Can top star be used on steering wheels and floor mats?
The best for the steering wheel is to not use any protectant because they can add lubrication and that's dangerous. Use cleaner only. As for the mats I also don't recommend it for the same reason but you can do whatever works for you.
