I would like to buy 303 Protectant in a gallon size which is UV40. Will the UV protection decrease within a year or more if I don't use all of it?

I would say you are safe for a few years easy. I asked the place where I buy it online and the guy said shelflife is 5years. is he correct , I do not know. I would e-mail 303 directly and get you answer. second option would be buy the gallon and split it with somebody. Autogeek seems like the best deal at $45.99 . I think we may also get an Autopian discount there but I am not sure hmmm ? either way that is a good deal. let me know if you are going to buy it and want to part some out.

autogeek has a detailcity discount, not an autopia one. I bought from them yesterday and found that out the hard way :(





Looks like they will be on my avoid list. come on man they need to give us 10% for all the reviews they get here. well here is my review on that policy ..... :bolt

What are you guys talking about? Autogeek gives a 10% Autopia discount, I just ordered from them last week.





Thanks for the confirmation, I used the discount but that was like 6 months ago. that is why I was sending the original poster to there for the 303.

when i've bought from wolfgangcare & pinnacle (got ups confirmation on my order from autogeek, so i'm assuming they are all linked), i mentioned over the phone when i placed my order, if there was an autopian discount and they gave me 10% off. :nixweiss

:spit: :rofl

What are you talking about? Why wouldn't you just enter "detailcity" then?





Anyway, I've gotten a 10% discount at Autogeek everytime I've ordered, by using code = autopia.

Personally, I would not recommend buying this product in such a large size, especially when you don't think you will use all of it within a year. You would be much smarter to buy it when you need it. You will find that 303 Protectant is usually available in smaller spray bottle sizes at most boat supply stores.

Brilliant idea! My wife gets upset when the UPS man drops off packages, and they're not for her. Shhh... 3 packages comming next week ;)



I just did a check, and West Marine carries it, in pint, quart, and gallon sizes. Probably cheaper than if I just bought it mailorder alone if you take into account shipping.



And I can sneak it into the garage without the Mrs. suspecting a thing.



Thanks!!!!!! :clap:
