Comments about 303 High Tech Fabric Guard:
I have used this for several years now. It extended the life of my dry tops when I thought it was time to replace them. During an active season, I may have to apply twice to my older dry top, but that is still a lot cheaper than replacing it.

Comments about 303 High Tech Fabric Guard:
Applied 303 fabric guard to my new Marmot tent's rain fly. Sprayed down well then spread it around with a dry towel Let it dry for 8-12 hrs for best results. First rain after applying the rain beaded up and rolled right off. We'll see how the UV side works in a couple years.

Comments about 303 High Tech Fabric Guard:
303 Fabric guard did a nice job revitalizing my older raincoats and they are now much more waterproof than before. I was a bit disappointed that the waterproofing didn't last long under heavy use. It's easy to reapply and I probably put at lot of wear on my rain gear stuffing it into packs.

Q:
For a convertible soft top, I've heard that people brush it on in order to keep over spray to a minimum. Directions on the bottle says that brushing will reduce coverage. What would happen if I diluted the Fabric Guard with water? Say 50/50 dilution. Will it still perform as usual?Asked on 6/14/2013 by New User1 answer
A:
That wouldn't be recommended. You can still brush it on; it just won't go quite as far. Another solution would be to mask off the areas you want to protect.Answered on 6/14/2013 by Clyde from NRS

Hello
I use 303 on allmost everything that contains rubber. I use it before storing gear and regularly in season, more often on gear used in saltwater. I really recommend it as it prolonges the lifespan on fragile parts, especially on druweargaskets. I havent used it on sprayskirts, but i cant see any reason why it shouldnt work if it is rubber in it.
-Trond Viggo SundAnswered on 9/16/2012 by AnonymousVERIFIED BUYER
A:
I used it to re-waterproof my drysuit and it worked fine. On a rubber spray skirt, stretching would break any waterproof film created by the product, so it would be useless to fix a leaky spray skirt. It would probably work for a while on a fabric spray skirt. I have never had much luck revitalizing a rubber spray skirt that had deteriorated to the point where it became permeable.

I never used it on neoprene but why not use McNett Wetsuit & Drysuit Shampoo?
Maybe follow that with 303 Aerospace Protectant.
303 Fabric Guard is intended to be used on fabrics as a reconditioner/water
repellent agent, it is a solvent based substance and mildly flammable. The
solvent content may cause deterioration of neoprene.
Why not call 303 Products customer service and asked them?

I personally have used it on my skirts, it does repel okay BUT it only lasts about one use.Answered on 9/16/2012 by AnonymousVERIFIED BUYER

I don't see why not. I've never used it on a spray skirt, but it works great on my drytops and drysuit.Answered on 9/17/2012 by AnonymousA:
303 High Tech Fabric Guard is great for restoring durable waterproof repellency (DWR) on waterproof-breathable materials, and for stain proofing. If your sprayskirt is neoprene, 303 Protectant, Item # 1909 would be a better choice.Answered on 9/17/2012 by Clyde from NRSA:
