    Does anyone use Aerospace 303 Protectant on their tires? I have heard that, because of the UV protection, this is best for your tires. Conversely, most tire dressings contain petroleum-based ingredients that can be harmful to your sidewalls.

    Also, does Aerospace 303 leave a satin or glossy shine?

    Here is a review of this versatile product.

    It leaves a dark satin finish. I use it on the black decals, weatherstripping and interior and exterior plastics. I have not used it on the tires as I am partial to Adams VRT for tires. My assumption is it would be good there just not as durable.

    I have used 303 for many years. I use it on any stripping and tires. Make sure you use the Aerospace or Marine varieties.

    Does it spin off as you drive? And does it protect against burnout temperatures?

    Greetings,
    303 does not separate from the surface. Sorry, my days of doing burnouts are over!!

    The industry-official term for that is "slingining."
