What Do You Use For Upholstry Clean-Up Between 303 Protectant Applications?

[Tooncrazy]

Thread title pretty much covers the question.

I plan to apply 303 Protectant to my upholstery once a month during the boating season here. I would like your input on how to best clean the upholstery just before a 303 application or is that really necessary if the upholstery appears to be clean to the touch and visually?

Thanks.

tooncrazy, I just wipe it down using just a little 303, if it is the morning doo then I just wipe that up and if I get any hard spots I give it just a little spot of 303

I use 303 cleaner also. I had some leaf stains on my last boat and one of the local boat dealers sold me the 303 cleaner and it worked wonders.  I use it after each time we use the boat.

If it's just a little dust or other easy stuff I dampen a rag and wipe with water, or use the dew.   I like the 303 cleaner and use it a lot, but feel if it's not needed then it's not needed.  Using the protectorant occasionally really helps with making the cleanup easier.

Magic erasers work great. Many of the boat detailers use them.

Go easy with them. Magic erasers have been discussed in a thread here before. They are actually micro abrasives and can scuff the surface, possibly causing more long term problems.

I just use a little more 303 protectant and wipe down the seats... I haven't had any major stains to break out the cleaner yet.
