Caring for your tonneau cover is very important if you want it to last. The Florida heat, and damaging UV rays can destroy your tonneau cover in two to three years — thus making window tinting Vero Beach Florida that much more significant.

You first want to start out by cleaning your tonneau with a soft sponge, and dish soap/water to clean the dirt and debris from the pores of the vinyl. Then dry with your favorite drying towel or chamois. Now for the product. Solar Solutions recommends 303 Aerospace Protectant for all vinyl tonneau covers. 303 Aerospace Protectant was originally engineered for aerospace and aviation applications. It was specifically designed for protection against damaging UV rays.

303 Aerospace Protectant touts itself as “SPF 40 Sunscreen For Your Stuff”. They claim regular use gives 100% prevention of UV caused slow-fade with regular use.

Solar Solutions has been using 303 Protectant for over ten years with great results.

On to the application. You simply want to spray directly on coating half of the tonneau cover. Then take a damp sponge and spread the protectant over the half you sprayed. Once applied take a microfiber towel and wipe until completely dry. Then move to the other side and do the that half the same way.

The product should be applied every three to four weeks to keep your tonneau cover from deteriorating.
