    Personally I am not a fan of glossy vinyl so I would rather not apply "protectants" to it unless they actually prolong its life.

    What is the consensus regarding these products, which I presume are all silicone in some form.

    My Dino sits in a dark garage in So Cal except for its monthly drive on a Sunday afternoon, so UV exposure is not an issue.


    Thank you,

    Jim

    Yes it does. It will eventually dry out and crack. The good protectors do not have silicone like Lexol.. There are a bunch of them without silicone unless you prefer Armour All which has silicone and turns things orange when exposed to the sun over time
