Default Top protectant locally?

Hi folks,

So I'd like to pick up some top protectant before the weekend but I can't find 303 or Vinylex locally. Am I looking in the wrong spot? I checked Pep Boys, Advance,Autozone, Walmart. If not those products, what else would be suitable in the interim?

Thanks,
Will

Go to a marine store (West marine is my local) and pick up a couple bottles of 303 aerospace protectant. Keeps the top black and new. I had a new top for over a year before it was slashed and the insurance adjuster couldnt believe it when he came out to see it. Thought it was weeks old.

If you cant find 303 products, try using Autoglyms protectant, I've heard that this works just as good as the 303.

Make sure you price the small spray bottle versus the gallon size. I've found the gallon to be cheaper and the 303 can be used on much of the car's interior,dash, top, rubber pieces and tires.
