Scotchgard Auto Fabric and Carpet Protector review

Scotchgard Auto Fabric and Carpet Protector

Overall Auto Express Rating

2.0 out of 5

Price: £23.81 Size: 4 x 292ml

After a strong showing from the Scotchgard Multi-Purpose, we expected a similar story with this product. Unfortunately, Scotchgard Auto disappointed. It performed poorly in all the tests – cola and coffee were both soaked up and the butter left a greasy mark. It’s also only available in packs of four in the UK. Scotchgard’s other product is a better choice.
