Chemical Guys Fabric Guard Protectant

Overall Auto Express rating

2.0

Price: £9.99 Size: 455ml

This fabric protectant can be used on convertible roofs, but it’s suitable for interior fabrics, too. According to the instructions, only a light coating is required and it doesn’t need to cure overnight. Sadly, it didn’t perform well. Coffee and cola soaked into the fabric and the butter left an unpleasant stain that we couldn’t get off. Not a good upholstery option.
