Anyone on here used Wipe New? If so, what were your results?

From what I've seen, it's nothing more than a liquid version of engine shine....I've used engine shine on rubber parts with a great deal of success. It's also much, much cheaper. Just spray it on a sponge and apply. Just keep it away from body colored surfaces just like Wipe New.

Very little shine after letting it air out for a couple days after applying. If you want lots of shine for tires or something like that, try 3D Ultra Protectant. Works on pretty much all surfaces.

Used wipe new on my old volvo mirrors, mouldings, bumpers. Application was easy, it goes a long way. Applied in September, still looks like new.

Have also tried 303 Aerospace Protectant and it doesn't even come close to restoring the look to new.

Can you buy this from an auto parts store like Napa, Auto zone or Advance?

I saw it at Walmart a few weeks ago. I think it was around $10.

Cope, 303 is probably the best interior treatment for vinyl & plastics going. Gives UV protection and wipes down to a non-glossy sheen. Been my choice for years now.
