303 aerospace protector works like sun screen for tubes & leaves them with a nice none sticky sheen
Prety cheap too

Just cleaning and protecting Lunasea's tubes for the season.

I get great results with Ribstore ToobShine for cleaning and HypaTech for protection.

303

been using 303 marine protectant for over 10yrs on all plastics not just the tubes. Even fishing rods etc stay looking like new and get the benefit of uv protection as well as water beads off like its been wax polished. It only has that sticky finish for a short time before it drys with no sticky residue. I use it here in extreme harsh sunlight in Australia and everything I spray with it looks like new after a quick wash, then spray.
