    Hmmm; since the GaterBack Coating comes in three(3) different colors of various shades of gray and claims to be permanent-- it sounds more like re-labled regular gray-colored spray paint in a can.

    Not for me. I'm sticking with the GM endorsed & approved TS-1 treatment wipes.

    TS-1 is the next step for me if the 303 doesn't work out. Have you tried the TS-1 yet? If that doesn't work this seems like a good option.

    GM actually endorses the gatorback, they use it for the Chevy Avalanche and Caddy Escalade....
    The TS-1 wipes are a temp fix, like a longer lasting Armorall.
    i wish i could upload an actual physical sample of my cladding so u can see the finished product. It doesn't look like a top-coat, but rather it seems to have infused itself with the cladding. Hard to explain, sorry. It just looks like it came this way, and that i have done nothing to my cladding at all

    So that means GM thought TS-1 was a better solution than GB? Or as Luna implies, might this have been a sales/marketing move to get consumers away from "dead-end" products like GB (in other words, products without a follow-on sales model)?
