It looks pretty promising; now to see if it will hold up. Did you do anything special as far as cleaning? What did you use to put it on - a sponge or a lint-free cloth?

I'm liking the looks of this. may have to buy a case to get the deal and pass it on to other members.

I used one of those terry cloth covered wax applicators - Didn't leave any lint.  This goes on very smooth-just like as if you were using water!

  That'll be a chunk of change!!  But I know there were several other people wanting some of this - I don't think it would be to hard to sell the extra's.

Thanks!

I used Something Better and it doesn't run and lasted nearly a year with one application but couldn't find any again.

Anyone ever use www.treasurecoast-mall.com/  shopping online ? It looks like they have it on sale.

This sounds like it should be a group buy!

Anybody else have any info on thie stuff called Something Better? Its much much cheaper, but does it really work? I really like the way Moavs cladding came out!!! Very nice Moav!

Thank's Batman! 

I've never heard of Something Better...or that treasure coast mall thing - but it lasted a year?  Can't hardly beat that, especially for the price that web site is selling it.     Hopefully I won't be needing anything else for a while    It's been raining off and on all night, so I'll be curious to see what the stuff I used yesterday did.  Hopefully it's just wet, and didn't change color like the Future wax did at first.  I'm all out of elbow grease this morning

You haven't heard of Something Better because it hasn't been around since about 1994. It was a foam kinda like the foamy tire shine products and I really liked it too.

I had decided to try Future but didn't because of too many complaints about application and the difficulty in removing it. I ordered a can of Black Again trim restorer product last night based on some pretty favorable reviews on CAFCNA. I couldn't find it locally. My bed panels and the sail panel cladding are all that really need anything; the lower cladding still looks fine.

I have been tempted to try a product called Plastic Restorer but haven't; it applies like the Refinish Restorer. I've seen it primarily in motorcycle/ATV stores.

I had a 15oz can of Something Better laying around, half a can did all my cladding. It took nicotine stains off my aluminum vinyl frame windows good too. I never heard of that treasure coast mall thingy so thought I'd ask about them. It's a discontinued product, it's a foam and doesn't drip, rain never bothered it either.

Something Better was made by No Touch and they got bought out by Permatex
