This thread threw me for a loop.  As a kid in the 1950s, I remember hearing the term isinglass refer to sheets of the mineral mica as used in stoves for a viewport to be able to see if the fire was burning. 

 

On searching the web for isinglass, I found that it also refers to a gelatin made from the swim bladders of sturgeons that is used in making beer.  

 

I cannot fathom why one would apply 303 protectant to either, but to each his own.

ps. Why would I ever want essence of sturgeon swim bladder in my IPA?

Microbrewers are always looking for some way to make their product stand out, but that’s going too far.

This was a new one for me also.

Different type of 303?

Different type of 303?

This is a paste from the sailrite page:

“To protect the integrity of your windows, you need to apply protective products like 303® UV Aerospace Protectant or IMAR™ to keep your windows looking like new longer. With regular application, these products will extend the life of your vinyl windows.”

I like Wander the West. Today I learned about another 303 product without leaving the comfort of my home.

I just suspected that the 303 I have (a large jug of for my car) that is labeled for "cloth soft tops" is not the stuff I would use on my vinyl camper material.
