IF YOU WANT TO TREAT YOUR USED BELT AND
NOT HAVE TO REMOVE IT.
As rubber ages, it loses flexibility. Elevated temperatures exacerbate the reaction/high engine compartment temperatures. Rubber also degrades with exposure to ultraviolet radiation and ozone, a lightweight gas found in the atmosphere and caused by the partial breakdown of air from atmospheric electric discharges. Anti-aging chemicals/conditioners, activated by operating temperature, prevent premature cracking.
Here We Show You How To Condition Your Poly Groove Belt Or Alternator Belts So You Will Never Have To Replace Them Again.
This Method Is Easy To Do And Will Save You Many Dollars Over The Lifetime Of Your Car. Not Only Will You Not Have To Replace Your Belts You Will Not Ever Hear Them Squeak Or Chirp Again. SO LETS GIT ER DUN !

    I will FULLY VOUCH for this process! At least for Windshield Wipers. Previously, I was replacing my wipers once a year or more and being car proud, I was buying the expensive Bosch wipers. I followed this process on March 6th 2019 and I still have the same wipers! Like new, zero signs cracking or signs or wear & tear! Can't thank you enough; my savings must be at least a couple hundred dollars at this point.

    It's been a while since I originally watched this vid and followed what you said. Thanks man. This magic sauce is amazing! I used it on everything elses besides serpentine belts. I used it on wiper blade - extended service life from 3 to 18 months. My brand new Pitrellii tires quickly worned down from 11 to 8/32 in just 2000 miles, me I marinate my tires everytime I do an oil change and it's been over 50K I only went from 8/32 to 5/32 with very very very little dry rots. Man oh man, I used it on everything else too. New expensive shoes these days unless treated with 303 formula the outsole would wear out after 5 months. I'm a heal striker so the entire thickend most part would go flat in 5 months. Marinate it with 303 and after 3 years the outsole outlasted the shoes body. The body gave up before the outsole worn down! Holy crap I use it on everything around the house, I sprayed on soft pleather (PU) seat to slow down dry rot, pant belt, all of my car rubber parts(cv boots, strut boots, steering boots, engine mount, etc) , wheel barrel left out in the open sun. I live in the Mojave desert so we get pounded by sun UV - this product stood up to the test! What he said in this video is 100% accurate, I've time tested the product. It's amazing in 5 years this company has only risen their price on a whole gallon by $10 as of 2022. It's $60 now so that's not too bad considering how much you are saving. Just remember, the longer you marinate the product the longer it lasts. I usually go for 24hrs. Just be extra caution when using on shoes, it might strip away your vanish - just repaint it using polish Wally sells polish, cleaner, and valish all in one stick for $5

    I've used 'belt dressing' in the past with limited results. I've actually considered doing this very thing to all of my accessory belts but was always a little concerned that it might did more harm than good. Nice to know that it works as I would've expected, even better, actually. I'm less concerned with the cost to replace the belts since it isn't usually THAT expensive or often they require replacement. However, anything that improves longevity/reliability is important to me. Thanks for the tip!

    A very good tip. Most people wont understand, that treating rubber will always make (and keep) it softer, thereby giving it a much better grip, without tensioning it way too hard. Thats also why a squealing belt instantly gets silent when sprayed with silicone spray. Thanks for the video !

Have ordered the spray on for tires from your other video, gallon for belts and other stuff, dental tools for packing synthetic grease in the new bearings after disintegrating a tensioner pulley. We have 3 old Mercedes and through your links and videos I estimated I just saved over $1,500 in repairs (labor, parts store tensioners, belts, idlers, etc) on 3 vehicles as my son and wife's cars need new belts too. Replacing all belts soaked in 303 and packing new tensioner pulleys and idler pulleys for both along with tires, wiper blades, etc. Thank you so much for doing videos that get RIGHT TO THE POINT and giving actionable links in the descriptions with great pricing on the products you show.

    I bought some 303 and you were so right. 👍 Thank you! However, I would like to mention that we need to check the belt ribs with a rib check gage. The gage measures the depth and width of the ribs so that the belt does not get slippage. A modern belt can wear but not show cracking. A worn out belt can snap which can cause engine damage. Also, belt slippage can cause horsepower loss and impact alternator, water pump, a/c compressor inefficiencies. Belts are relatively inexpensive so treat them by all means but check them for wear. I believe that Gates and Continental have free gages. BELTS ROCK!

Reminds me of using glycerin on the rubber band on little balsa model planes when I was younger.

    DO NOT LISTEN TO THE COMPLAINERS, THIS IS A GREAT THING! A lot of people on here are just greedy parts replacers or they work for the belt companies. This is a great thing, even if it doubles the interval. Hats off to the guy who posted this, he is an honest mechanic. Why waste your time any money needlessly. I do now how to work on cars, but I would rather not HAVE to, and I would rather save the money. Also, if you rent like I do, you don't always have a good place to work on your car when something NEEDS to be repaired, or it is raining etc. I live in California, and mechanics in Sacramento are ridiculous in regards to what they charge for simple things. $156 plus tax for the labor to do sparks plugs, not including the plugs which I was quoted another $80 for. LOL, I got NGK platinum(oem Nissan part) for like $35 bucks and it took me 30 min. to do my plugs. That is a lot of money saved! Belts and labor plus tax would easily be $80 in Sacramento CA, PLUS I would have to arrange drop off/pick up for my car during the work week. Most mechs where I live aren't open Saturday. If this saves me the time and money (1) time in two years it is worth it. Leaving your car with a mechanic is a hassle, period, for anybody who doesn't have the knowledge, have a place to, or have the time to work on their own car. Or have a reputable mechanic he deals with. I don't mind spending the money to have someone fix my car, but in my part of the country it is very hard to find someone who is honest, reasonably priced, and actually knows what they are doing.

    Thanks for the tip! I've been using 303 Aerospace Protectant on my car's plastic and rubber trim, for years. It's brilliant stuff, with 30+ UV protection. I didn't consider using it for belts. I would have thought the belt would be more likely to slip, because 303 Aerospace Protectant leaves a very smooth & slippery sheen. I've never seen it available in anything larger than a small spray bottle, either.

    Thanks! Unfortunately, I'm in Australia. They seem to like to limit our portions to tiny sizes. I'm guessing it's partially due to less dense population (less market for larger containers) and likely because no-one's started selling larger containers of anything like 303, so us suckers continue to pay the high prices that go with small bottles. Have you ever tried the Auto Glym range? They have a glass polish that takes all that horrible film off the inside of windows and it works on the outside, after the normal cleaning. There's also a brilliant product for paintwork. I don't remember it's current name. It used to be called Auto Glaze. It goes on like a polish, but it actually has beads of glass in it, so it leaves paintwork even more shiny than the windows! (Need to be gentle applying it, though, as the glass beads can end up scratching the paintwork.)

    I agree. We have a 1994 F-150, 5.0 (serpentine belt) that we bought new. A while after we got it, it developed an irritating/embarrassing eeeep at idle. Particularly embarrassing for the owner of an automotive repair shop. I determined it was the belt by spraying water on it from a squirt bottle while idling. The noise went away for a short time as the belt dried. Different brand belts didn't solve the problem. Bar soap rubbed on the belt made no difference after a short time, not to mention the possibility of personal injury. At this point some may be thinking, 'Take advantage of the warranty.' But, NO ONE works on my vehicles but me. (The twenty three year old truck is presently having it's 300k mile preventive maintenance.) Any way, a couple squirts of Armor All® every few months does the trick. As shown in the video, the belts have never shown any cracking or excessive wear. I do change the belt once in a while because it's not possible to tell how the reinforcing cords in the back of the belt are taking the constant flexing under tension over a longer period of time. As for using it to extend the change intervals on timing belts, they tend to fail when those reinforcing cords give out and the belt breaks. Big ouch!

    Serpentine belts are made with a radial cord that I was taught cannot stretch. I have used them to pull engines they are so strong long ways. Usually when a belt slides off it is where the flat side of the belt contacts a smooth pulley. When the belt gets slippery off it comes. Its really common on Chrysler mini vans. You spit at the idler pulley the belt comes off. No doubt oil will mess up a belt also.

    40 year Professional mechanic. I've been using a product called Syl-Glyde by N.A.P.A. for over 30 years. Just put a dab on your finger and apply it under the belt close to any pulley, do the same on the back of the belt. It even works on belts that have begun to dry out but are not yet cracked, once they're cracked, it's over. Anyone can apply Sil-Glyde, even the Ladies with nice nails. Sil-Glyde costs $10.99 at any N.A.P.A. Store and an 8 oz. Tube will last years and years. I'm not saying that this video makers process won't work, I'm just explaining an easier way to protect your expensive belts. Thank you.

    You also don't have to pay for installation, plus drop the car off for several hours (with the help of a friend with THEIR CAR to give you a ride TWICE) plus be without the use of your car for most of the day PLUS you avoid the possible chance of a BREAKDOWN in EAST OVERSHOE if it fails.

    timing belt stretch and breakage tend to result in a simple engine replacement unless you have a non interference engine, if you have a non interference subaru ect it could be a fun experiment as long as you carry spare belt and tools and are single. if you are not single this will likely lead to becoming single.

  • @Torch70

    Timing belts typically fail due to an idler or water pump seizing, which is why they are all replaced at the same time. The belt also stretches over time due to the forces applied. When it breaks, at best you'll be left stranded. If the engine is interference, you'll be looking at destroyed valves and possibly a destroyed head(s) and pistons.

    As my belts are hidden from UV under the bonnet I'm not sure what the UV products listed are for. Also fan belts are £5 a go and serpentine belts are £12 and last until the timing belt needs doing anyway for my old Peugeot, in fact my old serpentine looked just fine without treatment after 10 years and 50,000 miles. What would be useful is a tyre sidewall treatment for vehicles that are not used that often - like campers etc.

    I started thinking about it... and realized that using 303 on the rubber of a speaker cone would keep them pliable and last much longer. The 303 would protect it from the ozone and heat and stop them from cracking and becoming brittle. Maybe something worth trying out??? I also use 303 on my tires after using a really good cleaner on them. It also protects them from UV and keeps them from getting dried out here in Cali

New pulley with bearing $25.00 I just press out the bearing and press in a new $2.00 one. Easy I know,but some people don't know.They consider it one replaceable item.
