I do have a cover on the backseat due to my 4 legged child being my side kick for most of the time I am out so a little hair removal advice is always welcome.
I have the weathertech seat cover in the back seat where he rides. I like it okay and it covers the rear seat. I don't like how it fits across the back of the seat near the headrests though. It hangs kind of loose. But his hair tends to blow around and ends up in the front as well.

Also since you are asking about products. After wash I have used Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic spray for the shine. It's affordable, very easy to apply and I have been very happy with the results. In your OP you asked for pictures so here are a few I took after my Ranger's first bath last year using the products I mentioned.

Haha!

But really his hair is short and he sheds like crazy. I have cloth seats so they get stuck in the material like barbs. Since the seats are black his hair shows up in HD. :D
A rubber dishwashing glove gets the hair out like you won't believe. Thank me later.

I use a lot of CG stuff. They work well, but i feel are overhyped. If you can get their stuff for sale over on Amazon, go for it, you'll like it. I use the Blacklight wash in my foam cannon for my wifes Dark burgundy CRV, and the V series for paint correction, topped off with butter smooth wax and jet seal. Works really well, and we get about 3 months of solid protection easily extended with some TW ICE quick detailer.

I have made the switch over to Poorboys World stuff now, and I absolutely love it. The same quality as CG but much better cost wise. I'll find some pics later on lunch break and attach so you have some visuals.

Thanks, I've tried that one before after looking for a solution online and it worked okay but from my experience the brush has worked better for my dog's hair.

Do you use the Graphene on top of the Aerospace?
I only use the Aerospace on the tonneau cover and the top of the bed rails. All the black rubber and other plastic on the exterior I used the Graphene on it especially those black strips on the roof where some others had peeling issues. So far so good! :like:

Graphene will be the material of the future. It was originally called buckyballs but people didn’t take it seriously. I use to do diamond for a living so I understand it’s properties better than most. Graphene is diamond hard as it is a form of carbon. As a lubricant it also is way above anything else out there.

Been using their stuff for years now. They have a nice “butter” wet wax I like. My favorite product of theirs is probably inner clean. It smells so good and cleans the “inner” of your vehicle quite well. Not sure if it offers any UV protection.

One good thing about the Graphene is its super easy to apply unlike most ceramics. Plus you can go over any other finish or top coat with any product, you're not stuck just using 303 over it. I've never had a shine like this when I used Optimum products which are really good too.

Yes stray hair everywhere is unavoidable, he just enjoys the ride so much I cant say no.

I think butter wet smells great too. So does my wife. My whole garage smells like it when I'm using it ha.

Same. One of my favorite things to do in my Ranger is to take my dog on rides with me. I even bought him some folding steps so it is easier for him to get in and out. I had a sedan before my truck. He liked riding in it as well, but he seems to really like riding in my Ranger where he sits up higher and can look out the window seeing more things. So the dog hair issue is not really that big of a deal and totally worth it. :)

Definitely use it on your glass and headlight lenses. Although only microns thick it will make a barrier that will pretty much eliminate sandblasting of your windshield.

I did all the glass, headlights and taillights with it. The windshield beads up so good you barely need your wipers on. ? I even coated the glass in my walk in shower. Makes it bead right up and no soap scum build up.

He loved the drop top T-bird, but demands a pick up truck ride everyday, he literally stops at it as we go out for walks in the neighborhood.
