about 303 protectant? If not, what would you recommend?

My drysuit is Kokatat and they say to use 303. They say to use 303 several 
times during the year to keep the gaskets supple.
Thanks for reminding me I need to work on the neck gasket of my suit now or 
when I go to use it I will turn a matching color.  I'm thinking this might 
help in the stretching process I will now go engage in.
