Wax thread?

I'm sure there is a thread here somewhere but I can't find it. What is the best product to use on a fiberglass class A for protection?

Did you just type 'waxing' into the site's search window? I came up with so many threads about waxing, I almost had a fit.

I just did ours with Turtle Wax Ice. It seemed popular in a search here.

This is what I use. It was recommended by several manufacturers, and I see many RV specialists using and/or recommending it. I've had excellent results on my Super C, Class A, and now travel trailer. I have a friend that's been using it for many years on his TT, and his decals still look new.

I can't search from my phone. The dialog box just closes. I'll have to try from a computer

Yeah, my decals are long gone. The P.O. didn't take great care of the outside. Thanks for the info.

Get a neglected unit back is not easy, nothing I found would get my prior class A back for more then a couple of months for way too much work.

No idea the cost but I would look into vinyl wrapping it if I still had it, probably do the work myself as flat areas are very easy and stay with standard colors. Now a full custom printed wrap would be a different story

Had a fellow out of Florida that came to my rally. Found out he was a dealer promoting the product called SK Easy shine. Everyone got small sample bottle which will do a complete truck or car. Two types of product one is a Cerarmic and the other like a nano. It can be used on RVs,cars truck motor cycles and home. Had the small bottle of ceramic and just did my car and it looks great.Easy on and easy off. Wash your vehicle or camper then dry and just spray on and wipe off with a Micro Fiber towel or Terry towel. Goes over decals with o problem. i the car in 45 min and can even use in sun. You can use it on anything on your camper including windows and is UV resistant. Also can be used on plastic and vinyls. We shall see how long it last depending on where you live it can last up to a year. . For those going to Goshen this year he will have a both there as he has for the past several years.

Oooooh, this would be cool! Personalize it and make it your own! Haven't seen this except on rental RV's. Bet it's crazy expensive since nobody seems to be doing it.

I would think it would be expensive, however with the cost of full body paint it may seem very reasonable.

I would not have went full custom as I am cheap but I suspect the actual plain vinyl cost wouldn't be to bad. And finding a spot to spray a 34' box is not easy.

Make it silver and put an AIRSTREAM logo on it!
