I've been told not to wax the exterior graphics when waxing the RV. Is there a product that will shine up the graphics?
thanks
 
The trailer I purchased was not kept up very well. It was used as a hunting cabin for several years. The outside clear coat finish was gone. I had learned years ago that a cheap way to bring back the shine was using Zep High Solids Floor Finish. I can’t find it anymore it was replaced by there high traffic product. I now use there “Wet Look” product. It requires a few more coats, but you get the same result. I use it over the graphics, window and door trim And also the floor. Works great.

I'll try that. Thanks. Your RV looks good.
 
An alternative view on the Zep Wet Look Floor Wax.....our family are long time RVers and three of us started using Zep a few years ago. Initially it does work and we reapplied it once a year. However, it does not have UV inhibitors in it and over time breaks down and turns into an ashy film. The breakdown is isolated to the wax itself as it does offer, even in its depleting condition, some protection for the RV finish underneath. It then must be removed with Zeps wax stripper, per recommended dilution levels. It is a huge amount of work to get this stripped off. Speaking from experience and IMO, I would highly recommend Poli Glow as an alternative. Welcome to Our poli glow products Store
