I use 303 Aerospace Ptotectant. It's great for rubber, vinyl, fiberglass, tires, plastic, and leather. It's 100% prevention of UV caused slow-fade with regular use. Developed for aerospace and aviation applications. It is the world's most protective UV screening product. It's available at Camping World. Spray it on and then wipe dry. Gives you a like new surface. Removes stains and makes the item last longer. Highly recommend it on rubber. With the tires, you won't need the skits any longer.

It's a bit expensive, but it's well worth it. I also use it on my car and other items at home that I use outdoors a lot. It's much better on the dash than ArmorAll which ruins plastic. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I agree. 303 Aerospace Protectant is best I found..

The cover for my refrigerator on the side of my '99 Tropi-Cal had yellowed and looked very weathered. It contrasted with the white fiberglass which has stayed in good shape.
This weekend I used the 3M Marine Restorer and Wax. Lo and behold, it brought the vent cover back to the original color! It did not damage my decals either!

An update on the oxidation removal.... it has been hovering around 100 degrees or hotter in Denver and I simply CANNOT sand this entire rig by myself!! I just do not want to pay someone $600 to do it for me - so I'm ordering the PolyPrep and PolyGlo stuff and going to give that a try. I'm praying that the weather cools off so I can get some work done.

I like some of the others above, use the Gel-Glow from Camping World also. You wet the applicator (I use a bar towel) and then rub on the wax using a little hard rubbing. After it glazes over, I wipe off with a clean towel and then use an auto polisher to do the final polishing. Only the first time is the hardesst -- after that, it cleans up much easier. I also have the wash concentrate that "renews" the canaba wax that is in the Gel-glow. Where it really showed up as removing the oxidation was on the roof -- it actually does shine now after the application. It took about three days for me to do the entire MH but, was well worth it.
