Wax recommendations

Looking for a long-lasting wax that comes off easy with a towel for our motorhome. What's your favorite?

Glare aircraft polish. Tried so many other products and find this the best. No white residue, easy to wipe off, longest lasting

Rejex. Easiest that I have found to remove. I sometimes apply one day and remove 1-2 days later with no difficulty.

You'll get 20 different recommendations. Many of the aircraft waxes require being applied in the shade and can be difficult to remove.

NuFinish is available at Walmart, is easy to apply and will last as long or longer than most other waxes.

I have always used Maguires Gold Class on our coach and previous travel trailers with great results. I wax every 6 months so I can’t speak to how long it will last other than that, but it goes on very easy and comes off easy as well. No white residue and buffs to a great glossy shine.

Armorall spray on. The secret is out and it’s getting difficult to find on the store shelf.

If your paint/gel coat is in good condition then I’d use one of the new spray on, wipe off products that has a UV protectant in it. I use Lucas Slick Mist. Some allow you to use the product on a wet surface. I can usually do my 31ft Newmar in an hour or two. If you want to wax on / wax off, then NuFinish is a good choice.

I believe long "long lasting" and "comes off easy" are mutually exclusive. I prefer to wax more often and use a very east to apply/remove product. There are many to choose from I like Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Wax https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G175...imate+quik+wax

I use Turtle Ice. It can go over rubber and leaves no white residue. After wash use Adam's detail spray.

Above gets used both on my Toad and Class A motorhome.

I tried Nu Finish based on recommendations here. It leaves a white residue and can be difficult to remove from crevices, seams and stone chips, especially after it dries. Of course, that also indicates that it is a very durable finish. Just make sure to get it all off.

I find the spray on, wipe off products to be easier and I like the results better. I'm lazy
