RV - Protect All

I stumbled upon this product and wondered if anybody has any experience with it. It is a liquid that is sprayed on and wiped off. Seems almost too easy.

How much would it take to do a 38 foot MH?

Thanks!

Jim,

I used to use it on the RV, don't know why I stopped, I think just trying other products. I used it for years on motorcycles, was first marketed for that purpose. It is probably the easiest product to use and lasts about 3 months. It is great on glass for both vehicles and your home. Once on the glass, then bugs etc. just rinse off with water, no rubbing.

1 16oz bottle did my 40 footer with some left.

Used it exclusively since 2006 on the MH, and on the boat prior to that.

MH still has showroom shine.

Since found the waterless wash, and now use both exclusively.....The MH has only been washed once in almost 4 years........with soap and water.

use the protectall on glass, everything......Have not found a better combination of products yet,,,,jmho.....

I've used it for a number of years and it works fine. I have a galon in the shop now waiting for nice weather.

Thanks guys for the replies.

Why don't you come on over and show me how you use it Ken...I'm sure I'll catch on by the time you do one side.

If he brought 4 friends, you could really get the feel for it after they did the other 3 sides and the roof. Or maybe 3 friends and you could get your DW to do the roof.

Jim, I already know how this stuff works. If you want to practice on something smaller, come on by and I'll supervise on my trailer...even throw in a case of Bud-lite.

I found that it is easier to apply by spraying it on a rag rather than directly on the coach and then rubbing it on a small area. I got a 5 inch electric buffer and that does a good job and makes the job easier. I got a small buffer because it is easier to use above my head.

Jim,
If you provide the Bud Light, Ken and I will come over and see that you do it correctly.

Ken can show you how to "wipe on, wipe off," and I'll be like Pat Morita, supervising.

Edited:
Heck, I'll even bring the MH so you can practice.

See Jim, you are getting plant of volunteers....but I don't drink Bud Lite unless it is free and I do ZERO work. Prefer a Stout or a Porter or George Dickel.

I appreciate all the help(?) and most of the advice. I got it washed, drug up a chair for me and one for Roxie and instructed Judy to get after it. I figure its better than her pole dancing at Denny's...
I mean after all, I do most all of the other maintenance so she should contribute something.

I'll deny to my death any and all of these statements of course. Later, I need to get back to my watching her work. Wax on, wax off honey!
