Hey. We have a 30' Arctic Fox fifth wheel. What size did you guys get. I don't think we need the gallon. It looks like we would have to order it online.

Like 2 other posters I did the Zep High Gloss Floor Polish. Started by washing with Bar Keepers Friend and then rinsed and neutralized the now dull finish with Trisodium Phosphate. Applied 5 coats of the floor polish (started to get a little antsy on the 3rd coat as it seemed to not be working) and have gotten a boatload of comments on the look. Even after 3 years of doing nothing but washing every few months it still looks as if it was just done. I have done several other coaches and 5r's with the same result.

I order Rejex online by the gallon since I also use it on all of my other vehicles.

When I get it I transfer it to smaller bottles for easier handling. It has a storage life of 2 years if you store it as directed.

X2 on Rejex. I've been using it for years and I love it. Easy to apply easy to buff off. You'll love this polymer.
You can find it at auto supply businesses, marinas, even airports. Or you can get it online. I even use it on windshield glass. Makes bugs easy to get off.

It takes two bottles of this to do my 40 footer. I do it twice a year. It is about $20 a bottle so $40 to wax the rv.

You will be stunned how well it spreads. It is very easy to wipe off. It dries to a very soft powder. The clear coat it puts on will surprise you.

I have been using this for almost ten years. All of my vehicles get this so I buy many bottles at a time.

We are going to try the Rejex product. Been doing lots of research. Has anyone who uses Rejex also used the Xtreme Clean they sell? It is the pre-cleaner to remove wax and stuff.

Our fiberglass shop guy told us we needed to clean off the old wax first by getting a can of grease and wax remover at the auto paint store. Then wash whole thing off with Dawn and dry good before applying Rejex. I read about the Xtreme Clean on Rejex website and it is not expensive $9.95 (probably same cost as anything at paint store). We just want to do this correctly. These things cost too much to mess up. Thanks to all for the advice in helping us figure this out.

We're about to pull the trigger on a Thor Windsport 29M.
To those of you that have used Rejex: Do you feel it is superior to or equal to the finish protector the dealer is going to try to sell me?
Thanks,
Dave

We had been using Collinite wax and were not pleased with it due to difficulty to polish off. After much ado and research here is what we are going to do this spring when we get back to our base camp:
On the advice of our good fiberglass body shop person we will wash our camper just quickly (ours is very dirty from sitting all winter where we are unable to wash it). He said to get a can of wax and grease remover from an auto supply store who sells auto paint (however, when we order Rejex we are going to order their Xtreme Clean (not expensive and will take the place of the w & g remover), he said to wipe down the camper (with Xtreme Clean). We are only wiping down the sides because our front end cap was redone and clear coated last year so needs nothing and the rear end cap has oxidation so he is going to buff it out for us and then he will apply the Rejex for us on it. You can’t apply Rejex on oxidation. He didn’t specifically recommend Rejex but said these type products are good. We just decided on the Rejex as it seems lots of you guys like that brand. I called the company and asked questions. Then we are to wash (in our case the sides) with Dawn, be sure camper is dry and then we will apply the Rejex. He said we should even apply it to windows (not sure if we will do that or not). We are also going to apply it to our clean skylights on top. In future will only use car wash soap to wash the camper. The Rejex is supposed to last longer than regular wax. In future we will only have to wash and then reapply the Rejex.

Has anyone else applied Rejex to the camper windows? Was that of any benefit?

I have responded many times to this subject. Dry wash OUT A the question, especially if your rv is painted. Big big scratchs..ouch. I bought a gallon of McGuire #50, cleaner/wax.on the part of my coach that is painted black I use mcquires gold carnuba wax. Have fun rvn...(in your shiny rv)

I used to wax our fifth wheel twice a year and it was a big PITA. A fellow RV'r told me about this product Shine-On. I applied this 2 years ago and have not waxed it since and the water still beads up on it when it rains and still looks shiny. One quart of clear coat put 3 coats on our 34' FW. It's not cheap at about $100 for the kit and it does require a deep cleaning prior to wiping the clear coat on. Besides RV's, it's also used on fiberglass boats. I don't miss the waxing.

Reliable Products has an assortment of cleaners, waxes, and polishes for RVs. I saw their products at the Tampa Supershow and all looked interesting.

Have not used the dealer stuff. Have been using Rejex for several years. Usually I Rejex the car and motor home once a year. Hope this helps.

Also Rejex has a wash to use when a washing is needed. Highly recommended. Call Rejex direct and ask them for recommendations. They are nice folks.

We have been using Rejex on all of our vehicles. We use it on the paint (non porous), chrome and windows including the windshield. In my opinion it works better and stays on longer than Rain-X.

We apply Rejex in the spring and fall since our coach is stored outside. We also apply a coat to the front of the coach before each trip. Most of the bugs will wash off just using the garden hose with an adjustable sprayer attached.
