Favorite/go to chemicals, lubes, cleaners etc.?

We are brand new to RV'ing and are in the process of stocking it with all the essentials.

What would you consider your frequently used/favorite chemicals, lubes, cleaners etc?
WD40?
303?
some kind of dry lube?
Rainx or Rejex?
tile floor cleaner?

WD40 for various cleaning and for lubing the jacks.
303 for the tires and other rubber and plastic parts.
Bioshield T9 for lubing just about everything.
Wash Wax All for, well washing and waxing between full water washes.
Mothers Mag wheel polish.
Simple Green
Ospho rust treatment for hitting the surface rust spots.

I use WD40 for cleaning, but not lubrication. Isn't designed for that. I use a dry graphite or silicone spray for lubrication.

Simple Green can be diluted for several different cleaning tasks. Therefore, only one cleaner needed.

Probably get some boos for this, but I find a bucket hot water and a half cup of Blue Coral works pretty well for road dust and grime and leaves a fairly decent shine with very little work.

Some sort of 303 Protectant blue bottle (the bottle is in the jeep) does great on UV blocking on tires and gaskets. Not cheap but worth the price.
