Waxing the exterior
It’s time to wash & wax the exterior of my Grand Design Reflection. Can someone recommend the best products to use and the best way to apply them?

Quite a few of us use the Wash Wax All. They sell a kit with rags and a pole. But. If you have a ladder all you need are a few rags. Easy, fast, and does a pretty good job.

I washed my entire coach, roof, slides, and exterior. with Chemical Guys extreme wash and wax. Did the roof, made a fresh bucket, and did the rest with an extension pole and a large soft brush. Used an Amazon filter on the end of my rinse hose. Towel dried, except the roof, when through. Fantastic results. The whole coach glistens.

I use Meguairs RV Gel Wash and Meguiars "Flagship" RV and Marine wax. I've been happy with both products and they are available on Amazon.

There are a million choices out there, but I've preferred to use what works well on our boat which is Star Brite Premium Marine Polish with PTEF. I also do the recommended second coat within about 30 days. It lasts long and makes the surface very slick.

If you use a wax that needs rubbed off I highly recommend a battery powered buffer like this one: https://www.ryobitools.com/products/details/33287167029
