    Question Maintenance of front cap & trim on XLS TT models

    We have an XLS 22 MLE & have been using Maguairs gel wash & pure wax for cleaning & waxing. The black trim and front cap seem to have a cloudy finish no matter how long it's buffed. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to restore the finish and what to use in the future?

    The front of an XLS is coated aluminum sheeting. You will never get a shine out of it since it is a textured finish.

    I don't think I would use anything but a mild car wash for it. Certainly not buff it. It is probably a wax build up that is causing the cloudiness.

    I just took my 303RLS to the Blue Beacon truck wash and then the whole trailer is now clean and ready for a good polish. I do it once a year for a polish and every time I get heavy bug tar on the nose cap.
