I have used it on many surfaces inside the RV like the shower and sinks, but not the exterior. It is a good product but I believe that the surface has to be fairly clean before applying. I would not apply it on a dirty surface.
I prefer washing first and using a Mequiars product on the exterior. JMO.

According to what the item description says This product is for RV exteriors that have more dirt and oxidation as well as black streaks. It is a more powerful cleaner than the RV Wash and Wax product.

Has anyone used this product:


Gel Gloss RV Cleaner and Wax

It is from the same company that makes RV Wash and Wax. The only difference is that this product is not diluted in water. You use a damp cloth rub it on, let it dry and wipe it off. My RV really needs cleaned and it is stored in Myrtle Beach so I will have to clean it while in the campground. I thought that since this did not require a hose and bucket I could use it and not violate the campground policy of not "washing RV on site". I will check with campground to make sure before I do but thought that since it removes black streaks and oxidation which my RV has That this might be the way to go.

Any thoughts?

I find that the guys that do my rv do a great job and they do it while I am at work. When I get home,,bam,,freshly washed and wax... The hardest thing I had to do was lift a pen and write a check.. [emoticon]
They are hard to keep clean. At 43 feet,,, I will only wash the roof. that takes me a long time. At 46, I just don't like to do the entire thing. Hope all goes well for you Jim. Happy campin Sir.

Thanks Dana...my day's are numbered for "doing it myself"[emoticon]

Does Dana mean 46 years old (at 46)? If so my days are surely numbered at age 83. Though I must admit that I have never waxed except the front cap. But I do wash the roof and the sides before I wax the front cap. Just did this last week.

I have been paying a guy for 5 years to wash and wax my rv. He washes it before each trip for 90 bucks. He charges me 180 to wash and wax it. I have the wax done twice a year. The price also includes washing my truck. That way we look nice rolling into camp,,,unless it rains while in route..

Nobody will clean and wax my TH better than "I" will, but I may have to find out...I'll be 66 in July and haven't gotten back to normal from the stroke I had in August, I dragged a ladder around the 44' 7" TH and waxed the entire unit...Don't know how long I'll be able to do it, but ill keep doing it until I can't do it anymore...

Hard to keep them clean though:)

I will wash my beast all in 1 day... Once a year I will set up the scaffolding and wax over a 3-4 day period working against the direct sun..
Last year I found a product ( on here ) called - Wash Wax All This is GREAT for keeping the trailer looking good,! It also does give it a just waxed look , without breaking my back , and every other bone

I just started using Wash Wax All this year and it turned a two day job into a 2-3hr job. It's so much easier than the old way and looks great to boot. The only downside is that it's kinda pricey if you buy the extending pole, but you can do the job without a ladder so that's nice.
