Wax Question

Question

The wax I bought is Meguiars Flagship - Premium Cleaner / Wax

I am finally getting around to waxing my 5th wheel. I bought wax after reading on here about different types.
Now that I'm going to do it, I pull the bottle off the shelf, and read the label.
It says contains: Petroleum Distillates
I thought I was supposed to stay away from this type of soap and wax.
So, my question. Is this wax good? Should I use it? :?

I think the "Petroleum Distillates" warning is only for the roof membrane??

The Mequires Cleaner wax I use says the same thing. I have been using it on Travel Trailers, Cars, and trucks for more than 15 years. My TTs always have looked like new. As have my vehicles. The decals never fade, or crack. I wouldn't use it if it ever hurt anything. But it doesn't.

BTW. There aren't too many chemicals that do not have Petroleum Distillates, or are not Petroleum based.

It protects them, and keeps them looking like new as well. Do be  gentle on them if you use an electric, or air buffer. don't want to burn them, or the TT. Hand buffing is best.
