Cleaning & Polishing fiberglass cap over cab

I am in the same boat (so to speak) with my class C, someone taped the trim up, I had it fixed but there is tape residue. What is best to remove it and not destroy the paint?

For tape residue I use lacquer thinner. For Polish McGuires boat/RV products in the blue bottles does wonders. Collinite is another fantastic product that will give a great shine

Use forum search feature - Red Max Pro. When I work on the cab over area I use combo of ladder, laying on roof, and opening engine hood and stand on flat space near radiator. Depends on how tall you/rig are.

Try WD40 first. If you need something stronger, use

Don't let it linger on any decals though.

OK, back to the original questions, I hope...

First I have to clean the grime off. At least I think so.

Those threads will tell you how to clean - many use Bar keepers friend.

You can do it by hand, get a nice rubbing compound then hand apply a couple of nice coats of wax...

have always used turtle wax car wash for car and RV. They shine pretty well after washing, but not sure if the product would work as a rehab.

I have been lazy 'bout washing over last couple years, so mine may be dull now also, I'm not sure

being legally blind does come with some advantages.

As far as reaching area, I have one of those multiposition ladders that makes into a 4' high, 8' long scaffold. 4' high just barely clears hood so I use some lego levelers from camper and 4X4' to raise it another several inches. I use same ladder scaffold setup to work my way down sides and around back. I forget name (it isn't Big Giant or whatever) but got it as Ace Hardware to do our paint hallway over stairs.

Hmmm, I have one of those ladders. Sounds perfectly safe!
