Waxing/cleaning the outside.

What's the best wax/cleaner for the exterior to bring the new look back if possible?
Thanks

    A local body/detail shop and about $1000!! Trust me, I know.
  • Normally whatever you use on your vehicles will do fine...unless it's really faded, then go the boater's route. I use Nu Finish.

    I'll bet its a 2000 Mountain High Coachworks Pinnacle.

    and no matter what the OP does, it will require work in the prep - getting rid of the oxidation. If not to bad, lots of scrubbing with Bar Keepers Friend or Bon Ami. It if is lots of oxidation, I think buffing will be required. Once you get rid of the oxidation, a good hard marine wax or the Zep acrylic floor finish would do the trick.
  • Another vote for Red Max Pro/ Zep Wet - inexpensive version of the high tech acrylic products used to restore boats.
  • McGuires makes a line of boat/rv cleaners and polishes that work very well. Also Collinite makes a line of products that are highly recommended by the boating world.
