I wonder if you really did a good enough job for the prep work if the rv had been waxed. Now after saying this I also had flaking but 3 years later. I removed the RMP and applied poli glo. Same look as the RMP but a lot more money. Waxing 2 to 3 times each year was never easy as you understand getting older. Same here. I finally learned the best method for me to remove the RMP after removing it from the side that really flaked off during the winter.

Since RMP has the same look as Poli-Glo, and Poli-Glo costs considerably more, why did you remove RMP and put on Poly-Glo. Just curious...Don
The front and rear cap are still RMP because they still look good. I know I did more to prep our alpenlite than most would do and because of this thinking I figured maybe I should try another product. Poli glo was made for boats so the money was not the issue just wanting a good job. I read the post about too quick of an application but going the distance to the rear to front is a longer time than the instructions tell to apply the 2nd application. What I used was the stripper for Zep or RMP and it was not easy for the side walls. The painted metal on the lower area was much easier to remove. I still feel better than doing wax as the earlier years of our 2001 alpenlite. The finish was getting yellow and one more reason for a different product.
