My 2003 BigFoot truck camper is all fiberglass.

The exterior has really started to denigrate… (when it rains the windows get white steaks from the chalk like fiberglass powder runoff)

I see so many wax type products advertised. Would like to know if anyone can offer a recommendation as to how to get it cleaned properly and what wax or other product can I apply to improve the appearance etc…

Thanks a million!

If you really like it. Have it painted. Use a good sealer on the fiberglass and then whatever color for the paint. Wax will only last for a short time then it will go back to being chalky.

Rotary polisher and heavy cut compound followed by the same with polish. Although it’ll probably look so much better after compounding you may stop there.
Then I e heard that Zep floor polish works good for preserving the shine. Couple different camps on that stuff and I haven’t tried it myself yet.
