Waxing the coach - Ernest Ekberg - 04-27-2008 14:01

My coach is parked on the Yellowstone river here in Montana. Today, the
temps rose above 65 and my paint looks dingy. I have used the Dri Wash
and Guard that Ron Marabito sold to me, but I'm out. What has worked
for you guys? I need to say that my paint is original and not in the
best shape. I believe it is Imron.
Thanks, Ernie- 83PT40 in Montana, getting spring, its about time, fever

Ernie,
I think you should turn around and look at the river, not your
paint.

Ernie, Try Clay. takes alot of time but nomatter what you put on paint that has dirt and junk in it, you end up only polishing the dirt in. be shure to clean off the old wax first with some laundry soap. If you dont use a surfactant like laundry soap to remove the old wax you spend product and elbow rubbing off the wax to get to the paint.

Ernie, are you looking for more Dri Wash ''n Guard? A friend who sells the stuff
just arrived in Gardiner - don't know if he plans to head up Livingston-way, but
I could ask. They are waiting to camp-host at Fishing Bridge.

Hi Ernie,

Try ordering a product called "Ultima Paint Guard Plus ". You wipe
it on and it dries clear, no buffing, no rubbing. Just did my PT40 in
March and it took about 4 hours to do the whole coach, goat rails and
all. (up the ladder, down the ladder, etc...) After two months, it's
still slicker than snot and beading the raindrops. When another bird
owner told me about it, I was skeptical (in a "snake-oil" sorta way)
Now, I'm a believer too. The stuff ain't cheap, but it works wonders
on the imron paint.

I use a Product that put out that called Mr.Clean Automotive Wash
System. My paint job is fairly new and it doesn'td require alot of
waxing but I have found out that with this product that if you both
parts system that your coach is alot easier to wash and dry without
having water spots. I do take my coach to a car wash and can get
around it for about five dollars in change and than I just spray the
whole coach down with this product and it cut out alot of the hand work
required to dry the coach. As far as waxing I use a polish that has a
paint in it and it will cover all the scratches or small marks.
