Waxing the coach
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.

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.
