Wax is becoming like wet cell batteries;
A technology replaced by better things.

You can use this stuff on tires and glass.
About 100 times+- better/easier than wax.

I use a wash/wax concentrate, whatever is on sale at Wal Mart. I wash the coach after each trip. Been doing it since the 90s. All four coaches and the cars shine well.

We sold our Searay last year and bought the MC. Had a couple gallons of Westmarine boat soap with wax. So wash with that until we run out. Also have some 3M Marine Wax and will finish up will that as we spend a lot of time on the west coast beach locations. We also use www.griotsgarage.com products. I will still wax once a year or year and a half but then maintain with ceramic and Griots Poly Foam. It is applied with low force pressure washer.
