I'll bet if you search the forum you'll find some posts about oxidation.

How old is that RV?

Do you have any info how it was maintained or not maintained?

There are lots of things that remove oxidation, but you don't share context. i.e. is it 15 years old, brand new etc.

Your picture suggest your focus is the decals, but what about the gelcoat. I don't treat both the same.

I suspect your gelcoat has a chance to be restored, the decals may take some luck because that is vinyl and it looks destroyed? But I don't know it may wipe off?

You would think with all the work you have been doing; you would have created several oxidation threads by now

But his solution may very well be different. Those decals really concern me. Some critical need to know information is missing before I can assume what may works in his case.


It is threads like this that keep me motivated to treat mine; so I never see those harsh conditions. I just did the RV Wash & Wax yesterday from my Colorado trip

We're sitting here by the fire... dark at 7:00pm

The side I treated is still slick as a whistle! Happy so far with the Meguiar's products!
