    Roof maintenance

    I have a 2010 Solera with fiberglass roof. I read the threads about cleaning the roof. I used the Bleach and water mixture and the Dawn/water mixture. The roof came out looking so much better. Now what should I do? I think some people recommended wax and others mentioned Dicor. Thanks. Tom
