Hand waxing Oxidized RVs?
Jun 21, 2025
In the RV cleaning business your gonna run into alot of faded or sunbaked RVs, if your planning on waxing the RV please keep this in mind. Paste wax is not gonna make it look better, infact it will look even worse, ask me how I know.
I reccomend using some sort of one step spray on product on these, no wax or buffing is going to bring back the "shine" once oxidation has taken over, the only real ways to take the oxidation off is with wetsanding or compounding the surface, cleaner wax won't work either.
A product I have used to great success is "hot sauce" by boat bling, it doesn't leave any streaks and you can use it in the direct sunlight, it's easy to apply it just sprays and wipes on the surface and levels out. It also lasts longer than regular wax since it's a sealant.
So yeah, whatever you do stay away from paste wax, please.
Also of course your gonna wana wash these rvs before waxing them, always wash down the rv first, the waxing process will take out any waterspots or streaks left behind.
