There are plenty of RV waxes and polishes on the market but how do you know what are the best RV waxes? We’ve taken the guesswork out of it with our round-up of the best RV waxes by RVbyLIFE®. Made in the U.S.A. at our manufacturing facility in North Charleston, South Carolina, RVbyLIFE’s portfolio of high-quality RV care, RV repair, RV maintenance, RV cleaning, RV detailing, and RV restoration products are second to none.
Here is our list of the best RV waxes to have on hand.
When selecting an RV-grade wax or polish, it is important to consider that you will be polishing over the fiberglass gel coat, so it is imperative that you select a high-quality product that is suitable for the job. RVbyLIFE offers several RV-grade waxes and polishes to choose from. Plus, many of our RV waxes have built in UV inhibitors that will extend the shelf life of your wax and underlying gel coat, preserving the fiberglass below.
As a first step, be sure to always wax or polish over a clean surface. Check out our list of the best RV fiberglass cleaners before you begin. For gentle stain and dirt removal, we recommend our Suds fiberglass RV cleaner and for tougher, more caked on stains, we recommend our Fiberglass Powder Cleaner & Stain Remover.
The Best RV Waxes
- PolyShine® Premium Fiberglass & Composite Polish is a premium polish that shines and protects the gel coat of any fiberglass RV. Strong enough to work on chrome and stainless steel, PolyShine is a great option for an easy-to-apply polish.
- LifeWax® is our signature long-lasting carnauba wax paste with built in UV protection. Use it along with PolyShine for a wax that will last up to three years.
- Graphix Wax is specifically designed to wax over vinyl graphics or decals because it is solvent-free, so it won’t damage the vinyl. It is also tough enough to remove dirt, grime, and pesky stains while leaving behind a protectant from harmful UV rays.
- Fiberglass Rubbing Compound removes oxidation and stains, smooths surfaces, and prepares the gel coat for further waxing.
RV waxes and polishes can be confusing but they don’t have to be. Start with a clean fiberglass gel coat before waxing the surface and be sure to couple your wax with PolyShine Premium Fiberglass & Composite Polish to prolong the shine up to three years.
