Winnebago roof protectant?
I am new to having a fiberglass roof on my motor home. What do you suggest to use to protect the fiberglass surface from UV & the other elements? Also how often do you apply? My Coachman had epdm rubber type roof, I just cleaned and sprayed the Protectant.

I put 303 Aerospace Protectant on mine twice a year.

Some folks wax the fiberglass roof and they look really good. I have used Mop 'n Glow and 303 protectant. Either seemed to work well in helping keep the roof clean.

Yes, I do the roof, sides, front, back, wheels, and interior surfaces to keep them looking like new. Be careful if you do the roof, as it can get slick after application of 303. I never stand up when "waxing" the roof. I start at the front and work backwards till I climb off at the back. It actually goes fairly quick after the initial application.

I guess I was mistaken about the 303 Protestant. I thought it was for rubber or plastics.

Red Max Pro. There are numerous threads here about it.

Do you use Rejex on your complete exterior of the rv? If so how much does it take? My motor home is 43'. Just wondering how much I need to order.
I am not a fan of the Red Max pro interior floor sealants on the exterior. I have read all the posts. That are available here for the past 1-2 years. I know alot of people have had great success with it, but I will not apply it to a new or good exterior.

We use Rejex on the complete exterior including the fiberglass roof (smooth surfaces, nonporous) of our 35' 6" motor home including the roof, glass and steel wheel covers. We buy it by the gallon since it is cheaper and transfer it to quart squeeze bottles. With a quart squeeze bottle we can do the complete coach and have some left over. We also apply a fresh coat to the front before we leave on a trip for the extra protection from bugs and I think it works better than RainX on the windshield. We store it in the house and it will last us at least 2 years applying it in the spring and fall each year.

My poor old 99 Adventurer needs a roof top cleaning (etc) and have been looking at Dicor Products altho I'm certainly not advocating them. I haven't pulled the trigger and purchaed them yet. Does any one have any eperience with those products. I would think Rejex or mop n glo costs less but just guessing.Thanks
