Getting it Done - Exterior Work Finished!

I spent the first three days here at Camp San Luis Obispo cleaning the exterior of the motor home. It took that long because I had to strip off all the wax and use Barkeeper's Friend to fully clean the front and back ends (fiberglass caps) before applying 5 coats of a product called PolyGlow. It was a lot of work but the end result looks great! The previously oxidized and dull fiberglass shells are now shiny clean and sealed behind a hard shield of PolyGlow, which also provides UV protection.




During these three days, I also cleaned and resealed the lounge window awning, and cleaned and waxed the Driver side of the motor home using Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax - this stuff works great!

All the work I've been doing to clean up and reseal the exterior is finally done, and should last at least 2-3 years... maybe longer. According to the manufacturer, the PolyGlow on the end caps just needs to be washed with mild soapy water and 1-2 coats applied each year to maintain the shine and integrity. We'll see.

What now? Nothin' but hanging out and sightseeing!
