    Fiberglass sealant vs carnuba wax recommendations

    Those with fiberglass exteriors, what are you using to protect your TT? Are fiberglass specific sealers best, or do you use a sealer/wax that would be used on your car?

    Exterior crack in fiberglass

    While waxing the other day, I noticed this crack in the fiberglass near the roof - one photo up close and one for orientation/scale. It’s interesting, for maybe a foot radius (maybe less?) around the crack, the fiberglass/gelcoat has a noticeably different texture. Even when waxed, it’s a little...

    Fiberglass discoloring

    It was 48 degrees and I noticed a strangle discolored section of the white fiberglass exterior wall of my 2018 Rockwood. Look closely at the photo. There are no chemicals or cleaners on this area. Anyone seen this before? What is causing it? It does not appear anywhere else.

    Fiberglass Reconditioner

    Anyone try this? I'm not affiliated with the company bit saw it on "RV Daily Report". Kind of pricey but may be worth a try. I don't need now as my trailer is less than a year old. Looks like they carry a few other products I may want to try. https://iosso.com/products/fiberglass-reconditioner/
