Awesome Gelcoat

My Voltage has been in the Arizona sun for over five years now and the exterior was looking a little dull. I've washed it regularly but haven't waxed it as much as I should. After some waxing with Maguire's Marine/RV Pure Wax the gelcoat is looking like new again with a mirror-like gloss. It appears that Voltage used a quality gelcoat.

I just knew the black front end on my camper would look like crap after a few years, after 5 it still looks great. I just bought some Meguiar's Premium Marine wax, it claims to have UV protection in it.

As much as we crush Dutchman, they did well on the exterior of my camper.

Nice to hear they do something right. How are your decals holding up. After two years of outdoor storage mine look pretty good except the lower reddish one on the back that faces west is a little oxidized. South facing ones actually look good.

Remarkably, the decals on the sides still look like new.

good to know something works in the AZ sun, but the 103 degree weather will keep me from trying it yet...
