Ok I will stick my 2 pennies in also, Flitz is my metal polish of choice. Hatteras yahts' factory is located here where I live and alot of the guys I know that work on them swear by it. They also make a polish for plastics and fiberglass that works very well. I have used the Zephyr also and was very pleased with it as well. Now if I could just find the time to use them, everyone is not retired you know Mr Larry!

What works:
Walmart carb. cleaner, Walmart break parts cleaner, less than $2.50 for a 14.5 Oz. can. Jeff Taylor Performance cylinder wall preparation, calling it a hone job just doesn't give the process full recognition. Pro Trans, Joel's on Joy, and Arnett Transmission. |

Here's another product that works great. This non abrasive polish works good on aluminum but also works on plastic like lexan windshields. Same company makes other plastic polish also and I have been able to get overspray off of plastic with it. |

Vic, I've been using Turtle Zipwax wash and wax for quite now. You have to scrub it with a long handled brush, but eventually it gives a bit of shine to the vehicle.
It's not Blue Corral, but hand waxing an RV or an enclosed trailer just ain't my thing.

What works is a Allen Sherman built racing engine, a clutch built by the Hyatt's, and Mark Lelchook headers....

Want to get the streaks off of your trailer, RV, or motorhome without the alot of elbow grease. "LA's Awesome" cleaner. I get it at Dollar Store. Others have it also. Only $1.00 a bottle. Spray on wipe off.

Dollar Tree's version of CLR will clean rust and crud off of bolts and hardware. Let them soak for a day or two.
They don't have it all the time, so if you see some , grab about a half a dozen bottles. If not , Zep's version is cheaper than CLR..Get it at the sticks and bricks store.

Looks like everyone has a favorite , been in the Harley world now for 27 years so I have tried a lot of great polishes . But the best I have found at is available at Walmart , its called Cape Cod Polishing clothes . American made and this will leave a protective coating resisting future tarnish . here's a link https://www.walmart.com/ip/Cape-Cod-...-Each/23500565
