LD factory wax October 10, 2010, 05:43:23 pm Yahoo Message Number: 117416Since this is my 3rd message today, I guess I don't have enough to do this afternoon! In any case, it is a Sunday and I can't call the factory. I have gone through the threads but can't quickly put my finger on this answer so thanks in advance for your patience. What is the wax the factory sells? I want to try to save myself the drive up there from Long Beach and perhaps purchase on line.Thanks so much,Julie and Sue '04 RB Bella Bear

Wax Reply #3 – October 22, 2010, 11:42:44 am Yahoo Message Number: 117677What wax do you folks recommend for waxing the LD? I had purchased a polymer wax from the factory when we picked up the rig in '07. This time I would like to buy the wax locally, if possible, to avoid the shipping charges for chemicals. The only product I have found that is not a carnuba wax is Liquid Glass, but it doesn't specify exactly what it is. Has anyone used this product? Or would I be better off with one that contains carnuba and polymers? Thanks, Beverly Brownian Motion '07 TK

Re: Wax Reply #6 – October 23, 2010, 09:53:31 am Yahoo Message Number: 117692We purchased our 2001 RK last October and left almost immediately for a trip. We didn't return until this summer. So this will be the first real outside cleaning that I have done.A couple of questions. Other than a good washing is there any additional prep I should do, especially since this will be the first time I I'll be using FF.How many applications can I expect from the 16 oz can of FF.TIA Ed

I can get two applications from one can of FF. I have found Finish Prep to be effective on contaminants such as bug stains and oxidation on the faux cabover windows.Malcolm Blue02MB
Re: Wax Reply #8 – October 24, 2010, 08:47:55 am Yahoo Message Number: 117720Ed, Yes indeed, start with a good washing. I then follow that by going after all the tar spots, bug spots, black streaks etc with the Finish Prep. It does a great job of removing all those types of things.I'm on only my second can of FF polish
