Compound and Wax

Almost done, nose cap is all that is left and since it is painted I will wash and wax.

I am guessing I have 25 to 30 hours in this thing. The gel coat was oxidized from the top down and was leaving streaks in the dark brown. It is an early 2017, bought in 2016 and we like it and the layout.

Ahhh, Danielson, wax on, wax off..... bet your arms and hands are tired......
Machine did the hard part, I just had to clean it up. Waxing was quick and easy, compounding took the longest. Just a lot of real estate to do. The wind was my challenge, seems like every weekend has been windy. Also need to do the shaded side, when the sun beats down the compound is a bear to get off, just dries too quickly.

Next camper needs to have full body paint.
