wash wax all

My buddy, Phil Ward, turned me on to Wash/Wax All while we were in Puerto Penasco. I was impressed at how clean  his rig was. I just tried to search past posts here to see what others had to say about this product(s), before I take a $230 plunge. I couldn't find anything.
QUESTION: If you have this system, are you as happy with it as others ( Amazon reviews ) seem to be ??
Got a BIG birthday coming up, and can drop a few "hints".....
Thanks!!

These threads are like the battery & tire threads: everyone has a opinion! Me? Old school, I'm careful to not reach for the wrong container when I need a break. BTW, I've never heard anyone bad mouth Wash/Wax All!  ^.^d

FYI, When we painted 6 years ago Cindy asked James Stallings how to maintain our now painted coach.  James said the clear coat just needs to be washed, no wax needed.  Cindy followed that recommendation and the paint job looks shiny, like we just drove out of Xtreme.  No wax has been applied.  Interesting how a good clear coat holds up.  For roof spots and problem clean up, Cindy uses Klasse one-step polish / sealant.

Sounds like you got a good paint job Barry,the trouble is not all clear coat is created equal,my 01 excursion's clear coat faded
and fell off the top and hood.Next time you see him ask which brand and type he used.

Good point, I know that the older decals were specified 303 ONLY, no wax. The newer 3M decals will take wax.  ^.^d

Been using Wash Wax now for over 10 years and love it.  I have a friend that owns a Newell and he used nothing but Wash Wax for 2 years and was impressed with it.  It was developed to be used on airplanes, but works great on motor homes.  It is really not a wax as one thinks of a wax.  It's really more of a wash than a wax.

Glenn,
I get pages of good info on Forum searches for "Wash 'n Wax All, WWA, Wash and Wax, Wash Wax All", etc..
Rather than reinvent the topic, there are many good threads and good reading pertinent to your question.  Just a very few examples:

7 years ago What you can learn in meeting other Foretravel owners
7 years ago White door gasket
7 years ago Cleaner
5 years ago Wash and wax all
5 years ago Tire covers for UV Protection
3 years ago Snap on wheel covers
2 years ago what kind of wax do you use
3 months ago washing and waxing coach.

HTH,
Neal

Had a guy that was washing a trailer at the lake and he was using Aero wash & wax.    After that I bought the kit and use it on the Coach.  I first wash the coach and then use the Aero to wipe it down and  dry. The mop handle is the neatest.  It is very easy to extend and retract compared to anything else I have used.  The de-greaser that comes with the kit and the hand scrubber works great on black streaks

John,

Xtreme in Nac uses Glasurit paint, which may be a high-end choice.
Glasurit: Car refinish with system | Glasurit

We were on site every day during the month it took to paint, and observed many coats of First Clear, some of which get sanded down.  Then after all painting adjustments are complete, their number-one paint specialist puts on many coats of Second Clear, all without runs, etc.  This Second Clear is not touched, polished or molested in any way.

I think the reason we look so good even after 6 years is not only the quality of the clear coat material, but the mixing, preparation and mostly the high quality application that does not even get buffed.

We have James' old show coach.  I use Wash Wax All twice a year and it still looks like new.  Good stuff.
