Nice thing about Foretravel coaches: Genuine wood! Not printed plastic imitation wood.
While in Zapata two winters ago another RVer came over and wanted the name of "that stuff" we used that kept our walnut interior looking so good.
I showed her the aerosol can and she contacted the factory and bought an entire case! Had it shipped to the RV park. Ended up selling about 2/3 of the case for a 50% markup. (we got two cans for regular price because I sold most of the cans for her)

My only question is, does it smell after application? One thing that almost wrecked our purchase was the horrible stench of some kind of treatment on the walnut.  >:(

We used Orangeglo on the walnut.  Smell dissipates within a couple of hours.  But, it does a nice job of hydrating the wood.

Yes, there is a smell for while, kind of a petroleum scent, I noticed it right away, it disappeared after 2 days, no smell now!

The Howard's Feed-N-Wax has lemon oil and bee's wax in a petroleum distillate base.  Neither Susan nor I think it has any significant smell when putting it on or later.  It is one of the reasons wel like it.

If you want to sell a coach, a fresh pot of chicken soup on the stove works well! :))
