Cary, What a timely post, Thanks a ton. Just got our homebuilt out of storage and stated the cleaning/polishing with the Walbernize when i came upon this thread. Our custom made cove did leave a stain on the hatch, and thanks to your new instructions the stain is comming out. I am using 2 buffers, one to apply the Walbernize, and one to remove it. So far, I am getting great results.

Another question. Has anybody ever waxed their tear after this process to further protect the finsih? Being a street rodder, I have more waxes and polishes in my shop than most women have shoes. Sorry, but it's a sickness with most car guys.

Thanks Again,,,,,,,,,,Dennis

We've had real good results with Gord's Polish. We plan on doing a polish every spring. Whenever that is! :lol:

A different company that sells an aluminum polish. We first tried their sample, liked it and then bought the kit. The amount in the kit was enough to polish our camper last spring and to do it again this spring.

Actually, he used to be 6'5"...but all the "elbow grease" needed to polish the camper has resulted in a much more "compact" employee. :lol:
