One step cleaning polish with ceramic on a 19" Forest River Rpod camper. There were a bunch of old decals that were removed and there was a lot of stubborn adhesive. Lots of tree mold, artillery fungus spores, black streaks, sap, bugs and more. I sprayed adhesive remover on the old glue and used a plastic razor blade to scrape it off. I washed with CG Citrus Wash & Gloss, rinsed, then foamed up the camper again and scrubbed it with synthetic clay towels using the suds as lube. I think that clay towels are great for gel coat scrubbing.

Artillery fungus spores- unfortunately the only thing that really works removing them is your fingernails. So that was a lot of work hand picking all the artillery fungus spores off. I did that after polishing but before wiping off the excess polish.

This was a 2 day job, total of 9 hours working.
