Just wondering what is the best polish and wax to use on RV's? and can it be applied in the hot sun? I have a local dealership that would like to use my services to detail about 5 a month both in and out. However they do not have a location for me to work out of the weather. I am mobile and use ONR as my wash and I feel that will work great as I can do one section at a time. Any help would be awesome.

It would depend on the condition of the RV and whether they are painted or gel coat. A lot of larger RVs are Gel Coat and i'd find an all in one polish/protectant such as Duragloss Marine RV Polish #501 cleans, polishes, and shines gelcoat fiberglass boat and RV finishes. Duragloss durable boat and RV polishes. (http://www.autogeek.net/duragloss-marine-rv-polish--501.html) which should work well on painted surfaces too.

If these units are really beat and badly oxidized you'll probably need to start with a compound such as Meguiars Marine/RV #91 Power Cut Compound, marine compound, boat polish, gelcoat compound (http://www.autogeek.net/meguiars-power-cut-compound.html) and rotary polisher with wool pads.

If they are the new full paint RV's, you can use any autombile wax that you want on them.
