Considering the size of the job, a coating like DP or Opti-coat 2.0 would be my immediate choice.

When considering how big of a job a RV really is I feel like ease of use and durability are the two biggest deciding factors when choosing products. So considering that I would give CarPro Hydro2 a shot. It is a spray and rinse product so you don't have to do any buffing or wiping. Good luck with the RV.

BC/CC?
SS?
Gelcoat?
Rubberized Skin?
Corregated?

Condition of above?

Too generic of a question.

It's either bc/cc or gel coat. Not sure how to identify...sorry for my lack of knowledge. How could I identify?

Metal or fiberglass would be a good start.

Personal, customer, pop-up, Prevost?
Basically whatever you would use on paint (wax/sealant), you can use on these vehicles. What's your goal considering current surface condition?

Given the size of the vehicle, Hydro2 would be a no brainer. You would cut the time spent for a wax job by 95%.

It's in fair condition. A good wash it the biggest problem. Just looking to give it a little shine and protect it.

If I was considering hydro2 how much would I need to so this job? It's a 38' beast. And it's for a customer.

What is durability on this? I have looked at it. But for now on my RV I use Liquid Glass (had it on my shelf) and it lasts forever.

DG #501 is actually made for this, and boats as well.

Sent from my SPH-M930 using AG Online

501 mixed with 601, very good durability, and easy to work. Hydro2 is easy but lasts only 2 months

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)

One simple step, once a year and no more fuss. Takes a half a day with a helper and 2 polishers.
