Changed the generator oil.

Of course one of the screws for the access port cover snapped.

Murphy's law my butt, I claim it.

Never heard of Rejex. Is this a type of wax?

You’re supposed to clean them?

SPACE AGE PROTECTION FOR YOUR CAR, TRUCK, BOAT, RV, AIRPLANE & MOTORCYCLE

RejeX® is a thin-film polymer coating designed to provide a high-release protective finish for vehicles of all kinds. This very thin film – less than a micron thick – prevents stains and adhesion of common contaminants such as exhaust, bugs, oil, tree sap, bird droppings, road grime, brake dust, etc.
NOTHING STICKS BUT THE SHINE!™

It also makes graffiti easy to remove and can be applied to windshields to repel rain. It’s easy to apply and produces a deep, lustrous shine that outlasts the most popular waxes by months. RejeX contains none of the free silicone oils found in some other products that are known to contaminate paint and cause problems when repainting.
REJEX APPLICATION

Ideally, RejeX should be applied to a cool, dry, clean surface. When over 85° F, be sure to apply RejeX out of direct sunlight. If the surface is too hot, the coating can cure before it has properly bonded to the surface, so it may not perform up to its potential. RejeX is wiped on, allowed to dry to a haze for approximately 20 minutes, wiped off, then allowed to cure for 8-12 hours (depending on the humidity; the higher the humidity, the faster the cure). Curing is required to allow the monomers (polymer building blocks) that make up RejeX to attach to the surface being treated and to cross-link into a crystal-clear, impervious film. It is important to allow RejeX to cure for 8-12 hours after the haze has been wiped off. If the coating is exposed to contaminants such as oil, fuel, soot, hard water, tree sap, cleaners, etc. before it has cured, the contaminants may interfere with or embed in the protective film.
REJEX PROTECTS AND BEAUTIFIES PAINTED METAL, GLASS, ACRYLIC, GEL COAT, FIBERGLASS, GLOSSY PLASTIC & POLISHED METAL SURFACES

RejeX is not meant to be used on porous surfaces, highly oxidized painted surfaces, or to fill fine scratches. RejeX can be applied in multiple coats, allowing 8 hours curing time between coats for deeper color and greater depth of gloss. RejeX has a higher refractive index than waxes, so it produces richer, deeper looking colors and a lustrous long-lasting finish. RejeX can be used over existing wax; however, the duration of protection will be reduced as the softer underlying wax degrades comparatively quickly. There is no reason to wax over RejeX. As already stated, RejeX leaves a shinier, longer-lasting finish than wax… and waxes will have difficulty adhering to RejeX! If a RejeX-treated surface needs repainting, normal paint preparation is all that’s required. Abrasive cleaners, polishes, rubbing compounds and some chemical paint strippers can remove RejeX.

Ditto on Rejex, works AWESOME! Easy on and off and last, especially on the front cap where bugs like to stick, they now wipe off. Its not cheap but it does work!

It says it can be used on plastic and painted metal etc. I can't totally remember but I do believe I did everything except the rubber seals. You would have to try it, I just can't remember if it was too rough, but I think it was fine.

Hey Jet do you know if you can use an orbital buffer to take the Rejex off when it hazes over??

Got my 26BH winterized and ready for the 20 degree temps next week. Used air pressure to blow out the lines, made sure the black, gray and fresh tanks were empty, and poured pink potion into the drain traps, plus a little in the gray and black tanks to keep the valves from freezing.

I bought a bunch of new mouse traps yesterday and will set a few of them, baited with peanut butter, in my trailer to catch any rodents that find their way into the trailer this winter. Now that it's getting cold and wet they'll be looking for a sheltered place to hang out.

Ugh! We have the opposite problem, same result. Exploding cans in the garage when temps hit 112* for a week straight.

Removed the black tank flush vacuum breaker/valve that is notorious for failing and flooding campers and replaced it with a 90 degree bend. I’ll use an inline back flow valve between the outside of the camper and the water hose connection in case there is ever a back up.

Also installed battery disconnects to the battery.

Yeah, I can see how that would have the same result.
