303 Protectant
I was curious if anyone tried 303 on fiberglass? I was cleaning the decals on my Greyhawk and noticed it removed oxidation and made it shine. I have tried a lot of products and nothing lasts. Doing the entire coach in 303 would be expensive.

Lots of people use 303. You can buy it by the gallon

I use 303 on my front cap, slide out seals and my skylight over the shower. My camper is 7 years old now and the decals on the front cap are somewhat faded but when the 303 is applied it gives a deep, rich tone and they look great. Problem is it needs to be applied every 2 weeks and it is relatively expensive so I wax in between 303 applications which I do maybe once a month. There are other products out there with good UV protection as well and not as expensive. Look for waxes that have maximum UV protection but for all rubber seals 303 can't be beat.

That was what I was curious about how long it lasts, as you seems I have to reapply to decals quite often and it does work good on rubber and seals

I alternate between the straight 303 in the spring to protect against the summer sun and the 303 spray wax in the fall. Both have UV protection. They both seem to last about 3 months for me.
My 20 year old boat has a dark red hull and is totally oxidized, 303 makes it look like new, lasts about 6 months.

Yes...., I applied 303 twice a year on my prior '05' Eagle Filon surface and decals looked great 12 years later one I traded it in for my Jay Flight. One coat of wax a year....., but gave the cap a couple coats a year.
As mentioned, I also use 303 on plastic, rubber, leather, etc..

I slather it and saturate the entire exterior (save the roof) with 303. The decals love it! Our unit drinks it by the gallon.

I just bought a spray bottle for my rv roof after it’s washed. I also use it on gaskets, dash, floor mats and on my roll up tonneau cover.
O’Reilly auto parts had a sale on it.

I'm in SW FL near the Everglades and have a, soon to be sold, 2020 Grand Design bumper pull in a park there. I use 303 on rubber etc. For the coach I simply wash it with a wash and wax product every few months. It and the decals look like new. I've used several different products that have UV protection with good results.
I bought this brush and am pleased with it. YMMV.
