Dull fibreglass front

The front of my 2015Jayco White Hawk trailer is very dull and appears to attract heat and sun which dulls any polish shine I try to do. Is there any suggestions ... I am considering doing a vehicle wrap over the front as no matter what I do it looks like crap after a day or so

We spent several hundred dollars having a detail shop restore ours. Lasted about two years. Online research led me to this product; better results than the detail shop ever gave us at a fraction of the cost. There are some YouTube videos that show this being applied. Huge difference and we’re very pleased.

We park our camper next to the house facing south and the gelcoat is all gone. We had to option of painting or having vinyl put on. We chose vinyl and love the new look.

When did you have it ceramic coated? What condition was the gel coat prior to ceramic application? Has it made a difference? What changes did you notice? Thinking of doing the same to my fifth wheel, that is the reason for all the questions. Tia
