I have got the urge to give my motorhome a good polish (not that it's bad ) I thought of using T-cut ?
What would you recommend for a top polish job ?

Thanks Chas

Hi Chas,

The problem with T Cut is it cuts a lot and will more than likely leave it patchy/foggy depending on how severe the finish is. You will also need to use a polish on top.

See my thread about polishing my RV

http://www.motorhomefacts.com/ftopict-26971-.html

I have given you details of a very good cutter and polisher that will do the job very well.

Regards

Chris

Use T-cut only if the finish has faded or oxydized. You will then have to re-wax it for protection. Gel coats can be sensitive to ordinary waxes, go to a boat chandler for a specialized product.

Chas if you have a GEL Coat finish it requires a different method for cleaning/protecting. I use products from the above range, and they are very effective.

Hi all, Whatever you use do NOT use Tcut on fibregalass due to the ammonia content. Will work initially & look good but 6 months later you will have all sorts of problems. Use either Farecla G3 or one recommended for fibre glass, Steve

I have used MER for years on all sorts of materials
always a good result also easy to use, direct sunlight no probs just wipe on allow to dry and buff lightly

POLSKA!

Seriously,

3M Fine Cutting Polish to start. Not as course/harsh as T cut but hard to find in the shops. Try Automotive Bodyshops. Much easier to use than T Cut too.

Followed by MER

Hope this helps?
