I use one of those small turtle wax buffers(about 5 or 6 inches) to put the wax on and wipe it off by hand when Im at home .Its faster and the darn thing only cost about 20 bucks at walmart plus the small size works out good with the stainless and gets in places that the bigger ones wont fit. Im thinking of adding it to the on the road equipment, it weighs so little.

Red,
Thanks… I will check those out. I was looking at a radom orbit buffer last night. I have an H and like I said have always waxed by hand… I use a quality maguires wax but something get streaks just wondering if an electric buffer would help eliminate that and make the job a bit quicker…
Thanks

Sure .now you tell me Peter ! LOL OK next time im out your way Im bringing the baby buffer. Actually is a dual action one ,not suitable for compounding but for just applying wax its a real winner due to its small size and low weight. the price is attractive too.

Griots stuff is waaayyyy too expensive for me ! besides which ,if Im not mistaken Griots buffer is a rebranded porter cable buffer. They DO have some cool stuff ,

You don’t need a buffer! If your coach (or other vehicle) has a bad case of stains use a very light compond by hand ‘Scratch Out’ works well on SS and clearcoat to remove the stains very easily. Then finish the job with a waterless car wash “The Solution” by Super Seal.
For 15 years I have been cleaning my vehicles with “The Solution” by Super Seal. It was shown to me in Indio back then, and I was astonished by the results. In fact, I never wash my cars or coach unless its very convenient. It won’t remove stubborn stains, but once you get rid of them it’s easy to maintain the vehicle before it gets a chance to stain.
So far, I have cleaned the entire H3 to a wax-like finish with just a few towels and about a quart of “the Solution”. The end result looks and feels like a fresh waxing, and it doesn’t matter how dirty the vehicle is – there won’t be any scratch or swirl marks.
Its the simple answer to keeping your coach clean and shinny while traveling. Its quick and easy and you might not mind doing it every time the coach is a bit dirty. I clean my vehicles every time I’m going to be a RV park for a couple of days.
When you’re done (about an hour) everyone will ask if you just waxed it ’cause that’s how it will look.
(I used an Orbital buffer for years until I found “The Solution”. Then I never used it again.)
