As age 65 is right around the corner I really don't relish waxing and buffing the roof of the pod. I have used 303 aero space In the past on Jeep soft tops, Miata soft tops and Bimini tops on boats in the past. It is a great product and after doing some research it is recommended for fiber glass/gel coat/plastic etc. Has anyone used this product on the pods outer skin and if so what are your thoughts. I am in Southern Indiana and the sun is not as bad as near the equator but is still damaging to everything. I washed the top tonight and it is clean as a whistle. Weather permitting I am going to use the 303 on it tomorrow. Happy Poddin.  ------------- Dane and Donna Smith 2011 RP-172 2008 Chevrolet Trailblazer 4X4 lift kit prodigy wireless brake controller |

We used 303 several years ago when we bought a new Class A motor home with a fiberglass exterior. We used Protectall on the rubber roof and 303 on the fiberglass. In my opinion, the 303 worked well, but I found that a quality automobile or marine wax held up better. Now I use the same protectant (Xzilon) on both our pod and our automobiles. Once the surface is clean, it goes on easily and quickly and even in Florida lasts about 3 years. You will be getting many varying opinions about what to use on pods. By the way, I am 75. ------------- 2014 R-Pod 178 (OUR POD) 2009 Chevrolet Avalanche |

I use the wash/polish spray that I use on my Harley seems to work great! ------------- Leo & Melissa Bachand 2017 Ford F150 2021 Vista Cruiser 19 csk Previously owned 2015 Rpod 179 2010 Rpod 171 |
