My friend, I am never one to post a negative comment. However, in this case your instructions regarding buffing are 100% incorrect and could result in someone damaging their fiberglass. I didn't watch the whole video but there was 2 completely wrong comments. First, you should never use a wax with a wool bonnet. It absolutely is not the same thing as a compound, which contains various levels of micro abrasives depending on the product. Using wax with the a high speed wool buffer will never result in a proper finish because the powdery residue from the dried wax will just mar the finish and possibly be driven deep into the porous fiberglass surface. And secondly, YOU NEVER EVER EVER keep the wool bonnet completely flat when buffing. It produces too much heat and will always result in a terrible finish with holograms and swirls at the very least. With wool, you always buff with only the leading edge touching the surface. Only a foam pad should be flat. But good luck to you. I admire your enthusiasm to help folks out but you really gotta make sure you're providing correct information with some things.

Looking good. Nice work. Just a tip for those viewing. Just do not let it over heat... keep moving slowly like he is... never Sit in one spot or hit edges dry...

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Hi there! What product(s) would you recommend for removing the yellowing that occurs on fiberglass? I removed and replaced some of the decals on our coach and found the gel coat underneath was bright white while the surround areas were yellow. p.s. I had a RV detail shop put “Fiberglass sealer” on the coach about 2 years ago and it now looks horrible. Patchy and dull where it’s starting to wear off. Don’t think that’s the cause of the yellowing as I contacted the manufacturer who said their product doesn’t discolor.

@rocksdonteat6210 5 лет назад

Now I will tell you how to remove oxidation. Tsp or trisodium phosphate. Or Comet. And a broom made for scrubbing floors. It removes the top layer of paint or as you call it. Oxidation.

@RogerSayers 5 лет назад

Russ, I have a big Fifthwheel RV and it's looking pretty nasty with the oxidation. I'm regretting getting this RV now because it's to hard to keep it up. My question is when buffing do you have to change out the wool pad or just leave it on until you've removed all the oxidation? Ant info. Or tips that you can give me will be truly appreciated. Thanks. By the way, my Fifthwheel is a 36 foot Titanium made in Canada by Douglas RV. They have been outta business for some years now....

@texanson9875 4 года назад

You definitely want to be cleaning your wool pad often to rid it of buildup....you can use a spur looking tool or a screwdriver will also do the trick

@awakenvitality2980 4 года назад

Would this be something I should do before painting the exterior of my motor home? There are lots of pock marks also. What could I use to fill them for smooth surface again?

@integritymobiledetail719 Год назад

Can you compound decals or wet sand them?

Hi Russ, I am a subscriber and I just viewed this old video of yours...very informative..I see you have, or had, a mountain aire by Newmar. I just bought a used 2004 Kountry Star, the next model down from yours. I am excited to clean it up a bit and bring it to SoCal this winter! Let me know if u still have yours and what year it is..

Thanks Russ for this informative video. Just bought a fibreglass travel trailer myself, and although it's in good shape, it does need a little lovin' like what you just did. This will be more than helpful. Cheers!

You sound so enthused; about like me when I need to paint the house. I bet you're sick of doing this. Thanks for the tips and demo.

@giovannibott7242 3 года назад

So I put a RV cover on my RV over the winter. In the spring I noticed rub marks on the fibreglass nose cap. I tried a oxidation removal product. But the rub marks soon shone through. How aggressive can I get while trying to polish these rib marks out. Light rubbing compound?

Don’t know if you will see this or not cause you made this video 4 yrs ago but I have been eating a lot of camper restoration videos and yours sure looks a whole lot simplier than the others. Thanks a lot. Will be checking out your other videos for any other ideas you may have. Thanks again.

Cool! I didn't know you had a detailing biz! Meeeee too! I have that exact same buffer! I LOVE my Dewalt. I told Bart as long as I had that buffer we would never go hungry lol. Beautiful job there Pro! I am so happy to see Scooby is feeling a little better. Yayyyy! How old is she? if it's ok to ask..

@Local_Boydidgood 4 года назад

As the guy who designed that DeWalt; the speed for cutting should be 600-800 rpm max (unless your pad is perfectly balanced and in a large area) Turtle wax is, um... Not great. Compound is WAY more than just a "liquid to lubricate the pad" I love your vid for how it was done but as far as the how-to part, I'll just say, many ways to skin a cat.

@doloresoverton3682 3 года назад

How much wax do you put on the wool pad? How do you clean your pad

@lehuavizsla2606 8 лет назад

Can't thank you enough for that video. My coach is all fibreglass & needs this done & now I know how to. Don't think I could use anything that heavy but may be something lighter? Can you clear coat right away? What do you use for that? A liquid wax?

@DWDinAtlanta 8 лет назад

It looks really good. I think ours will need a good buffing when, ummm, if we ever get her back from the repair shop. Just had a couple warranty things to get fixed and it's been there for 2 months! My son has a boat he has restored. He has worked like crazy to bring the shine back to it. The top of the bow has that thick clear part with glitter underneath. It looks great when it's wet, but when it dries, it's cloudy. You can't see the glitter or color under there. Any thoughts of what to do there? He has buffed, but not sure if he used wool or not. Thanks for the video!

That's something I need to do to my Coach. have you ever used Zepp wet floor polish to detail. They use it a lot in Florida on Boats and RV's. I thought about trying that

i have known people that have used floor wax... its a cheap fix or trick to make fiberglass shine....all floor wax breaks down and will yellow over time.... there are "real" clear coat products to use for fiberglass and work well

@moodberry 2 года назад

I just finished buffing out oxidation on my RV. Took me 4 weeks. But I was told (and I used) to use a foam buffing pad. I had some synthetic wool pads that didn't work as well as the foam pads. I never tried real wool pads. So in your experience, have you tried the coarse 3M foam pads and compared them to wool? I will get a real wool pad if it will make a difference. Thanks.

@rvertv 2 года назад

the course might leave scratches. get one and test a snall area. its not easy to remove oxidation. i had the most luck with wool and you can machine wash the pads for reuse

@moodberry 2 года назад

@@rvertv Thanks but I think you misunderstood my question. I wanted to know if you have ever used the foam pads and if they are better or worse than the REAL wool pads, plus, is there a difference between real wool and synthetic wool pads.

@maxmayhem9778 6 лет назад

I have substantial drip stains from the roof on down on my small 15 year old fiberglass RV. I just bought a Dewalt buffer and wonder if I need to do more than a good wash before I get to the buffing.
