What type of wax are you guys using? I recently waxed our 21bhs with an auto wax (carbano) it looks good but it doesn't feel really smoothe like a car would. Any thoughts or suggestions for next time?

Great question. I would also be interested in what is best for the Camplites. I have read on another board about how they wax the front of their travel trailers with 3 coats of wax to make bug removal easier. Do any of you do this? And since I am waiting for my Camplite to be built, once I get it, should waxing it be one of the first things I should do?
Located in Kentucky and Florida at present

A high end mcguires wax is my choice, and I agree that an extra coat on the radius would be nice.  Did this to mine and it is nearly as slick as my new ridgeline.  Will probably wax the radius front about once per month.  Oh, paste wax only for me, about 11$ at Walmart.  Enjoy

Wax immediately. On a car I would say to wait a bit to allow the paint to cure, but the exterior board on our campsites has probably been in inventory and fully cured.  Manual say to not use tire blackening stuff as this has solvents and is bad for trailer tires that do not see daily motion.
