Can anyone recommend a good all in one cleaner/polish/protector theres so many products out there and the fibreglass body is a bit dull so basicly a renovator any help would be greatly appreciated

Also am looking for a good awning cleaner too

Car shampoo and polish is mentioned in the camplet book.

The gel coat on a fibreglass body can be restored using a rubbing compound - such as the stuff you use when you do a gel coat repair. I use International Liquid Rubbing which is basically a slightly abhrasive rubbing solution used to get the final gloss shine on a repair. You then need to put a protective layer over that or else the gel coat will fade - eg International Premium Polish.

I get mine from a boat chandlers http://www.1stmark.co.uk/ but any chandlers will do.

Sorry - can't help with an awning cleaner as I've always worked on the principle that it's best not to clean beyond dry brushing any mud off the awning.

many thanks for the suggestions especially the boat ones its something I never even thought of

Before you use a glass fibre polish on your unit, just make sure that the surface that you are trying to polish actually is Glass Fibre!

I thought the front and back of my Pennine Pathfinder was Glass Fibre but it is actually Plastic.

Funny enough someone else recommended silky as well so going to try that first many thanks to all for the advice
