Do you polish your car? if you do, then that's what to use.
If not I use either Autoglym or Meguiars. Autoglym is the easier to work with though.
------------- XVI yes?
As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

How are you intending to store the van? Inside undercover? Outside but covered? Outside naked and unadorned?

The problem with Autoglym polish is that if you get it on the rubber window surrounds you can't get it off, very much the same as people have found the same application with the car. That's why I use Greased Lightning Showroom shine as you can clean the whole caravan including the windows and roof vents and leaves no residue on the rubber window surrounds at all. One products cleans everything so saves time and money in the long term.

We had our caravan done with Paintseal so no need to polish it as a good rain storm makes it look like it has just been polished. Best investment we ever made as our caravan is kept in storage so not always easy to wash down and polishing is now beyond my physical abilities.

We have used Mer polish and found it to be very good.

On previous caravan we used Meguirs 3 step and the results were very pleasing. We did not have to wash or polish the caravan again for another 2 years at which point we sold it anyway.

Never had that problem with Autoglym super resin polish Tango and I have used it for years?.
A lot of these polishes all seem to have a bit of cut to them,
If I had a new van I think that I would only go near it with something pure like canuba just for overwintering

Hi
Autoglym here as well.
Try it if you do not like it, try another until you find the right one for you.
Can't say fairer than that.
