Morning everyone.
Last year I polished my gel coat(grp) motorhome with Autoglym Super Resin Polish and the waxed It with Colignite 476s.
This year I have bought Collinite Fleetwax Paste #885 Marine & Aeronautical Wax. My question is do I first need to use somthing to get rid of last years wax first, if so then what product is best. Thankyou in advance for any advice.

Short answer, ideally yes.
if you still have some Autoglym polish left that should be able to remove any remaining wax. If you want to try something else, I use Dodo Juice LimePrime, which is a pre-wax cleaner and easy to use.
I have not used the Collinite 885, the main reason for using 476 is it seems to be the longest lasting wax there is, plus it is very reasonably priced.

On a similar line...we are treating our 15 year old Hymer Tramp to a makeover on Monday..A car valeting specialist is coming to wash, cut, polish and wax our van, let's see what it looks like then..first time for everything....I. cannot be bothered to do it myself and suffer the next morning with aches and pains all-over...Let the Man do the Van....
