It depends, I'm told. Meguairs makes Carnauba based waxes, and they make some synthetic 2.0 types with a Carnauba derivative. I've been told if your in in the direct sun and heat of the South West, the Tec 2.0 wax holds up better, but that if else where the carnauba gives a better result. I've tried both for over 20 years. Both look fantastic and yes the 2.0 holds up better in bright sun light. But I think the natural works better in damp climates , NW, SE, middle Atlantic and New England. I beads better and doesn't wash off as easily. Because our coaches are made of Gel-coated fiberglass, you might consider their marine products where there isn't any paint, such as the roof. The also make about 4 or 5 grades of compound to restore your finish. They also make quick detail-cleaner sprays for the occasional water spot, car splash etc. They have added tire and wheel care products and window cleaners to compete with Eagle One that I haven't tried yet. Eagle one makes some good products I have used for the past 20 years or so, too.

I agree with most of Thomas's posts, with one minor alteration - and then a link to another board with a response to this same basic question. IMO, as long as you do regular maintenance, just about any of todays better products will work well for you:)!
Thomas, my alteration to your post may not be accurate, so you or others please correct me if I'm wrong. If your coach is 'Full Body Paint' from Country Coach, then you have 'Clear Coat' over the paint. If you do not have Full Body Paint, then you have the Gel Coat that Thomas was talking about. (At least, that is how I understand things.)

And here is a thread on IRV2 from just a few days ago:

And as I mentioned in my post to the above thread - whatever anyone is using, is of course going the be the post. I do like the newer Nano tech stuff that Thomas mentioned, and you will see in this referenced thread, I'm a fan of all things Zaino:)!

Best to all, be safe, have fun,
Smitty

Race Glaze is a great cleaner and wax especially for such a larger area.
