I use Rejex on the cap and F11 everywhere else.
I think F11 does a great job of providing a superior shine and does a good job of fairly easy bug removal.

Rejex can go on smooth surfaces and glass, but not porous surfaces like rubber.
F11 don't care where it goes.
I ordered both products so I don't know if you can get them locally.

Easy prep. Easy On. Easy Off. Once a year.
IMO...
Turtle Wax Hybrid. Watch you tube reviews and try a bit yourself. I did and was amazed. Excellent results and it doesn't break the bank. I use it on all my vehicles now.

I use products from a local detailing shop (3D). I wash my own rig and vehicles and I think the biggest plus I've found is washing with deionized water. I have a deionized tank in my garage hooked to my water line that is only used for washing my vehicles. It takes out all the hard deposits, which cause water spots. It literally dries spot free. Following a wash, I use a quality spray detailer (Bead Maker Protectant, The Last Coat, and Detail Tech Spray Sealant). You can't go wrong with many of the newer products out there.

There are some topics that get the snot beat out of them.
Which truck to buy
What tires to buy
What is better disk or drum
There are many others that are to numerous to mention.
Wax is very subjective. Mostly depends on where you live. For the most part any wax will do a good job. You can spend hundreds on wax and still not be satisfied. i use Nu Finish because it's great at removing oxidation. Do a search and there are numerous threads here on the same subject.

Yep, very subjective. For me easier is better...as long as the result is good. After doing some research I also landed at Turtle Wax Hybrid. Once the trailer is clean just Spray on / Wipe off. Got half the trailer done yesterday. So far so good.

I just got and used the turtle wax hybrid ceramic wax coat. Spray on wipe off. I polished with nufinish then sprayed this on and man i tell you the 6 year old rv looks brand new. The Youtube reviews are real good. the cost 12 dollars a bottle and more than enough for the rv. safe for decals also.

Whatever works best for you. I normally use a Meguire's product though NuFinish works well for me too. Is it any better then any others - no idea. My luck with ReJex 'sucks'. Mega priced 'elite' waxes are seldom any better then the usual Walmart shelf brands. For my truck - Meguire's Ultimate Wash and Wax is about all it has seen with only a few exceptions and at 10 years old still gets compliments ( https://www.meguiars.com/automotive/...8-48-oz-liquid).

I will agree Rejex is the only way to go on the front cap, if you are dealing with a lot of bugs.
