    Possibly useful information......

    Hi, guys,
    This may be of interest when selecting a product for your cladding. I've been using Turtle Wax Ice polymer coating on my cladding for a couple of years. I apply it 3 or 4 times a year, and it does a good job of keeping the cladding looking nice. Recently, the shut off mechanism failed when I was fueling up at a local convenience store. Gas ran down the cladding in a foot
    wide stream! I ran into the store, bought a big bottle of water, and rinsed off everything the gas touched. I did not wipe it with anything. After the water evaporated, there was NO DAMAGE AT ALL! I was amazed, and I thought it would be worth passing along to the group. It may save someone some trouble........
