Seriously - I searched through dozens and dozens of threads trying to find something that other VXers had used on their cladding with satisfactory results. --- Maybe I should have searched more, but I never saw any mention of Maguire’s Gold or Zaino until now.

(and I sure wish that I had…)

After I get it applied & it's been rained on a couple times, I'll post results
A COUPLE OF TIMES ???

It rained last night for the first time since I applied the Mother’s…
Admittedly, it rained pretty hard, almost all night – but I was reeeeeeeeeeeeeally disappointed when I went out this morning and saw several places where the run-off had removed the Mother’s completely.

I guess I figured, with it being a polymer-based solution, that it would repel the water (better than it did anyhow) instead of washing off so easily – and that it would take a pass through the car wash before I would have to re-apply. (HA! - was I ever wrong!) --- Fortunately it looks like I can get-by just doing a bunch of touch-ups – but still.

Short-term:
It looks like I’ll be trying one of the above-listed products next time…

Long-term:
I intend to do exactly that - preferably sooner rather than later.

I’m certainly no fan of all of that work - especially if the applications are going to be so short-lived, and apparently require re-application so frequently.


Thanks for the suggestions everyone! --- You can officially remove me from the ‘Mother’s people’ list.
