I have stopped using wax on the graphics on my 07 MH. I found the wax was doing more harm than good.
I found this product while asking the same type of question you are.

I use the graphic restorer at least once a year try for twice. So far its as kept the graphic looking good.
Good Luck

Do you use the Max's Restorer on the graphics and regular wax on the gel coat that is not covered with a graphic?
I use a mobile detailing service to wash and wax my 5th. They have been using wax on everything for 8 years and my graphics are not faded at all. Not sure if I could get a mobile detailer to use wax on the gel coat and restorer on the graphics. I'm sure it would take longer and cost more.

A few ways the "fix" your graphics.
Not too bad.

I actually had to fast forward thru that c rap to see the outcome…..lol.
But I just got 300% stupider after watching just a bit of it.
I hope you posted this sarcastically!

Simple answer Yes. The restorer has to be put on in the shade, it has something to do with the product. I tried once to do in the sun and could feel the build up of heat on my finger. A little goes a long way, first rub it in then wipe off excess. I know there are alot of waxes out there and everybody has their favorite. I have been using NuFinish for years and am happy.
Good Luck which ever way you go

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I'm not at a point where a major restoration of the graphics (sand, repaint, or replace etc.) is called for.
The use of a restorer which has to be done in the shade is practical when it's a DIY job, but not when using a mobile detailer who probably wouldn't want to do 1/2 the job and then come back when the other half is in the shade. Plus the detailer most likely wouldn't be familiar with using the restorer.
I think I am going to choose a wax with good UV protection and see if my detailer will use it (properly).
Thanks again for all the responses.

Let us know what wax you find that actually has good UV protection that will last long enough to be of any value.
