How to choose the right wax for your RV

Have you found a visit to the car care aisle of your local auto or RV supply store to buy a wax for your RV a bit overwhelming? There are rows of surface care products claiming multiple benefits for the protection of your RV's surface. There are products that clean and wax at the same time, wax without cleaning, abrasive cleaners, and synthetics.

Shurhold and Wellcraft boats have combined to produce a video explaining these products, what they do and don't do, and how to choose which one might be right for you. Watch the video below to learn more.



Go to Shurhold's website to learn more about the care of your RV and for their cleaning and waxing products.  

So you've just visited that fancy Napa Valley winery, taken the grand tour, and returned to your RV with the superb 7-year old estate-bottled Pinot Noir that spoke to you in the tasting room. Now, what to do to keep it intact while you maneuver the twisty back country two lane roads and pot-holed highways until you can enjoy it in the peaceful serenity of your campground tonight?

Enter the Vinni Bag, the simple way to safely transport (or ship) valuable and/or breakable items. Here is how it  works: Insert a bottle into the center of VinniBag, inflate by mouth or with a hand pump, roll up the bottom flap to form a leak proof seal, and snap the buckle closed. Voila!

The Vinni Bag offers superior protection against impact and leakage and is a versatile travel bag for wine and other liquids and fragile items. It suspends items in an inflatable air cushion that accommodates many shapes and sizes as the air chambers conform to the contents--even several smaller items.

The clear material allows for Visual Inspection without opening and it stores flat, rolled, or folded when not in use. Great for camping, biking, or just bouncing around in your RV.

You can find the Vinni Bag on their website for $28.00 (two for $25 each) with free shipping.
