Well I am all ready for the Red Max & find it has been discontinued & is
unavailable in all the Vegas Lowe's stores. Has anyone done research on
a replacement. I have been told that the Zep wet look finish is the same but I am a little skeptic. I have done too much work to screw
it up now. I am sure a lot of people are going to run into the same
situation. Any info would be appreciated.

I used the ZEP product on the front and rear caps and it looks amazing. I put about six coats on each.

You can order it from Lowes online. Our local store still stocks it.

I used ZEP Wet Look Floor Finish and it came out great. Four coats required less than 1/2 gallon for our 24ft class C.

We couldn't find Red Max Pro either so we used Zep Wet Look floor finish we found at Lowes and our 2000 National Seabreeze came out great. Prep work was a pain but our motorhome looks fantastic. Good luck.

Lowes is changing over to the Zep product. Same stuff, more money. Works the same as Red Max


Today is my personal best for most consecutive days alive.

Zep Wet Look is the same as RMP and usually needs four coats to get good results. Zep High Traffic also works but needs another coat or two to get the same results but is less expensive and is supposed to last longer.

So which Red Max is it? Our local lowes has "Stain resistant" and "low maintenance."

Is either of these the correct one?
