I think I may have tried everything at least once!
My favorite is Protect All in an aerosol can. It is by far the easiest to use. I've even tried it side by side on the hood of my car to see if it would work as well as the harder to use stuff. I couldn't tell the difference in shine or durability.
If you have ever used Pledge on furniture, you know how to use Protect All.
One aerosol can does the whole motorhome. You can buy spray bottles in lots of places, including Wal-Mart. I've only found aerosol cans at Camping World.

Fred,
These are very good products for fiberglass/gelcoat. I use them all the time with great lasting results.

The best looking, longest lasting wax or sealant I've used.
I'm free of prostate cancer for 5 years now.
All men over age 50 should get an annual PSA blood test. Mine had a low reading, but the yearly jump was significant. The biopsy showed cancer just entering the aggressive stage. Dr. Hackenslash removed it.

We have used Nu Finish with great results. Easy to put on and take off, and leaves a nice shine, and it lasts. We use the paste (really a cream) rather than the liquid. Have been using it for years, first on our boats and cars, and now on the MoHo.

I've used NuFinish (in the orange bottle) on my motorhomes for the past 8 years and it does a great job. It's available everywhere for around $6-7 a bottle which will easily do the entire motorhome. It takes me around 8 hours to do the entire motorhome. I usually spread the task over a few days in deference to my aging body.

I have been using a product called Zymol. Goes on and off easily. I use two buffers - one for wax on, one for wax off. Saves a lot of time changing the buffer heads...
