Regular Maintenance
Wash your trailer regularly using a pH-neutral, gelcoat-safe wash and wax. We recommend using a product with the highest possible wax content to build up a protective layer and maintain gloss and finish over time.

Fibreglass Care
Fibreglass Care
Our composites team carefully cut, prepare, sand, and finish every fibreglass body to a high standard. This attention to detail ensures a smooth, consistent finish, excellent durability, and a clean, professional appearance that lasts.
To help maintain your trailer’s appearance and condition over time, please see our fibreglass care and maintenance tips below.
To care for your fibreglass trailer, follow these tips:
Avoid Harsh Cleaners
Do not use acidic, alkaline, ammonia-based cleaners, or TFR (Traffic Film Remover). These products will strip protective wax layers, dull the surface, and reduce long-term protection.
Waxing
Use a high-quality wax or ceramic coating to protect against UV damage and oxidation. Waxing should be carried out at least once a year, and ideally more regularly to maintain protection and shine.
Protect from the Sun
Keeping your trailer out of prolonged direct sunlight will help preserve the finish. DO NOT USE A CARAVAN OR TRAILER COVER, as covers can trap heat and moisture, particularly in summer. Excess heat build-up can damage or deform both the gelcoat surface and the underlying polyester composite structure over time.
Address Damage Promptly
If minor damage occurs, temporarily cover the area with duct tape to prevent water ingress. Arrange for a proper gelcoat repair as soon as possible to avoid further deterioration.
