Is there something like a clearcoat or wax that will keep it shiny and help keep the finger prints under control???
I wish I could just coat once and protect but the way I see it, these trucks and trailers get the same attention as our 1:1 vehicles . Frequent minor cleaning instead of letting it get bad and have a lot to deal with It's quick and easy to wipe down the fleet every couple weeks compared to the work involved in keeping the real trucks looking good

Great question though Flyingbeagle. If anyone has a tip on keeping the shine longer, I'm all ears!!!
