Hi Tom, in referring to chemicals, I am assuming that you referring to 'LSP's, or Last Step Products, as in waxes and sealants.

Klasse has been used forever on Gel-Coat and for good reason. KAIO is does a great job chemically cleaning the coating, ensuring that the Sealant Glaze will 'stick' or bond. Sealant Glaze can be very easy to use as well. I like to put a little in a fine mist spray bottle, and lightly mist a section. Then using a microfiber I will buff it even, then flip the towel, and buff it dry (you will feel the paint slicken immediately. For large vehicles, such as an RV, it really doesn't get easier to cover large amounts of surface area.

If you are looking for long lasting, more traditional product, the new Glacier Polish is a nice one step cleaner/sealant that offers a slightly deeper shine. Simply apply with a little bit of passion or with a Porter Cable and a Lake Country Kompressor Black Finishing pad, allow to haze and remove.
 
Tom,
I wish I had seen your question earlier. However, If you see this reply, I have a 34' Sea Breeze 5th wheeler. Thought I was doing the right thing but using automovtive cleaning products to clean and polish my 5'er. Well long story short, finally found, and now understand how to clean gel-coat, some great products on PAC. Gel Coat labs has the best cleaning products I have ever seen. 47 hours later, I paid the price for now understanding gel-coat construction and how to clean and keep up. Upkeep is now really easy and my 2000 rig looks new. Got anymore questions, just reply.
