I was told by a auto detail shop owner about 12 years ago to use natural carnauba wax without petroleum distillates on all of my decals to prevent cracking and peeling. He said Carnauba wax keeps the decal adhesive and material from drying out and shrinking and any wax with petroleum distillates will dissolve the adhesive over time. It worked on our last two fifth wheels that sat outside year round and never had any cracking or peeling. Owned first one for 7 years, the second for 6. Am doing same on our MS emblems (stripes are painted).
