    This is one of those which oil / tires threads. Any finish protection is better than none and there are a myriad brands selling a myriad types of products. Many decades of experience has me using S-100 polish for getting out those small surface scratches and then Mequiar's yellow #26 paste wax for protection. For those on-the-spot touch ups, I use Griot's Garage Best of Show Detailer - the bestest, slickest, shiniest detailer I have tried, and I tried many. O'Rielly's now sells Griot's products.

    I was told this works well for most surfaces. Haven't used it yet.

    Wash RLT with soap and water just like car, polish and remove bugs with Lemon Pledge, it's cheap, removes bugs, leaves a nice shine, and as an added bonus smells good.
