The trailer sits outside all the time. *The two paint stores I asked

Is there some product such as an oil, wax, or whatever that would be
good in this application?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

A tarp OVER the trailer would be a big help...- Hide quoted text -

thompsons works great, recoat every couple years for best protection
and dont forget to coat the underside.

I echo the tarp, rain AND SUN attack wood, tarp will protect from
both, leave space so airflow occurs otherwise wood will saturate.
