E.
If stubborn stains persist, such as road tar, brake dust, oil, etc., use only a product compatible with
stainless steel. An over-the-counter window cleaner (like Windex) will often remove foreign material.
If a harsher cleaner is needed, we recommend “NEVR-DULL,” available at many general hardware or
automotive stores.
2.
Surface rust: From time to time, surface “spin out” rust may appear on the stainless steel. Normally the "spin
out" rust comes from the wheel, lug nuts, locator pins, etc. In many cases, regular normal cleaning of your
decorative wheel product, as indicated above, will remove any surface rust. If, however, a stubborn rust spot
remains, utilize “NEVR-DULL” (a wadding polish), applying constant pressure to remove any surface
blemish. You may have to repeat this process on hard to remove spots. After cleaning with “NEVR-DULL,”
you may want to re-shine your wheel products using Windex or a similar product.
3.
Petroleum based tire conditioners: While the use of these products (Armor-All, Son-of-a-Gun, etc.) may
improve the appearance of your tires, these types of products will form a film on your stainless steel wheel
cover product. To remove, use a mild cleanser, like Windex, to restore the shine.
IMPORTANT
Remember to periodically check the tightness of your wheel cover product.
Rubber Roof Care & Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance of your recreational vehicle, including your rubber roof, is important for trouble-free
performance. Normal maintenance is simple and easy, and does not require special materials. Keep the roof clean.
Clean the roof at least four (4) times annually. For normal cleaning:
1.
Use RC100 Decor Synthetic Roof & General Purpose cleaner or a mild laundry detergent.
CAUTION
Do not use general purpose cleaners or conditioners containing petroleum solvents, harsh abrasives or citric-based
cleaners. You may cause irreparable damage to your roof.
2.
Rinse the complete roof with clean water to remove any loose dirt or debris.
3.
Using a medium bristle brush, along with your selected cleaner mixed with water, scrub the entire roof. Rinse
thoroughly with clean water to avoid residue build up on the roof or sidewalls of the vehicle.
4.
For more difficult stains, you may use cleaning materials mentioned above in a more concentrated mixture.
For stubborn stains, use of a cloth dampened with household bleach. Household bleach can be used (fully
concentrated) and allowed to soak in stubborn stain areas, then scrubbed with a medium bristle brush or rag.
Rinse thoroughly. Do not pour the bleach on the roof and allow it to run down the sides of the vehicle.
Concentrated bleach may damage the graphics.
WARNING
Use caution when working on top of your vehicle. The wet roof membrane may be extremely slippery.
