CARE OF BODY COMPONENTS
EXTERIOR
Aluminum
Your new Jayco parktrailer has an improved smooth metal with a new polyester automotive paint
finish. This metal surface may be cleaned and polished as you would your automobile.
#
CAUTION: We recommend that you do not take your park trailer through automatic car
washes and extreme caution must be used if utilizing any type of pressure sprayer around all
attachments, doors, windows, appliance vents, etc. to avoid forcing water inside the unit,
possibly damaging components.
All corners or flat trim have putty tape sealer between the trim and aluminum skin. This sealant can
be damaged by weather elements for cracking and dry-out conditions. Clean the edges and cap seal
the edge of molding and skin surface, using sealant recommended by your dealer. This process
should be done at least once per year.
Fiberglass Sidewalls
Fiberglass walls are very durable and are easy to maintain. To keep them looking nice, wax and buff
them once a year. Standard automotive cleaning soaps and waxes workwell for general cleaning and
maintenance. In addition, do not dry wipe surface. Special cleaners and waxes are available at
automotive and RV stores.
Scratches and chips can be easily fixed by an experienced fiberglass repair shop. Any major damage
should be repaired as soon as possible to keep cracks from spreading.
Roof
I
WARNING: If your park trailer is not equipped with a roof ladder, do not walk on
your roof without placing planking or decking material on the roof. Use of
planking/decking material will aid in distributing your weight and therefore avoid
potentially damaging point loads. To adequately spread loads, make sure you span
three or more rafters when placing the planking/decking . Units produced with a roof
ladder incorporate use of a heavier weight decking material. Due to this optional
construction, additional planking/decking is not necessary.
The proper care, cleaning and maintenance of your Royal Tuff-Ply TPO roof is quite simple because
of the basic properties and longevity of the material itself.
Periodic cleaning is the primary maintenance. The Royal Tuff-Ply TPO manufacturer suggests
using Murphy’s Oil Soap with a soft nylon brush or sponge. DO NOT USE solid or granulated
cleaners, as they will mar the natural finish.
