stains. They can be dissolved using ammonia based glass cleaner, warm soapy water and
a little “elbow grease”. Once again, after removing stubborn stains immediately rinse with
clean water.
Drying the recreation vehicle is just as important as washing your vehicle. Tap and well
water contain many chemicals that could water stain your vehicle’s finish.
We suggest using a damp natural or synthetic chamois. There are other drying products such
as lint-free micro-fiber towels that work just as well.
During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals that are spread on winter roads in some geographical areas can have
a detrimental effect on the recreation vehicle’s underbody. If your recreation vehicle is
exposed to these conditions, spray the underbody with a high-pressure hose every time
you wash the exterior of your recreation vehicle.
Take special care to remove mud or other debris that could trap and hold salt or moisture.
After washing your recreation vehicle, wipe off all water drops from the rubber parts around
the slideout and doors.
Waxing
Wax your recreation vehicle once or twice a year, or when painted surfaces do not shed water
well. Use a soft cloth to apply a small amount of wax to the painted surfaces. After the wax
has dried, polish the recreation vehicle with a dry, soft cloth.
Do not wax your recreation vehicle in direct sunlight. Wax it after the surfaces have cooled.
Do not apply wax to any area having a flat black finish as it can cause discoloration. If the
finish has been stained with wax, wipe off the area with a soft cloth and warm water. When
waxing the area around the various openings, do not apply any wax on the weather strip.
If it is stained with wax, the weather strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal around the
opening.
Polishing your recreation vehicle
If painted surfaces have been severely damaged and have lost their original luster and
color tone, polish the surface lightly with a fine polishing compound. Avoid limiting your
polishing to the damaged surface only; polish a somewhat wider area, moving the polishing
cloth in one direction. After polishing, flush the compound from the surface and apply a coat
of wax to regain a beautiful luster.
NOTE: When the slideout or door is frozen, opening it by force may
tear off or crack the rubber gasket that is installed around the slideout
or door. Therefore, pour warm water on the gasket to melt the ice
(wipe off the water thoroughly after opening the slideout or door). To
prevent the weather stripping from freezing, treat it with a silicone
spray.
