Care of Paint and Surfaces
Paintwork
The paint coatings on your caravan are no different to that of your car in that they need regular care and maintenance.
Washing:
Only use mild detergents free of ammonia when washing your caravan. Always check the label to ensure
the washing solution is nonabrasive, contains no ammonia or caustics.
Polishing:
New caravans should only be polished with wax-based polishes that are nonabrasive. When removing
scratches from paintwork use a fine finishing compound. Cutting pastes are too abrasive and will expose the base
material.
Protection:
Carnauba wax is an excellent protection against oxidisation. The paint on your caravan should be waxed
annually regardless of being kept under cover to protect the surfaces from oxidisation.
Internal Surfaces
Laminates and internal wall surfaces should be cleaned with a damp soft cloth. For stubborn marks use a mild
detergent based cleaner.
**Do not use cleaners that contain ammonia or caustics**
Acrylic Windows
Windows should be cleaned with a clean, soft, nonabrasive cloth to avoid scratches and soapy water.
**Do not use any cleaners that contain ammonia or solvents. **
Mirrors
Do not use solvents or chemicals when cleaning mirrors. Warm water and a soft clean cloth is the best method.
Cleaners and solvents may affect the reflective backing causing what’s known as “creep” where the edges of the
mirror discolour.
Shade and screen care
•
Do not close blinds while window is open. Air pressure can dislodge the blind material from its guide damaging
it.
•
Always open and close blinds and screens carefully and evenly with two hands ensuring screens and blind
material feeds evenly through the guides.
