Storage & Care
Long Term Storage
To maximise the life of your camper you should consider additional protection from the elements. UV light and
moisture can have an adverse effect on materials when left unprotected outside. This section outlines some of
the things you can do as an owner to protect your investment.
Interior
Moisture in the smallest amounts can cause mould. High humidity and cooling temperatures can create
condensation, additionally condensation can form under mattresses due to temperature differences between
warm bodies on top and the bed base being cold from outside temperatures. As a precaution you can do the
following:
• Check under mattress for moisture before packing up. If moisture is found allow to thoroughly dry before
closing your camper.
• Store 1 or 2 moisture absorbing packs/dehumidifier packs in the camper to draw away any residual water
vapour.
•
If packing up with damp canvas, open and dry out the camper at the first opportunity when returning
home. Dry all canvas thoroughly and follow point 2.
Exterior
Soft floor: The vinyl cover on the tent of your soft floor camper is designed as a travel cover not a storage cover.
For storage at home it is recommended that you use a camper cover or tarpaulin to protect from UV and the
elements.
Hard floor: Ensure all seals on the camper have proper compression at 30-50%, are free of dirt and have no
canvas protruding past the seals. UV light and the elements can over time cause seals and fitting to perish and
become brittle. The use of a camper cover or tarpaulin will extend the life of components and keep your
investment looking better for longer.
Care of Paint and Surfaces
Paintwork
The paint coatings on your camper 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 camper. Always check the label to
ensure the washing solution is nonabrasive, contains no ammonia or caustics.
Polishing: New campers 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 camper 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 solvents, ammonia or caustics**
