TIFFIN MOTORHOMES –PHAETON® Chapter 13 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
13-3
Likewise avoid washing with brushes. Even though you may not see brush marks now, the damage will happen as the
bristles wear down. One washing and your coach is fine but the next washing leaves it covered with scratches. Use
lambswool wash pads to avoid these issues.
Use only 100% cotton towels to dry your vehicle. Be cautious of terry towels made in Taiwan and China. They are not
checked for fiber content as they enter the USA and usually contain up to 30% polyester.
Adding vinegar to your wash water and washing in the morning or evening will help prevent water spots. Water spots
damage the exterior of your coach the same way they damage glass shower doors. They etch their way into the surface
and removal becomes difficult. Prevention becomes the key. Wash one side at a time, rinse, and then dry quickly first
using Mary Moppins EZE Squeegee followed by a towel placed over the Cleaning Head. Buff water spots immediately
with a 1000 grit polishing compound or RenewzIt—a product by Mary Moppins which removes water spots, scratches
and oxidation.
To remove oil and grease remember an important rule of cleaning: Give your product time to work.
Dab a bit of concentrated cleaner like CleanEz by Mary Moppins—never an orange based cleaner or one with
petroleum distillates—onto a soft cloth. Apply to the oil spot and wait 10 to 15 minutes before rubbing lightly to
remove the oil. Rinse immediately.
Seals
The seals around the doors, windows, vents, slide-out trim and external seams should be checked at least semiannually.
Additionally, the roof seams should be inspected for cracking or peeling annually. If deterioration is noted during a
routine-maintenance inspection, reseal the seams or seals with an approved sealant to prevent leaks. Your Tiffin
Motorhomes dealer can perform the resealing inspections and subsequent work, if any, for you. It is recommended that
a Tiffin Motorhomes authorized service center perform these inspections periodically and perform necessary resealing
when necessary.
