Washing the van (1 Viewer)

[Mike800966]

Looking through this section I see various methods, can't say i can beleive the waterless stuff so I ask the question please.

If you have a hose with good pressure, with what do you wash your van?,
I use a telescopic brush but I have been looking at snow foam thingy, also do I need to junk my stock of wash wax, will it foam up enough, is the wax inhibiting the special- dirt- releasing foam?
Thanks for looking

Use fenwicks caravan/Motorhome cleaner, followed by fenwicks Bobby dazzler . Applied from a washing up bowl by a long handled big car washing brush. No pressure at all . Seems to work. Used fenwicks overwinter stuff. And this really worked , almost a white roof when van picked up from where it winters. , no algae at all.

The waterless stuff is rubbish, would you rub a clean cloth over dirty paint work? No.. good old fashioned wash every time

I’d also be very careful with pressure washers,, the seams on MHs are not geared up for the pressure, and could lead to all sorts of probs,,

Washed ours yesterday
Hose with garden rose to wet down first and to "blow" some of the dust off.
Roof snowfoamed then the telescopic brush without the hose. Rinse
Sides the same process.
Have used ordinary wash/wax shampoo through the snowfoam duffer and its okay-saves wasteing it!
Tesco currently have Simonies! For £8 works better.
Is your assistant a help or a hindrance ?? Or is it just mine?

No pressure washer as believe can affect seams.
