What do you wash your RV with? Dish soap, RV wash, laundry detergent?????

I washed mine today with a Camco brand RV wash, wasn't real pleased with the results.

I use car wash soap like McGuire's, Blue Coral, or Mother's. Do NOT use dish soap as it is too harsh. I use a soft RV brush on a broom stick along with changing the wash water frequently.

Same thing I wash the cars with. Turtle Wax Car Wash..

Those other things will strip off any wax you may have on the rig and will usually leave a 'haze' when it drys..

What didn't impress you with the Camco stuff?

Dawn dish soap, soft brush on extension handle and purple power on black streaks. I don't let it get real dirty and wash it often. Wash roof 2-3 times per year as well. I also hand detail and polish one annually with Nu-Fishing.
