Cleaning roof

What's the best product to clean a rubber roof. Do you clean the roof?

[TURBS]

Soap and water is what I use.

I use the Murphy's Oil Soap.

For routine cleaning, I use Thetford Rubber Roof Cleaner & Conditioner. I use that on it 3 to 4 times a year.

For heavy mildew stains (I've only had to deal with it once, on this used Cruiser I have now, when I bought it), Tilex Mold and Mildew Remover works wonders. It took 6 bottles, about 4 hours, and a lot of elbow grease, but I got that roof looking great. A word of caution is to liberally keep the sides washed down to prevent the bleach streaking your paint and decals.

Turbs;
What kind of soap do you use? Do you use a soft scrub brush or just terri cloth rags or what? I imagine some soaps would be incompatible with rubber, so let us know. Tanks!

I use a very mild detergent and just enough to make water soapy.
I use a soft bristle brush for excessively dirty area's and a normal wash rag for the rest.
The cleaner you keep it the easier it is to keep clean.

I owned a Montana 5th wheel for 6 years and never did anything to the rubber roof! They are tougher than you might think. My 2011 GT was a lower cost basic unit and it had a rubber roof. My 2012 DS360 has way more goodies an also the FG roof. And don't you know the only fg roof I have owned is the only one that leaked. FR took care of it, but so much for fg roofs superiority. Can't prove that by me.
