Awesome comes in a simply spray bottle. I rinse the awning on bottom, sprayed Awesome on, let it sit for about 10 minutes, I used a battery operated swirling brush ($40), rinse off, awning. On the top of the awning I used a simple soft garage push broom to scrub the Awesome on the top of awning. The whole process took me less than one hour including the 2 15 minute soak time.

Thanks for the detailed description of how you use Awesome. I'm still wondering about the concern of not getting it on the windows. Do you take special precaution not to let it get on your windows or decals which may be discolored from the product? I ask this because other posters have expressed these concerns and warnings.
Your process seems pretty straightforward but if you have to cover the windows and the sides of your RV it becomes quite a bit more complicated. So, if you don't mind, I would really appreciate your reaction to these concerns.

nothing wrong with awesome will not hurt windows or aluminum . i use it all the time . for me it's a step stool and a sponge . spry on wipe off no need to let is soak . then a treatment of UV protection for that i use the turtle inside outside protectant . lasts longer then 30 days / last time i did is was last spring and it's still nice . twice a yr is all that's needed .

How about decals on the side of an RV?

I would not use anything on decals other than mild dish soap.

i've used it to remove the black streaks caused by seals but have never cleaned decals with it . since i wash and polish my unit at least 3 times a years my decals don't get dirty . i have seen people wipe down there whole aluminum campers with it without issues though . for cleaning the awnings it's great along with many other things

Wet and Forget is NOT a cleaner. It is for mold and mildew. You mix it as directed , put it in garden sprayer, spray on and let it dry. DO NOT HOSE OFF. Last 12 months. Not being nasty, but I think your overthinking this whole deal. I can only say that the Awsome used to say on the bottle not to get in glass windows, or painted plastics. I can also say that I personally used it ONLY ONCE, and it left dull streaks on my sides of the rv and I was never able to buff the out. Simple Green is what I have always used on my awning, it’s biodegradable, safe , fairly cheap, and works. I’m outta here, good luck.

Hi "outta here!" -- I believe you are absolutely correct in that I am overthinking this BUT I don't want to end up with the problem YOU had with the dull streaks!
I like Simple Green and have used it many times. To be on the safe side that's what I'm going to use!
Thanks to all who helped but probably confused me, as is the problem with a forum like this, but having said that I think this forum is THE BEST and I've used it over and over again and will continue to do so.
And NOW I'm OUTTA HERE TOO!
