This works too !!!!
Long handled soft brush with a large pail of warm water with a dash of Seventh Generation dish soap. Light spray with clean water to rinse and it always comes up a million bucks !!! Been doing them this way for a lot of years. There are more expensive ways if you so choose. Like someone said earlier, if there are a hundred products on the market then you will get a hundred different recommendations
Rubber roof is a different matter though. Nothing that will dry out the rubber should be used!!!!
Just my humble thoughts

Sounds like a winner going to look into the scaffold.
I just buy whatever car wash soap that is on sale when I need it.

I also use wash wax all. we have no place to wash the fifth wheel and since no water is required I can do this in a campground. I'm sure hubby thought I was crazy until he saw the result.....this is year 2!

I have used Maguiars Gold and O'reilly's car wash. With a extendable auto brush.

I am told that we shouldn't use a wash brush on the shiny front end caps of our Rockwoods, or similar, as this scratches the surface, which can be easily seen on bright days. It is suggested that rather a soft mitten type washer on a long handle should be used, in particular for these sorts of surfaces. Do any others have a similar view?

Just bought my Forest River, but before I owned a Trailmanor and at rallies many people commented on how shiny my rig is and how it looked brand new. I use Ice car wash and use twice the recommended amount. It dries to a beautiful shine.

I have used many types of car washes but the Oxyclean car wash is awesome. We usually have to scrub the roof with mr clean sponges but with this almost all of the dirt came off with a soft bristle brush, almost no scrubbing, cut the cleaning to 30%

Wash
Wow, almost like what motor oil do you use. I use Xymol wash and wax and Xymol liquid wax. Good stuff.

I bring out a ladder, liquid carwash soap, a sponge and oower washer. After the body is cleaned I use a little elbow grease & rub on and wipe off paste wax. Big job but it is gratifying.

I see a lot of ads on Polymer coatings, and hard shell coatings. I just use Turtle Wax "Wax and Dry". Water beads up, and coating is way easier than a paste wax that requires buffing. I don't expect it to hold up as well, but I'm fortunate to have indoor storage so I get long life out of it. I've used Meguire's and others, and feel they are all decent products. Most are along the same lines. Have always been curious about the Hard Shell type coatings, but have never tried them.
