Roof cleaning

What products are best to clean your RV roof with?

I've heard that the following products are great want to hear from someone that has actually used any of these or other products:

RV Roof Cleaner
30 Second outdoor cleaner
Walex RV Rubber Roof
303 Products Rubber Roof Cleaner
Dicor RP-RG-1GL Roof Guard RV Roof Protectant Spray

Or would just plain Dawn Dish soup work just as well?

I think Simple Green works better than Dawn.

Dawn dish soap is all I ever use with a soft brush on a light weight telescoping pole

Video of me washing my Alpha Systems TPO roof … same one used on the Montana

After it’s washed I let it dry for a few hours then inspect the sealant , roof vent covers, etc

In the files section you will find the flyer put out by Alpha Systems a few years ago at the annual Rally for Roof cleaning.

We have a 2010 3000RK which we keep under cover on gravel parking. Have always used Blue Dawn twice a year. Once in the spring and in the fall before putting away for winter. Use a soft wash brush also to scrub the top. Being parked on gravel the cwind blows in dust, so it needs washing after sitting all winter.

I also use to use Dawn and some bleach to help get rid of mold.

Dawn will take the wax/polish off your rig.
