CORattler, I asked Burlington Graphics what to use and Ashley sent me the below recommended instructions:
The graphic package you have purchased with your Keystone RV was designed for superior durability and requires little maintenance. Please follow the steps below to get the best performance from your graphic package:
• Wash your graphics with soap and water or car wash detergents. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use abrasive sponges (like SOS pads) or abrasive cleaners (like Comet) to clean your graphics.
• Start cleaning at the bottom of the graphic and work up, rinsing the abrasive dirt and contaminants away as you go. Starting at the top can leave streaks below where concentrated cleaner runs down and effectively cleans that surface area more than adjacent areas.
• We recommend that you do not wash your graphics with a high-pressure sprayer such as a power washer. Try to avoid the graphics when power washing your RV walls. High-pressure sprayers can contain enough force to lift the edge of your graphic and cause it to peel.
• Do not overcoat your graphics with clear paint of any kind. Your graphics already have a clear coat over them.
• Do not let gasoline or other fuels drip or remain on your graphics for any length of time. If a spill occurs, wipe off the graphic and rinse with water immediately.
• Do not use petroleum-based solvents on your graphics. They will soften the vinyl and damage the clear coat and / or ink.
• Do not apply wax over your graphics, especially if the wax contains any petroleum or silicone distillates. Car wax will not improve the finish of graphics and can damage the surface of vinyl graphics after repeated exposure. If you do wax your RV, wax that has dried along the edge of a graphic can be removed by first softening it with rubbing alcohol and cotton swabs. Be sure to rinse the area after cleaning.

as an aside to the already known issues that exist with the keystone decals, be VERY careful about what you use on the camper to wash it. As a novice camper many years ago, we used Simple Green on the walls to clean the exterior. What a huge mistake as the decals peeled very quickly after application. Be sure to stick with only approved wash products. That was an expensive lesson.
