Fenwick's Motorhome Cleaner is probably best for the job.

Any good car shampoo, and a lot of elbow grease.

HI

We was in the same position only last week.Forget about spending loads of money on top branded stuff in early stages of cleaning your van.

You need Astonish Mould &Mildew Blaster it’s available from Poundshop B&M and Wilkes about £1 a bottle is absolutely amazing.

Just spray it on a dry day give it a gentle wipe with no hard scrubbing required and see the results.

I also bought years ago left in cupboard Vistal mild surface cleaner just polish in circles and this will remove the hardest Grimm areas and it’s like a miracle clearner do little ares at a time.

The Astinish will even remove existing old water marks.

My motorhome roof and sides looks amazing never been as clean it 12 years.

Finally use shampoo of your choice was and rinse as you would normally.

It's nice to be important. But its more important to be nice.

Safe set of tall ladders. The lack of these means the central strip of our MH roof doesn't get close attention.

do not use either of these! the astonish contains bleach and the other will scratch the paintwork, just thoroughly soak your motorhome using a normal car wash then leave for a while, have a cuppa tea, then set too with a soft brush and plenty of hot water and then rinse off with even more water!
