I have always used Silky

Easy to use and one small tub lasts a very long time.


Can also be used on many other items.

I use waterless cleaner (such as miracle drywash) just to remove the streaks - effortless, and then wash the van with water. I am currently using aldi version of drywash which is just as good.

Buyer beware, if Aldi get their Loo Blue chemical instock again its Rubbish, it does not break down toilet paper or other solid matter as good as any of the main brands do.

We got caught out last season by buying a couple of bottles of the stuff at the same time, you need such a large dose per tank for it to do anything of a job that its false economy. Its the old addage that you get what you pay for, and its certainly true with this stuff.

I haven't used Aldi but other cheap brands and its true - it's false economy especially when the toilet is used for everything.

For cleaning the caravan we have been using Towsure's own and that does the job.

Aldi caravan cleaner and black streak remover both work a treat.

Another vote for silky, when you remove the black streaks give it a going over with it, I polished mine back end of last year.

Managed to get down to the storage yard today to wash and clean it and was amazed how easy the black streaks came of just using fenwicks caravan cleaner (diluted) and a brush / sponge.

Got a tub of silky some where but gave up looking for it this morning
