We were lucky enough to be put onto a product called Zep. Our Motorhome is of course older and had lost her shine, not to mention the stuff coming off the roof when it rained. After a lovely time away with it, we decided it was time to give her a good cleaning. That in its self was an eye opener. We found a loose panel over the back wheels that is going to need immediate attention. And a lovely mess at the drivers door, that was well hidden with the sellers arm while he showed us the hydraulics. Water is your enemy unless we are talking black tank, then it is your friend.
Bob up on top of the MH, scrubbing all the years of neglect off the roof, while I attempted to help by doing the sides. I was not as much help as I wanted to be, Arthritis is not just about pain, but it strips your strength way, depending on your flavour of Arthritis, and I have two. Oh and the fact that I fell down the front steps, and a day later my ankle is still mad and swollen, did not help much.
The first day was washing, and rinsing, yes it took a full day, with the help of one child, he may have slowed us down. The second day we attacked or Bob Attacked the roof with Zep clear dry floor finish. He managed to get two coats on the roof, before the weather decided to work against us. After a small rain delay, we got a coat on the sides of the Motorhome, oh my gosh, what a difference, the old girl looks 10 years younger. Again the rain, gave us a much needed break, but we were unable to get the other coats on that we wanted to. But when we do, she is going to shine, with the best of them.
Someday we will have all the repairs done, and we hope she loves us back as much as we love her.
