Proper maintenance and cleaning of your RV includes the roof. The roof receives a combination of water and sun damage. CrossRoads RV Incorporated states owners should use a mild household soap solution on a rubber roof. Your vehicle's manufacturing manual may offer recommendation about heavy cleaning solutions. Wipe the roof with a gentle motion.
The exterior surfaces of your travel trailer include the outer walls and the exterior door. Camping World advises that you use a multi-purpose RV cleaner not strong automotive cleaners. Regular automobile solutions can damage the surface of the vehicle. You can choose between power washing or hand washing for a softer cleaning.
A recreation vehicle is susceptible to bugs and rodents entering from the outside. Create a cleaning schedule for the living area. Basic cleaning supplies can include a broom, window cleaner and a multi-purpose cleaner. The multi-purpose cleaner reduces your storage needs and offers a fast solution. Make sure you wipe any spills or grease stains.
The sheets and blankets on your travel trailer bed can trap dirt and debris. Clean the sheets and covers once a week in a mild laundry detergent and warm water. You can add a fabric softener to make sheets softer. When cleaning the wood furniture, avoid using a heavy furniture polish. Keep books or newspapers stored in a drawer.
Your RV's floors receive daily wear, which can lead to early replacement. One way to reduce the wear is removing shoes when entering the trailer. The type of cleaning depends on the floor. A hardwood floor can use a mild cleaning solution. If you have loose rugs on the floor, lift the rugs when cleaning.
