Washing my Jayco Redhawk

[larhee]

What is the best way to wash my Jayco Redhawk? Hose? Power wash? truck wash? It sits in my driveway under some trees and I want to wash it before I put a cover over it for protection from the tree droppings. thanks!

My wife just bought a foam cannon, so I use that to soap up one side. Then it's a sponge mop and bucket of soapy water from Home Depot. It's tall enough I can reach the top. After that, a rinse from an inexpensive power washer.


Drip dry. Front cap, if buggy, some times gets Simple Green to de-bug the cap.

Try Camco Wash and Wax! Works great for us.

Kinda the same method.

Preclean any major spots, such as black streaks, bad bugs on the front cap.

Then foam cannon a section, with an extended handle carwash brush that section with a bucket of soapy water. Rinses with the pressure washer.

I too let it drip dry, so I tend to do it in the late afternoon, when my TT is in the shade.

I use the wash solution that came with the Perma shield, and just use a soft mitt and hand wash in sections, drying as I go. It take me three hours by myself. I have a guy that comes now, and he uses a pressure washer (you need to go easy around the cubbies outside) and he does everything else by hand for $6 a foot.

Foam cannon, SOFT wash brush, dry and wax with marine wax on full body paint. The wax makes it much easier to wash for the next time

Simple Green and soft brush on the roof. Rv wash and wax with soft brush/hand mitt for remainder of the rig. Drip dry unless the sun comes round, then dry with old towel on extension to reach the top. Just did this yesterday and took 2 hrs. 2022 Redhawk 26m
