Wash/Soap Recommendations?

When we lived in CA I had a "guy" that washed my RV for me but now that we've moved to CO I haven't found a suitable replacement and I need to give her a good bath before our first trip of the season. Any recommendations soap wise? I was looking at this as an option: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001FCE5AI...ing=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks!
Jeff

Almost like talking oil with an car guy. Lots of options and opinions.

It is a full body paint, so any good quality automotive wash will work.

How do you plan to apply the soap? Bucket with a long carwash brush? Foam sprayer from a garden hose or pressure washer?

I like Meguiares products. For the past 5 years or more, I have been using their Ultimate Wash and Wax. It does a good job cleaning. Wax part of it, its so so does not last long.

When the bottle is empty, I am thinking about trying their new Snow Foam Xtreme.

Like Jagiven said, it’s full body paint, so car products are the go to. I have been using the Turtle Wax Hybrid soap before and on the car and truck and really like it, it was recommended by a detailer friend. The paint on them is fairly soft so don’t use a bristle brush, it WILL leave fine scratches. I use a lambs wool pd on a pole and a lambs wool wash mitt, microfiber is another good choice.
