We have a 2014 Winnebago Sightseer which is in desperate need of a good wash, etc. Considering having a mobile company here do the dirty work for me. A neighbor recommended them and had them put a sealant on his fiberglass roof. Wondering if that's a good idea. Not sure what all that entails, but it's only about $50....also any other suggestions? Will probably have a wash/wax job done....I have complete body paint, so no decals to worry about wearing off....

If you have full body paint by Winnebago, then you also have several layers of clear coat on your paint. Doubt you need to waste $$ having it waxed.Ours is a 2010 suncruiser, and the paint looks as good as the day we picked it up. Never waxed, just gently washed.

That's a pretty good price. I pay more than that in this area, and this is a low economy area. figure 2-5 dollars per foot, especially if it includes the roof.

The price of $50 is just for the sealant on the roof....price for wash is generally around $5 a foot....$9 a foot for wash/wax

I just paid $300.00 to wash and wax my 42 foot coach.

there are truck washes around . not always in all big cities but truck stops may have one close to you. maybe cheaper then $300 or $9.00 per ft. saw a video on you tube made by the rv geeks seems they paid a lot less then $300.00. if you want to look up there series of videos on you tube and watch it you can get more info on it. I looked it up for you . they went to a place called blue beacon and paid $40 for a 40 ft MH and toad. wash only

Years ago I owned and operated an auto detail shop, trust me when I say just because you have clear coat doesn't mean you don't need wax too.

Yes, clear makes it much easier to maintain and keep a MH looking better, but an occasional coat of wax is a **really** good idea.

we winter in Arizona and my wife doesn't want to help me wash our MH anymore so I get a mobile wash service who wash the coach and the roof. I had some of these people wax my MH and didn't like their work. Since we are in the same place for 3 months I take my time and polish it With Liquid Glass. I also treat my TPO roof and polish my chrome wheels with Mothers wheel polish. If I remember right they charge me about $100 for my 39' MH for the wash job. They have done a great job.:)
