I first soaped the whole coach up with a pressure washer that sucks up the soap as it pumps the water, then raised. That still doews not get the really stuck on stuff off.
I used to drive gas tankers (22 wheel) and always liked a clean truck and came across this magic wand.
It works really well, but the side effect is you get soaked.
Yep, that is me playing in the water in forty degree weather.
It does do a nice job, here it is dry.
Yes I paid special attention to the wheel wells and the chassis
