Swifter floor cleaner for cleaning vinyl awnings

Wanted to share. Used a basic Swifter floor cleaner with a 4' handle to clean the underside of our trailer awning. Figured since it is safe for vinyl flooring, using it on the awning would work as well. The results were excellent. Bright finish in half the time, no mess and saved doing it by hand with a ladder.

    Much easier to use Tilex Mold & Mildew Spray

    Fully extend awning
    Then spray the top of awning along length of roller as someone SLOWLY retracts awning

    When fully retracted sit back, enjoy a cold beverage, read a magazine or whittle on a stick.

    After 30 minutes or so fully extend awning and rinse down top/bottom.

    Clean...done......no scrubbing/no elbow grease....just a little hand motion (trigger finger) and NO LADDER required (Or drips on you/clothes)

    (Wet top makes contact with underside as it is rolled up)
