Its been advised NOT to use on rubber roofs : Petroleum distillates are hydrocarbon solvents produced from crude oil. These solvents include mineral spirits, kerosene, white spirits, naphtha, and Stoddard solvent. Petroleum distillates are good for removal of heavy oil and grease, tar, and waxes.

I read that exact article, thanks ;)

What did you use to clean the roof? Was it just a cleaner or also conditioner?

How old was your roof?

I'm not sure about the Murphy's Oil Soap suggested in the article? We thought it a bit odd suggestion, didn't you? We've used that indoors on wood with good results.

After the roof, we're planning on a full wash and then some kind of wax. I use a cleaner wax on my vehicle, maybe the same for the camper?

I've read automotive wax is good for the fiberglass, but also read about marine gelcoat stuff?

Whatever we finally use, it's good to take care of the roof first, otherwise the runoff could strip the wax we just put on :E

I'm going to have to setup a place to host pics....

Thanks ;)
