Ok to use marine wash/wax soap on fiberglass tt?

Might be a dumb question but is it ok to clean our TT with h a Starbrite marine wash wax?
  • Wet the trailer wall use a little bleach water or your cleaner, roll the awning up and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Open it up and you can repeat or use a brush and lightly scrub it.

    Yes on boat wax.
    Buy a one gallon sprayer and use Clorox clean up or a 1/4 bleach and water. Set the awning as low as possible, spray top and under side, let sit 15 minutes. If you get some on the body just rinse it off as soon as possible.
    Rinse off with a lot of water, rinse the awning tube well.
  • I've used Meguiar premium boat wax for years with great results. Wax right over the decals also. Seems to last a long time

  • I use Clorox Kitchen Cleaner and rinse it off as fast as I apply it. Kills Mildew.
  • Thank you guys I just wanted to make sure! Do you guys have any suggestions on how to clean mold and Mildred from and awning? Top and underneath. I bought awning cleaner but have not used yet.
  • Yes-I use Marine wash and wax products on my Fiberglass Exterior Toy Hauler. A few tips, Always wash and wax in the shade, make sure the surface is cool so hose down in the shade. I now use a non scratching mop in bucket and it goes real fast. I also use soft water, what a difference.
