Back to the pressure washer....I'll meet you halfway on this. I think most folks are of the thought that you can just blast off the bugs and grunge and have it done quick and easy. That's where the huge mistake comes in, IMHO....
And there you have it. These are the same folks who believe in "touchless" car washes. I go on record here (as one who loves to wash his cars, RVs, etc.) - there is NO substitute for mechanical contact (read "touching the surface") to remove grime. Even if you use only a power washer (no touching) and stay far enough away to not strip the paint you'll have wasted your time because as soon as the surface dries the dirt comes back.

Guess we do have the luxury at home of having a covered area where Rocky lives 24/7, but also a long driveway and we just hook up and pull forward. A bucket of Turtle Wax Car Wash or whatever and a long handled soft brush + a car wash mitt and garden hose and we're good.
Oh how I envy that. :(
