black streaks

I've just discovered that simple green works the best! I was using the Camco black streak remover but ran out. I didn't want to run out to the store so I sprayed sg on it followed by just washing (no waiting). I was amazed how well it worked!

Many swear by Amazing Orange stuff at the dollar stores. I have used it on many things and it works well.

Get yourself some of the little gutters, that keep the roof runoff off of the sides of the 5er.

LOL. They only work half heartidly at best. Awsom from dollar stores works well. But wax after.

I have had excellent success with Simple Green 'Automotive'.

Demco Black Streak remover works good for me. The areas that streak the most I put extra wax on. I hear that magic erasers work to. Good luck

x2 on the simple green followed by washing. works great. works well on rims too.

I might not be posting this in the proper place, if not, I apologize. I have tried several products when washing my fw, however have had very little success removing streaks. I have fiberglass sides on my 04 hr savoy. I try to keep it spotless, but nothing I have tried works. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Forget all the over the counter house cleaners. They don't work and can harm RV gelcoat finishes.

They make an RV cleaner specifically for 'black streaks' on RV's.

IT works period.
And guess what? It's called "RV Black Streak Remover"!!!:B

Can be found at any camping store, rv dealership and even some walmarts.

I'm doing my 5er now. I used the stuff from CW but it did not cut it. I searched the web and saw the above you tube video using LA's Totally Awesome All Purpose Cleaner. It only costs a dollar at Dollar Tree for 32oz. I was skeptical, but it really works. The guy in the video used a scrubby sponge and the cleaner full strength , very little scrubbing, then wiped it with a wet rag. Then he dried it with a clean rag.
