Hello All,

My fifth wheel left Texas this afternoon to be delivered to me by Monday. Since I don't have a dually yet, it will be parked for awhile. Given the number of hours that it would take from Tx to Vegas, I'm sure it will probably need a good wash. What's your recommendation on getting it washed? If you've done it yourself, please share good products you've used. If you hired someone, please share if they came to your location and how much such service costs.

Thanks!

I use a long handled soft bristle brush and micro fiber cloths

On front cap to loosen all the bugs I place a damp dryer sheet (used ones) over brush and scrub bugs off. The wet dryer sheets loosen bugs right off.

For a dirty awning........
Fully extend it, then with a bleach/water mixture spray both sides of awning down as you roll it up. Then let it sit/soak for 30 mins or so. Then unroll and rinse it off..........done
Is it time for your medication or mine?

Have used a few mobile rv wash services over the yrs.
Different pricing based on different locations.

34' 5th wheel......wash and wax----$200 to $310.

Have done it myself numerous times.
One day to wash/dry
Next full day to wax.
And then 3 days to recoup.....

I use Meguiars or Turtle Wax Liquid Soap and Wax


Thanks! I'll look into the mobile rv wash. It will probably take me forever to do it myself. Plus, I'm vertically challenged. Lol. What kind of rags do you use? Similar to what you'll use on a car?
