Isn't that what the sprayer behind the toilet is for? :B

Wife bought some, with the old small tube and big rolls. It fits our toilet paper holder in the RV now. Charmin she just said.
I take it back on edit. She said it was the last purchase before this Charmin an doesn't remember the name.

That's some thing I never understood, why do they have toilet paper commercials?
Is there some one out there that doesn't use it?

We use the same T.P. in our RV that we use in our stickbuilt. We have a oscillator in our tanks that cleans the sensors so we don't have a problem using regular T.P.

Enzyme treatments are great if the trailer sits for months between dumps. My trailer toilet is used on occasion between camping trips. When it's sitting is the only time I'll put the enzymes in.

Why leave it without dumping? Are you leaving it someplace as a summer home? I don't think I have ever seen a campground with out a dump station. If I am dry camping not in a campground there are places to dump.

At my house. We take it out once a month or less. It's also a guest house, and I "camp out" in the driveway with the kids on Friday nights, so the toilet is used. When I bring it home, I put the enzymes in. When I dump before taking it camping, the sensors are always clean. Also, I don't get any smells even in the summer, so it works for me.

Yeah, our macerator's guide says not to use anything marked "Ultra".

This thread is actually funny. Folks pay big money for some of these coaches, but are still looking for a way not to buy an enzyme that will break down solids and tissue. Too cheap to buy good toilet tissue that will not break down when wiping yourself. There are some toilet papers that are so thin that as soon as you touch something your fingers will go through. (Yack!) If you can afford a one hundred thousand dollar and higher coach, you should not try to buy cheap toilet paper just to save a few pennies. LOL!

Just does not make sense to me.

They say (I've never tried it), put a sheet of the tissue that you want to use in a glass of water, it if starts to disintegrate, it's OK for your system.

Use regular TP, you'll be fine.

I was bored one night and tried this. We generally use Scott paper at home and had sone rv paper (forget which brand). The Scott disappeared much faster than the more expensive rv paper and it is much cheaper.

I tested Scott also and it is RV safe so we use it. Available at Costco in a gozillion pack. However we still don't love it enough to use at home.

Also, I think another reason for using toilet tissue that breaks down is for coaches that have a macerator.
