I had him wash my Class C last year. It looked wonderful after he finished.
If you're going to be on the North Olympic Peninsula, say between Port Townsend and Port Angeles and want his number, PM me and I'll be happy to provide his business contact information to you.

I thought that we should use some kind of conditioner once a year on a rubber roof. So I don't have to do that? That'd be great.
Anyway, if I buy an electric pressure washer it's around US$150. If one wash is US$85 it should pay for itself, right?
Rubber roof: Maybe but the wrong stuff could be worse than nothing. Find out who MAKES the roof and ask them; then take their advice.
Pressure washer:
Just pressure alone won't really do a good job. And too much pressure on the wrong places can break seals and cause damage. The truck washes use mostly brushes and STRONG soap solution that you can't usually find. Of course an electric pressure washer is useful for other things too.

When someone tells you to buy the same rig they own, listen, they might be right. When they tell you to buy a different rig then they own, really pay attention, they probably know something you don't.

No way I would pressure wash a rubber roof - wouldn't buy a rig from someone who did.
agree, pressure washing a rubber roof is not a good idea.
it's a good way to start a leak.

Edit: Roy&Lynne, thanks for the offer! We're actually going East, sometimes North.

Search for a semi-truck wash in your area. They usually do RVs too.
I think a "large" goes for about $85 in my area.
And before you pay anybody to "condition" the roof, tell us what kind of roof it has. That sounds like a scam to me.
Or you can DIY at a vehicle wash with a semi-tuck bay (and built in walkway). I use the one in Belfair. But I know there are others in the region
