- Passin_ThruExplorerBlue Beacon only uses Acid if you ask, to have aluminum cleaned but it does remove the shine also. Lot's of RV parks know of mobile washers and in Keys you can get portable polishers. They charge by the foot.
- Bill1374ExplorerPulled a business card from the rack in the park we stayed in in Florida. Made an appointment and had the trailer washed in the park. With water restrictions in the park, he came with his own water supply and did me real good. Washed all the way around including the roof. I got to sit, drink my coffee and watch the work get done and the price was quite reasonable.
Bill - Olde_Volks_PlacExplorerNEVER NEVER put the "PINK" liquid on any car or truck or TT as it could be ACID !!! has a STRONG smell and burns eyes
car washes use this to take blk streaks off of any white vehicle or stubborn stains. Truck Washes use it on Tractor Trailers to make them look "beautiful"
YES it works but it ruins finishes and can strip off the clear coat on aluminum rims or paint
smell any product before it is applied to your TT if it smells strong and burns your nose be cautious it could harm your finish!!!
I was in the cleaning business and I know what these places use BE CAREFUL - Jim-LindaExplorer IIBlue Beacon truck washes, they will NOT use high pressure spray if asked.
Jim - Sandia_ManExplorer IIMany car washes may not contain bays large enough for RVs, but we have always managed to find one as needed virtually everywhere we've been. The newer car washes seem to accommodate larger vehicles better, just be careful to not damage your rig's exterior paint, graphics, or caulking with the high pressure sprayer.

- skipncharExplorerWe usually stop at Car Wash places unless we can find an outdoor version or a truck wash. Just be cautious about aiming that high pressure water at caulking because it can "uncalk" your RV pretty easily :E
To use a standard car wash we have to pull in forward until the AC is left outside then back in to get the other half of the RV. - donn0128Explorer IILots of truck stops have car Er truck washes that will fit just about any size trailer.
