Washing the roof

Coachmen owners manual states that IF you have a factory installed ladder, or a roof rack, You have a fully walk on roof. AS I have neither, I'm guessing I don't have a walk on roof. So I washed the roof today standing on a ladder, using a extended handle brush. Took several ladder moves, But it is done.
Now to treat the roof. Recon, I'll have to do it the same way

I wash my TT roof and body after every trip without fail .
I use one of those 9x3 soft brushes on a 6 foot steeek .
I lay down a stripe of Palmolive on the brush face and clean a section , then rinse .
I walk all over that roof .
And I have a 5 gallon pail of HOT water up there to rinse the brush .


but not all TT have full walk on roofs. According to the book. Mine does not. But I will check

I'll call the dealer, or Coachmen. The book says, If I need to go up there to lay down boards to stand on. To distribute my weight. But I'll still call

You have to do what makes you feel right.

I leave my roof alone. Why should I be messing around with it?

The warantee is beyond my usage span.


I wonder if the warrantee is contingent on proper care.
