Walking on the roof of a 2013 Bullet Premier

Is it safe? Noticed after several big rains, we have black spots on the roof. Ewwwww! Also, what do you guys use to clean a rubber roof?

Thanks!
  • I have walked on mine. I am about 175 lbs. I can hear a bit of creaking so I would try to put my weight where the roof trusses are. But, when I clean the roof, I do it from an A-frame ladder and a long car wash brush.
    I use the rubber roof cleaner usually, but once in awhile I have used Simple Green when I ran out of the roof cleaner.

  • I wouldn't, feels too soft between trusses to me. I will walk around the edges but that's it. I use a long handle car wash brush to reach the centre. I wet the roof and then use Comet powder sprinkled on. Works great.
  • Thanks so much! Tall ladder it is. I have Simple Green and will be in search of the other. Happy and safe travels....
  • I always work off a ladder when working on the roof. Even if you can, I am a little larger than average... I use Dawn dishwashing liquid at times.
  • My Premier isn't a walkable roof, but I've gotten up there a couple times. One tip is to use a piece of plywood to spread out your weight. Mine is also TPO and not Rubber. I haven't had to clean mine other than spraying it with water thus far, but I'd be careful about using rubber roof cleaner if you don't have a rubber roof. Not sure if your Premier has the same TPO roof as mine, but just wanted to make a note of it in case.
