It’s fun to ride an RV to different destinations across the country. However, it takes a lot of maintenance to keep it running and ensure it stays clean. You want to detail it regularly to keep it in optimal condition. Here are some tips for mobile RV detailing.
Start Early
If you plan on doing some mobile RV detailing, hire someone to get there early. You might want to hire an independent service that doesn’t mind doing a job at around 7 or 8 am. You want the job done before the sun has a chance to heat up.
One of the worst things to happen is that you have hot sun, and you’re in the middle of detailing the exterior. The cleaning solution can dry up, or water spots may start forming on different parts of your vehicle.
When this happens, it can cause long-term damage to the paint. Also, you want to keep the engine cool while you clean and wax the vehicle. Take time to get your RV together.
Pick Someone Who Does a Clean Job
When you don’t have time to detail things yourself, you want to choose an expert who makes sure to do a quality job.
One of the first things to do is clean out the water system. Before you deep wash your interior, drain the water heater. A professional knows that a few drops of bleach and some freshwater can help cleanse the inside 12 hours before they do the detailing.
You want them to be thorough in how they approach your vehicle. Also, you might want someone that’s more eco-friendly and takes a more resourceful approach to avoid using many resources.
The cleaner your vehicle feels, the better it is to drive no matter where you go across the country.
Get Quality Materials
Taking care of your RV is a huge responsibility. It’s not like driving a car because an RV is a mobile home.
Here are some tools you need to help clean the interior and exterior:
- Towels for drying
- Wax
- Sponges
- Glass and wheel cleaner
- Garden hose
- Rubber gloves
It’s good to label everything to avoid using the wrong item. Also, have all of your items in one place to make them better for storing to help you get to them quickly when you need to detail the RV.
Use these strategies to help you clean your RV and keep it as your traveling vehicle.
