I have been using Protect All's Quick & Easy. It works pretty good - no spots and gets the grime off.

I hate to admit it, but the ones found in the dealerships made especially for RV's work the best. Don't know what secret ingredient is in them, but they get the job done without spots and they get the usual stuff that sticks to MH's clean off.
I don't use regular car wash soap anymore.

The Mr Clean AutoDry Car Wash system does a good job for me. I just have to remember to change the filter about every other month. I try to wash the MH weekly.

I have had numerous trailers and now a motorhome and have always used Murphys oil soap. It's inexpensive at walmart and cleans the black streaks and everything else and leaves a great shine. I would recommend nothing else. It's also great on the tpo or rubber roofs. Denny

I also use the Mr Clean Auto Dry Car Wash System. Instead of using their expensive soap I use McGuires NXT Next Generation Car Wash Concentrate mixed 50-50 with water in the soap dispenser. It comes in two quart bottles and works just as well and is much cheaper. It comes out just as spot free as with their soap.

I just use Turtle Wax Zip Wax car wash detergent as it sheets down and doesn't leave any spots or streaks! I wax with Nu Finish! Bagman.

I use Blue Coral Wash and Wax. A half gallon of concentrate at Wally World is less than $5. I've used it on MH's, Boats, autos, my new Silverado. It does a great job washing and leaves a great shine and all you do is wash the vehicle normally. If there are dirty areas you need to scrub a little.
Nobody should use the old style wax anymore, the 50's are dead!
