How to Deep CLEAN Your Pop Up Camper Canvas & Vinyl (Inside & Out) in Under 10 Minutes!

This video details how to clean your pop up camper “canvas” both inside and out. This video details the distinction between both the canvas material and the vinyl material colloquially referred to as a pop up camper canvas. With the distinction made there are differences with regard to cleaning each material. Vinyl is cleaned utilizing a combination of diluted degreaser along with magic eraser sponges. Vinyl is then rejuvenated and protected utilizing a product called Protect All. This same method can also be utilized for cleaning the vinyl pop up camper windows. With regard to canvas material, if called for, a mold and mildew remover can be utilized to remove the former and later in addition to numerous other stains. However, if a mold and mildew remover is utilized on canvas, it strips the waterproofing and therefore a waterproofing agent should be utilized following usage. In contrast, if mold and mildew remover is utilized on the inside of vinyl, a waterproofing agent should not need to be utilized as vinyl is inherently waterproof.

Thanks for your video and time! I had to clean mold off the entire inside/outside of my newly bought (used) Jayco. The inside was covered with mold. The rest of the Jayco is like brand new. The two tables were like brand new but both were warped so bad they are unusable. I think the previous owner must have only used their new Popup trailer a couple times and then stored it outside for a few winters. Got it at an auction for $400.00. It is complete like just off the showroom floor. So the moral of this story is to store a Popup in some kind of enclosed, dry building in the winter if you live in the PNW. Or use and service a lot of those moisture absorbent pillows. It was a major pain in the ^%$^%$& to get the mold off inside. I store it inside my barn and next winter will be the first test to see how it does in there.

I don't have any leaks there but I want to be sure I don't get any. What would you use to go over them? I'm thinking of using the clear waterproof gorilla tape but looking for any kind of direction. My camper is a 96 and I'm learning as I go. I would like to get another year or so out of the canvas/vinyl if possible. Thank you.

Hey Poppin' Family! new to the channel and new to the pop up life after being avid back packers. We bought a 2002 Rockwood Freedom, and the interior of the roof on our bunk ends has quite a bad stain from the roof vent being against it in the closed position. It appears that the previous owner has tried to clean it, and there are little "fluff balls" on the fabric, like tuffed up material. What is a good way to remove these safely? Razor? Also, the stains seem to be IN the fibers of the material. Soft fabric on the inside and vinyl on the outside. Should I try an activated Hydogen peroxide first? And do i need to use Microfibre cloths to prevent that "balling" up of the soft side? Any tips would help

@ItsPoppin 3 жыл бұрын

Definatley try the mold and mildew remover for the canvas. As far as the mattress and cushions, are the covers removable? If so you may be able to wash them in the washer. There are also some tricks for cleaning the foam of the cushions/mattresses themselves, but we've never done that - Google may be your best bet for that.

We've just had a lot of rain and the vinyl on our pop up is wet on the inside. Should we apply a waterproofing product. I had applied last fall a uv protectant but obviously something's gone wrong. I will definitely have to waterproof the canvas. I cleaned the vinyl with a decreasing product. I never though vinyl would get wet like the canvas. Any thoughts.

@ItsPoppin 2 жыл бұрын

My initial thought is that it’s actually condensation. If you’re cooking, running hot water, showering, or even existing in your pop up and it’s sealed up tight against the rain, you’ll run into condensation. There’s a few ways to combat it. If you have an A/C that will help. Otherwise cracking a window or vent along with fans and/or water absorbers will help. The name brand is damprid but you can buy cheap ones from Dollar Tree.

Yes, it goes away - it just needs to air out for a while. I prefer to apply inside with the bunk ends zipped down so the screen isn’t in the way. Definitely remove the mattresses to prevent any waterproofing from getting on them.

We used the mold and mildew remover as well, which helped alot, however, it left an almost pink colored spot behind. We didn't find anything to completely remove it and just lived with it.

@@ItsPoppin Okay so my mom brought up a good point. She asked if I waterproof the canvas that is opposite to vinyl on the outside. For example- windows are not covered by vinyl on outside so they need water proofed. But what about the roof of the bed area that has vinyl on the outside? She is wondering how that could possibly dry cause it would be moisture trapped between the canvas and vinyl. Also for saturating the canvas covering the screened windows - do I saturate it from the inside out or outside in?

Can or should you use a water hose or pressure washer on the canvas exterior?

@ItsPoppin 3 жыл бұрын

I would forgo the pressure washer. I'm sure you could get away with a water hose.

@@ItsPoppin that's kinda what I was leaning toward. Eventually though the pressure washer is electric and not that powerful. Thanks

Protect all is a man made synthetic product. In the long run, it will dry out the vinyl. I use platasizers only. .

Isn’t the mildew remover just sodium hydrochloride? The same thing as bleach? I recently bought a gallon of “miracle mist mildew cleaner”, for $18 at Walmart. Once I started using it it smelled exactly like bleach and the ingredients said “contains sodium hydrochloride”. I think I paid for a bottle of bleach for nine times what it should’ve cost.

You made it seem as if your cleaning the canvas but then kept referring to the vinyl. So this sort of just confused me even more.

Historically, we used protect all, however its a bit harder to find these days. We've been trying out some products from chemical guys, one of which was VRP and it worked well.
