Hey everyone!
Welcome to our latest video - another #caravanningtips special :)
The time has come for me to attempt to clean our roof. I’ve never properly done this in the time we’ve owned the caravan so it definitely needs doing! Do I make a success of it?? Am I happy with the result?? Let’s take a look!
Hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for watching!

Every experience counts! Allows viewers opportunity to figure out what works and what doesn’t? That was a great first attempt after 2 years 🥰 so well done - you deserved your beer!

Haha good job guys. Your not alone, I for the first time attempted to clean our roof for the first time. It was that bad it became a massive job. It's better than it was, that's all I am saying. Will have to have another go soon. Ian...

Although you say you weren't totally happy with the end result it was a huge improvement. I've noticed in your videos that the beemer always looks in fine fettle and I think there's a lot of products from the car detailing world that could be of use for your caravan. Maybe a snow foam as a pre wash (to soak into the grime and soften /loosen it prior to a contactless rinse). After washing some sort of sealant like gyeon wet coat or similar. Just some suggestions, keep up the vids, I'm enjoying watching you guys 👍

Good video. One tip I would give is to put the jockey right up before you clean to let the water run off the back. Then scrub from front to back 👍

Nice one Aron. I have to say our caravan has had Paintseal applied so the roof doesn’t get mucky. But Grandma’s caravan has been sat under a tree for 9months and is covered in everything... after the last video I made about cleaning it! I will DM you in a minute. Cheers Oliver

Hi Aaron.. loved the video, it’s a job I hate but I found the Kampa long reach microfibre brush and it makes it so much easier and quicker as you can do the whole van roof with only two moves of the ladder. It’s also quite flat so if you open the roof vents you can clean much more. I also spray it with Fenwicks Bobby Dazzler after it’s cleaned as I find its easier to clean the next time...

A job that is challenging even when new - our Coachman has been back to the dealer for a valet because it was rubbish on handover, and the roof is still not good enough for a new ‘van! One area you didn’t cover, and which annoys me on ours, is the area around and under the roof vents and skylights (?) - easy enough on the biggy I suppose, but how the flip does one tackle the ickle ones? Anyway, great video Aaron and kudos for showing us some stark reality that we all probably shy away from! Important point though, at least keep the solar panel cleaned regularly... 👍🏻 😉 ✅

I thought it looked canny. We got a new to us van and they had done sides and some of the roof. Parts of it are still quite dirty. I need a new ladder to sort those parts out. The back of the van we filthy because those parts on the roof weren't clean enough. Soon winter so might clean it just before goes into winter seaason.

Hey Thomas, I’d get an extendable wash brush. Spray it with cleaner using the garden sprayers if you have them, then dip the brush in bucket with cleaning soap or Fenwicks in, then give it a good clean 👍
