slackercruster Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 The white grab handle where I go up the steps is mildewed. The lights have white plastic around them that is mildewed. What is good to clean the plastic with? Or does plastic last longer if it is left alone with the plasticizers as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray,IN Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Next time you wash your RV, add a few oz bleach to your 5G bucket of soapy water. The after-effect is just short of amazing, it removes mold/mildew from everything you wash with the solution. Remember to rinse thoroughly, many older awning are sewed with cotton thread, prolonged exposure to bleach can damage the thread. afterthought; DO NOT use Westleys bleach-wite whitewall tire cleaner to clean plastic! I did once, it etched the plastic where it was sun-worn into a grainy surface, which got dirtier much-much faster. Sure it made yellowed plastic white again-but____. 2000 Winnebago Ultimate Freedom USQ40JD, ISC 8.3 Cummins 350, Spartan MM Chassis. USA IN 1SG retired;Good Sam Life member,FMCA ."

jerryneal Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 Clorox wipes or the generic version. Gives a rough cleaning surface to get the crud out and a little bleach to keep it from returning.
