5 Easy Steps to Clean Caravan Annexes
Step 1: Set Up to Expose the Entire Material
You cannot clean it while it is folded up.
The only way to clean an awning is to set it up properly.
The awnings are made waterproof, so it is very important for the water or other fluids to be dried off and wiped clean.
The heat from the sun will help the water / fluid(s) to dry up quickly.
Step 2: Remove That Grime Before It’s Too Late
Grime is the mixture of dirt, debris, bird droppings and other stuff that usually settles atop awnings.
If the grime sets, then it could damage the material and waterproofing feature.
The best approach would be to clean off any grime which makes the awning look dirty.
A soft cloth and some water can do wonders.
Awnings are primarily made from canvas and this makes it waterproof.
Soft cloth and water are the two things that would not affect the waterproofing ability of the material in any manner.
Make sure to use a light hand as aggressive strokes could also damage the materials.
Step 3: Water + Soft Cloth = Easy Cleaning Tools
There are many standard issue awning cleaners out there in the market.
You may also try the Camco RV Awning cleaner from Australia Wide Annexes.
This will give you the much required boost to the cleaning process without compromising the effectiveness of the waterproofing of the awning’s material.
Step 4: Use Standard Issue Awning Cleaners
If the awning is excessively dirty with a lot of grime accumulation, use a cap of bleach mixed in warm water for getting off all dirt.
The cleaning fluids can be a life saver but it strips some waterproofing from the materials so before monsoon sets in, you would have to reapply water resistive coating to it.
