45 feet of cleaning fun

[sal329]

I was called last night asking if I could wash another RV. This RV is owned by the RV shops customer from England, they come over here a few times a year and pick up the RV and cruise around. It just had a radiator put in and was sitting in storage, it was not bad very dusty and had black streaks all over. The shop opend at 8 and I was told they needed this done no later then 2pm, which was great for me I had an interview at 2, I needed be out by 12:30 to be home and shower lol. Last 2 RV's I did took me 4 hours each. 8am I arrived, then found out they need to move the RV, 45 minutes later the RV was ready for me to work on it. I have no before pics beacause I needed to start ASAP. The front was covered in bugs, this was the longest part of the wash.

Washed the RV with ONR and 1 ounce of FK 1016, to me this adds more gloss I have only used this for washing RV's
Black streaks pre treated with SC Grime Destroyer diluted 1:1
Windows cleaned with Zep Professional glass cleaner
Wheels cleaned with SCGD and ONR
Tires cleaned with MS SGS and ONR
Tires treaked with FK 350
Exhaust tip HUGE lol was cleaned with NXT all metal polish

The RV

Well after a late start I was done at 12:15, as soon as I loaded up my car the customer was there to pick up. I over heard him talking with the shop owner and he was impressed with the wash, he said he could not imagine the aftermath of a detail. Well I had to hurry home for my interview which I was on time for.

Thank you. I like washing them lol. It was kinda of a weird interview. I did have an interview monday in Greensboro went great, recieved a call tues at 11:15 am asking if I could be in by 2pm (2hrs from the house), so I went in to meet with the big boss and now I am praying for the call back to start

Thank you, this one was in pretty good shape, I found that Surf City Grime detroyer works great on the black streaks. I want to try some PB Bold and Bright, I think it would have been great on these tires, they were not very dirty.

How do you dry such a large vehicle? Twenty towels?

Bounty....

Ok corny sorry. I used around 10 towels. I wash with ONR so I wash what I can reach standing on the ladder, one pass with a towel, second pass with a different towel. Get down from the ladder and clean the area directly under the area I just cleaned and dry the same fashion.

If you do several RV's or other large vehicles, it may be worth you effort to invest in a CRSpotless filter so you don't have to dry them off.

Thank you guys. I was going to get a pressure washer and CR spotless if I had more but I am actually moving away from this area and will not have room to store a CR spotless or Pressure washer. Good thing I have done all but one detail since last summer with ONR.
