Useless Facts/Chit Chat Thread

It snowed here last night, about 2 inches last night. I hope it warms up/dries up enough to get into the camper to do packing and trip prep, I dont want to have to lay in the snow to check the brakes and bearings. I also need it to dry out so I can wash the trailer and put on the really cool musket mickeys that I got.

I also need to wash the awning, I only have had it out 1 time since we bought it, it was FILTHY. The previous owner only used it occasionaly, and it was parked at a campground and never towed, so it looks like the awning was just left out. Does anyone have any hints or tips on cleaning one?

Just wondering

Pressure washer may be worth renting for that. Maybe a little bleach in the mix.

John,
We've tried many many products....and the best one I found to take staining off the awning is Target brand "Cleaner with bleach". Man, that stuff works great!! (also great for around the house). Just spray on and rinse well. It's cheap and by far works better than many other products I've used! Good Luck!

I actually own 2 pressure washers, the problem is that the water will freeze LOL.

I will get some of the target cleaner with bleach. For our old trailer, it had alum. sides, I used wesley's bleach white for the black streaks, etc. It worked 10x better than anything you could buy and a camper store. But that stuff is way to strong for fiberglass sides, it would prob melt the gelcoat.

Maybe I will get some of that target stuff and use one of those Swiffer things (mop pad on a stick) and try to clean it.

Thanks guys.

How about camping quotes? Like when someone on the boards here has a great camping tip, or good one liners associated with camping, or just general knowledge that would work as a simple quote, maybe a page devoted to something like that?

 

[RvUsa]

I have a just for fun page, and a fort wilderness page, maybe on one of them.
