Hello
Being complete novices we failed to take any precautions last winter leaving the caravan in winter storage, as a result two small areas of damp have occurred one at the rear near side where an intermediate rail is following the line of the rail for about a foot and one under the offside front window.It looks like the van has been resealed along the awning rail some years ago and this is now looking a bit tatty.
I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to get a cover for the forthcoming winter or would a straight forward replacement of sealant around rails and windows subject to good weather be a better bet.
We have also been advised by helpful more experienced caravanners to leave the fridge door open,fill the sinks with bleach water solution,hang tights up containing cat litter to absorb condensation.We have also been advised to put shake and vac on the carpets before leaving.
Has anyone used a cover or any of these tips with success
Many thanks
Jim
