I have found 'Onedrywash' brilliant - no water needed at all.  Spray on, wipe off with one cloth, polish with the other cloth.  Then you'll do the rest of the van.   I once demonstrated it to a friend, on a site when we were away for a weekend.  He was astounded at the simplicity of it.  I reckon everyone who saw it went away and bought some.  (P.S. I don't work for the company. etc.)

We use a product called G-clean. I buy it here www.autoday.co.uk/searchresults.php?search=G-clean It's brilliant & will clean anything. It's concentrated & you dilute it to suit the job it's intended for at the time. It's much cheaper than other products I've used.

Fenwicks Black streak remover,and bobby dazler to polish up

Dont buy the above !!!!!!!

Buy the bottle of fenwicks caravan cleaner it is the same stuff as above but not  in a spray bottle.

After you have washed the van Incuding the ROOF  Polish with Autoglym super resin polish then finsh with autoglym Extra gloss protection.DO NOT FORGET to POLISH the ROOF also

I will Guarantee you that you will NOT get any more black streaks or if you do they will wash off very very easy with a "Normal wash" also when the van is parked at home or storage have the van so the water runs off at the back.

After you have done all this work next time you wash the van use autoglyms car wash shampoo or turtlewax shampoo so it does not take all the polish back which i think fenwicks will do and i am NOT willing to find out after all the work i have done on our van and car.

Polish the van twice a year and the car gets it 3 -4 times a year.

GT60........ sounds a job well done to me. I'll drop my GT60 off when it's convenient for you, I don't want to put you out!! You can do it at your leisure.

We polished our Peggy from new with "muc-off", lovely shine, black streaks just wash off. Must do the roof sometime as they are strong enough to go on!

We're on site at the moment in Devon and I was using a baby wet-wipe to wipe my hands and gave the black streaks a quick rub with one and it was amazing, they came off easy as anything! Give it a try, you might be pleasantly surprised.

the answer to black streaks , is when you clean the caravan is to clean the roof , and you will hardly ever have black streaks

Awning rail drip strip, just slide it into the awning channel. Hubby did that last year and not had a problem since!
