- Hi Folks. Today I set about Cleaning the Outside of a Very Green and Black Caravan. I set a challenge to Pro-Shot Leisure Makers of Caravan Cleaning products. They are putting some of their cleaning products up against this Green caravan. This Video is not Sponsored and my Opinions are my Own.

Thanks Phil.
Love the drill and brush idea. you have done a cracking job on the outside of that van mate.
Thanks 👍 Ian you are the only one to mention the drill. Thanks Phil🙂👍
Great job Phil !
Very impressed with Pro Shot cleaner - we’ve used the toilet 40 shot for ages.
Look forward to you making as good a job of our van on Tuesday !!
Just returned from a week away in Lytham ( braved worse winds ever !) - van now back in storage waiting for you !! 👍🏻👍🏻
Howard 😁
Hi Howard. You are brave it has been very windy around here lately. Looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday. Will text on Sunday. Take Care Phil.🙂👍
Great video and great job Phil, will definitely be using these products
Thanks Terry. Putting the 15ml in a litre spray bottle is well worth the money on it's own. Thanks Phil🙂👍
Nicely done Phil, I think Desmond would need an awful lot of work, cos we are too busy using the motorhome to clean it ha ha. Take care and love to you both xx
Hi Lindsay. If you are ever passing again, I will happily fit Desmond in. Juliet will make a cake while I am busy. We are both fine. Love to you and David. Phil🙂👍
Hi Phil. Smashing video and what a great job you did on the caravan, especially on the roof - fantastic difference. Impressed by how well the Pro Shop cleaning materials worked. I've never used them before but seem worth a try. As regards the awning channel - we use white awning channel protector strip on both sides of van - it not only keeps the channels themselves clean, but also leads away the raindrops that usually bring down the dirt that ends up in the dreaded black streaks. Really found that a useful thing to do. Thanks for another helpful vid. Cheers. George and Trish.
Hi T&G. It works very well in concentrated form for stubborn marks/staining. Yes we use awning protectors but my Mate hasn't bothered hence the awning rail mess. Thanks and I hope you are both well. Phil🙂👍
not moved my caravan in about 7 years. there is literal moss growing all over it. if i can get mine to this state i will be impressed
Hmm I would use a plastic scraper to remove the moss first. Good luck it will take a while to complete. Thanks Phil
Great video Phil, Pro-Shot stuff seems pretty impressive. Not used before as always used another popular brand. Might give it a try when I make my next purchase.
Hi Mark. It left quite a shine on the van I did. The concentrated version I did works really well on stubborn green and black mould. Ive used all sorts over the years including I am guessing the same you. It's well worth trying. Wait till Part 3 on Sunday (Conclusion) Cheers Phil🙂👍
Great job done there Phil, 👍👍.
Thanks BB. Sorry for delay been away. Phil👍🙂
Hi Phil, great video again and brilliant result. Have to disagree with you about the little awning brush though. You need to feed it into the awning rail as you would your awning, it's a great little tool. Enjoy your time ;))
Thanks Stew. I think the awning brush I'd bought was a little too thick. I'll look for another. Thanks again. Phil 🙂
Trade secrets I can see how you done it now 😂😂 works a treat looks great when finished
Thanks for doing ours it’s all clean ready for me pies and gravy
Hi Gav. I don't give all secrets away. I am glad you like your Van as well. Thanks Phil🙂👍
Breakfast watching Phil work 😂😂
I hope you enjoyed your breakfast and didn't put you off 😂. Thanks Colin, Phil🙂👍
I do the opposite to you and lower the front as my Swift caravan has a joint at the back with a raised trim that causes the water to pool if the back is lower. Something to take into account as construction varies between vans.
Hi Colin I can see that making perfect sense. Sometimes i till them slightly to one side as well. Thanks very much. Phil🙂👍
How many times did you want to touch the caravan at the start😂😂😂😂
Hi I wanted to clean that van many times until I got the go ahead. Just cleaned it again this week. Thanks Phil👍🙂
Hi Phil,
Great video as per.
You are the 'go to place' for caravan information.
I must admit when I see a grubby caravan on the road, I always wonder if it's like that on the outside what's the chance it's up to the neck inside ?
Hi Martin. Thanks I try my best to help as much as possible. I only ask Folk to watch to the end and like the videos. Keep watching. Thanks Phil.👍🙂
Great job thanks for the video. I'm about to clean my caravan on a storage site. How did you find the washing down of the van, was it just a case of pouring buckets over it once you'd eased the green stuff off?
Hi. I have a water tank and water pump. Not a pressure washer. Whale make a 12volt pump that fits an aqua roll. I did a video on it a few years ago. I hope this helps. Phil 🙂
Impressed as I’ve just done mine without using 40 shot
But how did you manage for the height and the reach into the middle of the roof?
Hi Derek. Thanks for watching. I bought a great device which secures my ladder. I clean the roof in two halves. Here is a video I did a while ago on the slip stop. Worth a watch. Thanks Phil.🙂👍 ua-cam.com/video/Yi-m9RVLngc/v-deo.html
TFR and low pressure would clean it up fine - no need for a multitude of cleaners. (exterior only)
Hi Tom. If you are happy cleaning that way then thats fine. You cannot beat good old fashioned hard work but sometimes you need a helping hand. Thanks again Phil👍🙂
How did you not bend any body awning after testing a ladder fully on the eadge?? I would not chance anything like that, did you use pads or something?? Please let me know. But enjoyed video.😃😃
Hi James. Good question. I have an attachment to my ladder that protects the awning rail. and I also add pipe insulation tubing as well. Check this out. Thanks Phil. 👍🙂ua-cam.com/video/Yi-m9RVLngc/v-deo.html
Are there caravan ”car washes?”
Not that I am aware of. Some storage yards have gantries so you can wash the roofs. Not heard of any commercial ones certainly not where I live. Thanks Phil👍🙂
Any concentrated caravan wash will remove black streaks.
Yep Brian it will. I am not saying this a wonder cure but it got rid of the dried in mold and green a lot quicker that other products I have used. I Valet Caravans for a living and as a concentrate this works faster. Thanks Phil🙂👍
Another to thing I tried the other day was dove liquid hand soap to removes black steaks it also cleanes
A little disappointed as you don’t actually show the cleaning process. You go from extreme to clean with no in between.
Hi Phillip. The main reason is the recording it. My Camera cost £1000 and I didn't want risk breaking it or getting water inside. I will be doing a few more videos about it this year. They may help. Thanks Phil👍🙂
