MobileJoy Posted March 4 Posted March 4 The age thing is definitely overrated... We had ours done 18 months ago. We used to wax, but after a long trip cleaning the Mojo took considerable elbow grease. We returned from a long trip in 10/24 and the Mojo hadn't been washed in over 2 months. It cleaned up easily. Black drip stains wiped away with almost no effort. Even bugs were easier to remove. It looks better than new. So I'd say it is definitely worth the money given the cleaning and waxing time saved, and the appearance of the cleaned fiberglass. Ours is garaged and we use RockTamers.

Of course, a really attentive person or crew doing the work for you could tell you everything they found, but seeing, touching, feeling everything for one’s self is huge for a DIYer. Last trip on top of the Oliver was to do a detail wash after being up there to rescue the bolts that had vibrated out of the fan motor on the Dometic A/C. (That unit is SO loud and obnoxious that it needs a nickname - like the “Vultee Vibrator” or the “Piper Traumahawk”) That little exercise got me familiar with the crud buildup by the awning brackets, weatherproofing around the various gadgets attached to the roof, and an as yet unexplained stain on the roof caused by something leaking of that dang A/C. Even from inside, I can see the MaxxFan needs to come OFF the roof to detail clean the inside of the translucent dome. I thought I was being anal when I removed the fan blade for a proper wash rather than just a quick wipe-down. We use the fan A LOT (probably because the damn A/C is so freaking loud - have I mentioned that before? 😋 ) so dirt, dust, cat hair, etc build up on the fan parts and can’t be cleaned thoroughly from inside. We don’t even cook much inside, but something being drawn out of that fan is acting as an adhesive to hold that dirt. Anyway, here’s to getting intimate with our trailers…. Oh, and I can’t find the bottle at the moment, but I’m using some expensive, highly-recommended milky-looking spray on the front of the trailer and TV to help the gozillion “love bugs” - that completely coat the front of vehicles driving through Louisiana - slide off as opposed to needing sandpaper to remove them. 2022 Oliver Legacy Elite II Hull #1029 King Bed Floorplan electronics package Truma Aqua-Go LOUD Dometic Penguin A/C LevelMate Pro+ TV - 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali, 3.0l Duramax Diesel, Crew Cab 4WD RealTruck hard tonneau cover Rove R2-4K DashCams Canada: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island
