Help! How do I clean the mildew from under the awning when I cannot apply any pressure to it?
Thanks

My wife will make up a cleaning solution and spray it on the underside and roll up awning and let sit for 15 minutes or so. Open awning and rinse with water, and repeat a few times if necessary. She uses a brush on the stubborn spots. You can google to find diy cleaning solutions. Not positive but I thing she uses dawn dish soap, water and some bleach.

Thank you -- I will try that. I also have purchased a garden sprayer that I am going to pour "Miracle Mist" into. That product I know works really well so I will see if that process will work. It's 10 Feet tall so trying to brush it is very difficult. And using a continuous sprayer hopefully does the job vs having to manually pump a trigger to apply.

I try to make sure the awning is dry before rolling it in or dry it when we get home. Bugs seen to be attracted to our white underside and get encased during the nightly roll up. I've used this on the house shingles to remove the stain streaks. As it says, wet and forget. Sometime later you realize the stains are gone. Sold at Lowes, Walmart, and others. www.wetandforget.com/wet-and-forget-products.html |

I used "Awesome" from Big Lots, Family Dollar, Lowe's, Dollar Tree for $1.25 spray bottle.Rinse your awning, spray on "Awesome", let it sit for about 10 minutes, usually when done spraying you get start at the end of awning where you started spraying and use a soft garage floor push broom. Make sure it's a soft bristle push broom. go up and down on awning. When done scrubbing rinse off with water. You can do the top side too.

ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS ISSUE:
2020 343VIK Touring -- Vehicle was stored in Houston area last 1 1/2 Years. Check and charged several times. When I connected the battery this week there is a steady alarm ringing from what seems like the IRV Panel in the bathroom. I have it connected to 50 AMP power now and it still stays ringing. I opened it up and disconnected the 2 wires and of course it stopped. I have the Carbon monoxide and propane alarm off on the other side of the wall. Any thoughts on what that alarm is? Thank you, RG
