    I have used Fenwicks and it is an excellent product but have also used the dealer's own brand but if pushed I couldn't really tell how much better Fenwicks is, but certainly it is.

    The problem is that the caravan (or MH) is out in the open and it looks good when it's just been done but after a week or two in winter…

    I used to bring it home and wash it myself but the storage place has its own cleaning staff so I get it washed before each trip, of course it always rains or there's mud on the roads on the way!

    I too use Fenwick's Caravan Cleaner and then go over it with Fenwick's Bobby Dazzler which I think helps cleaning the next time round.

    Aldi used to sell a very good black streak remover, not sure if it’s still available though. Fenwicks here as well

    I have never needed anything special as my first caravans were garage stored for 19 years and after this have been under cover for 6 years. I treat them like the car with any branded car shampoo. Stubborn/oil/tar marks wipe off with some white spirit. The caravan then I either apply car polish/wax or Bobby Dazzler.

    And I received a delivery of the Jennychem cleaner and polish, yesterday - so I'll report how that does. I'm hoping it will sort the caravan roof out, which hasn't been touched for a year and is looking a bit grim! As @Briang says, just have to wait for it to stop raining🙄
