    I use a long handled soft brush to clean both car and caravan. Still a pain but relatively quick and easy even when limited to cold water only on the farm where I store it.

    We find the waterless cleaners available very good.  Not cheap but does what it says on the box.  That and a cover kept our Vanencia looking good for the last two years.  We do not have water often to wash the van so found it the best option by far.

    I am awaiting my Unicorn Cadiz, pickup 5th December. I was concerned about cleaning my lovely big window, as the acrilic windows scratch easy. Go on the Fenwick Cleaner website it tells you what to do with different tips. The cleaner is very good and they
    have a product to go in the rinse water to protect the caravan. I have bought this but haven't tried this yet but looks good on youtube when you see the demonstration.
