Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
I not sure how to word this but I have a new trailer with siding panels and i find that after you wash the trailer go camping for a weekend or just keep it parked in the yard that on both front sides were the seems are on the siding after a few days there is like black stains or soot it seems to wipe off but keeps coming back in the same two spots about a foot long down the seems on both side. If some can tell me what it is or were its coming from and what I can do to stop this from happening. it`s not dust or dirt I don`t think its black more like graphite. I would love to hear some answers thanks!!
It is dirt & soot that is being grabbed by the sealant used to seal the seams. You might try cleaning really well with an industrial cleaner to remove the sealant residue and then use a really good car wax to go over the seam. The wax may keep the residue at bay so the seams will stay clean for longer.
