Clean The Top and Not Mess Up The Paint

I need to clean the top of the coach. Even though it is stored indoors, the top has accumulated a fair amount of crud. When I cleaned the white roof on our old Pop Up, I just used Simple Green and a scrub brush. I know Simple Green will get it clean, but I don't want to have adverse affects on the paint.

What do you use to clean the top of your coach? I also have an 1,800 PSI Pressure Washer, but I think that would be overkill and could cause damage. I plan on sticking with a garden hose and sprayer.

Thanks in advance.

I use the same auto soap as the sides. Adding a little bleach helps if mold\mildew is present.

I used car soap, a sponge, a scrub brush for tuff areas, and a foam knee pad . Created as little mess as possible but did a great job.
