RV Wash & Wax in Foley, Alabama

Being my motorhome will be in the Foley, Alabama area for a while I would like to get it washed and waxed.

Any recommendations are appreciated?

I don't know of any. You might check at a couple Campgrounds/RV Parks, they may know of someone. There is an RV repair/parts shop in Foley that might also know of someone.

I talked to two persons today that was washing some units in the park I am in. One was using a rough bristle brush, so I did not want him. The other one was using the same type of wool pads that I have, so he will be the one to do ours.

What park are you in? Let us know if he does a good wash/wax job & is reasonable. I'll be in that neck of the woods around Labor Day.

I am at the Lake Osprey RV Resort in Elberta. This guy has done two motorhomes while we have been here. For my short 33' model he wants $200 to wash and wax the motorhome which includes cleaning the roof and putting 303 on it. He is to wash the car also.

Great - we should be here. Look for the short Tiffin at the big oak tree.

Hopefully it will still be shiny and clean when you are here.

Edit: The LSU flag will be flying in the front!!

$200 sounds good; especially if it's his wax and equipment (buffer). If he doesn't work out, there are some boat places on 98 and they all know somebody that details boats and that's a very similar process.

Remember mine is only 33' long. He quoted me $275 at first until he actually looked at it. I don't believe he uses a buffer.

The DW said that was well worth it being I don't have to take the the chance to see if I would bounce if I happen to fall off the roof.

What happened? Can't log into the Tiffin Network. Guess they don't like Monaco's.
