RV Wash & Wax Mobile Service Question?

What do I need to look for in choosing and ask? I found a mobile service nationaldetailpros.com. Has any one used this company?

I would want to see what cleaners and wax they use. I saw a guy one time mixing 3 things in a spray bottle and one was bug cleaner. I wanted to tell Rv owner he was getting ripped off but he hired him.

Just wondering why the guy was getting ripped off? Perhaps the bug cleaner mixture was going to be used for just that purpose or to remove other dirt or road grime from different areas of the coach? Most cleaners fall into only a couple of catagory's and many detailer have discovered very effective ways to handle certain situations with certain products or combination of products and it's usually the guys with the most experience.

If you attend an RV Rally there are usually people there who will clean the coach. From what I have seen they do a decent job. Have not used national but they appear to be somewhat expensive.

The only time we have had our coach professionally cleaned the referral came from right here at irv2.
We were staying at the Anaheim rv park and 2 people posted about the great wash they got there.
They were right, we were very pleased.

So IF there is any way to get personal exp that would be a great help in my opinion.

Word of mouth is probably the best way to find someone to do the job. Just had our coach hand washed and polished yesterday. The guy worked from 8am to 4:30 pretty much non stop. Used a random orbital polisher and a product called Allbrite. Results were pretty good all in all. Cost me $300 which I thought was reasonable considering how long it tool.

He mixed bug cleaner, waterless car wash, liquid wax in the same spray bottle. He sprayed it on wiped it off and was done. Some people might think that's right but I don't.
