Light pressure wash, then 2-3 coats of mopnglo. Lasts about a year, no white streaks.

I don't handle heights well, so I hire it out every year. He uses the same wash and wax product I use on the sides of the MH and I never have the white streaking problem anymore. I probably should mention that I wash my MH every couple weeks!

Isn't the fiberglass roof "painted" just like the sides? If so, a coating of wax would be desirable to keep the sun from damaging the paint.
Maybe it's too late once the streaking/chalking starts - but I think if it was waxed once or twice a year from new, no other maintenance would be required.

I painted mine so hopefully don't have to wax for a few years.

I'm pretty sure my roof is just white gelcoat that has oxidized. I like the more permanent solution of painting it with marine deck paint to prevent the oxidation. Just need to get the time to do it.

WhenI search Amazon for Mop and Glow I find a variety of cleaning products, any particular variation you have found that works best?
Thanks,

Easier to get it any supermarket, Home Depot, Lowe's etc. It's floor wax. I use a sponge mop. Pour onto the clean roof, spread with mop, dries to a shine in 15 minutes or so. YOU may have to do more coats depending on how porous the roof is.

Murphy's (oil soap maker) Quick Shine is the best mop and shine product to use on the roof in my opinion.
