Vinyl roof

Own a 2007 40RLQSO Travel Supreme 5th wheel.

It has a vinyl roof, my question is are the any products designed specifically for a vinyl roof material or just use the same stuff used on a rubber roof?

A vinyl roof like on 1970's cars? Most RV roofs are done with a layer of EDPM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) a synthetic rubber membrane, or TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) another type of rubber membrane. There are some newer rooftop coatings, but the EDPM and TPO are the most popular sheet products used on RV roofs.

If you aren't sure, there are YouTube videos that show how to identify between EDPM and TPO. You could also ask at a local RV shop to check your roof and recommend proper care.

^ what he said.
We had a 2003 TS that was still in good condition aside from the routine chalkiness. We just washed it twice a yr. with a wash / wax product and a bus brush. Not sure if that answers your question?
