[@howardpalin67]

Absolutely amazing product, when I watched your Vlog I thought Mmm Really!! Bought it, tried it and now the van looks fabulous, thanks again Mark for sharing this and all your other vlogs..👏👍

[@thecaravanplace]

Its very good, on the plastic lights it works amazing too.

[@billhaughton6431]

Well done again Mark with a great cleaning tip. Your costing me a fortune over the last couple of videos. 👍😁

[@dsslimone]

Used this on my van today. Looks a bit fresher now, it scrubbed up well. Thanks.

[@thecaravanplace]

Great to hear! 👍

[@lindakirk698]

Brilliant. Love the 1001 uses for magic sponge!

[@statup2.0]

oh my word, ive just brough a caravan from you today and you are on holiday, i beleave its your dad i spoke to and a really nice guy. Ive watched your videos for along time and didnt even know it was you. WOW

[@ncb2734]

I use 'astonish' mould and mildew blaster. Cleaned everything nicely on our 1996 plastics. Great video as normal Mark..

[@suecoo66]

I'd not thought of using that!

[@terryfielding8836]

Great tip Mark, magic sponges on order since I've watched this video

[@Bessie66]

We’ve just acquired our first caravan - with all the add ons I won’t be looking at my bank account for a short while 😂😂

[@paulpringle8263]

Good job Mark.👍

[@martinkitchin6204]

Useful tip on 'Magic Sponges' I think we got ours from B&M ?Thanks

[@thecaravanplace]

Thanks Martin, they are 👍

[@noahark4699]

Thanks for this tip Mark I have just done mine to day cannot believe there white 👍👍

[@richardhunt6726]

Magic sponge is superb on the plastics I must agree..I use speed swipe to put a shine on the van ..even on the sites people ask me how I get my van so shiney lol ....speed swipe made by chemical brothers excellent product

[@grantfotheringham9467]

Would that be Speed Wipe by Chemical Guys!!?

[@martinkitchin6204]

Our c'van is silver metallic and still relatively new but after it has been washed, I buff it up with some pink spray polish I got marked down at Tesco. Takes about 20 minutes to do entire c'van. Think I may have been a magpie in a previous existence...

[@peterr1716]

Good video on restoring the white, can I ask where you purchase the sponges ?

[@thecaravanplace]

amzn.to/3yIzfKK 👍

[@henz1937]

I have used CIF kitchen cleaner on the locker plastic does a good job too.

[@jampot20000]

Any particular recommendation for which magic sponges to buy on Amazon? Thanks great video

[@thecaravanplace]

I think they all look the same so just go for the cheapest👍

[@suecoo66]

A lot of shops sell them too

[@johnboy4809]

Always used the retro bright technique on yellowed van plastics and always brings them back looking new again even really old van plastics

[@PaulGrayson-gi8pu]

Can you explain what retro bright technique is? Cheers

[@johnboy4809]

@@PaulGrayson-gi8pu to retro bright plastic you cover the yellowed plastic in strong peroxide, wrap it in cling film and then leave it in direct sunlight, once the plastic is back to white rinse it clean. TBH I’ve now found that a tub of pink stuff paste does a better job at whitening plastic and is a lot less messy just a bit of elbow grease

[@henkreimink7252]

Great to see many minutes of polishing, but what is the type of product used, or equivalent available from supermarkets, and type of cloth or brush.

[@thecaravanplace]

Most normal cleaners can be used. Car cleaning products etc.

[@DavidGould-g9k]

Brilliant! What is the best caravan cleaner you would recommend?

[@thecaravanplace]

The caravan magic is very good, the Fenwick is also good. And we have used the jennychem tfr with wax also.

[@DavidGould-g9k]

Thanks for the tips!

[@paoloallen]

Great video again Mark and I can really see why cleaning the way you do is essential for your sales but is it really that important for EVERY van out there to be 'perfect' lol??? Part of the joy of having a van is the fact that its had a bit of life.... they can't all stay immaculate forever lol.... take care 'The Camp Caravanners' x

[@suecoo66]

I'd like mine to be white again the yellow is awful.

[@tomtaylor7679]

Will this work on silver/grey plastics aswell?

[@thecaravanplace]

Not sure with the coloured ones, it will clean them still but not sure if they will come up as good.

[@THENAVIGAT0R]

Best thing I’ve ever found for that is a green back sponge from my kitchen a bit of methylated spirit, hardly any rubbing required.

[@susanmccormick1806]

Elbow grease works it's in spray bottle and a washing up sponge also the pink stuff

[@deathonawhitehorse]

I use the pink stuff made by Stardrops, it really does work! However, I am going to give a magic sponge a go :)

[@PaulGrayson-gi8pu]

Hello, can I ask how you use the pink stuff? I.e. what cloths/scrubber? Cheers Paul

[@deathonawhitehorse]

@@PaulGrayson-gi8pu A dampened microfibre cloth and some elbow grease, keep on wiping it with a dry cloth every few minutes to make sure it has done it's job. I tend to scoop a little onto a microfibre cloth just damp, then apply it vigorously until it begins to form a dry, chalky texture. Then wipe if off using a dry microfibre cloth. Keep on doing this until it has done the job, then apply a nano coating to make sure it is uv protected.

[@MD-gc4xq]

Milton does exactly the same, as the mould remover

[@thecaravanplace]

Thanks David

[@suecoo66]

Oh that's useful to know

[@rich1ell]

Thetford bathroom cleaner is great on plastics too.

[@kieranmckenna209]

I use Pink worked wonders on my 2006 lockers they were realy tarnished

[@Youtube_deleted_my_favourites]

Silka is top notch and cost effective, makes your 'van look brandnew. Have you done a video on getting scratches out of the windows? I've tried a product that is wise about windows but what a waste of money - what trade tip do you have for window scratches?

[@WalterFieldingJr]

Presume you mean Silky Caravan Cleaner?

[@ajb402]

What is the product name of the soap Hope your see this

[@thecaravanplace]

Just soapy water or any caravan cleaner, the caravan magic is pretty good. www.amazon.co.uk/shop/thecaravanplace/list/31JHWM0SLNKES?ref_=cm_sw_r_apann_aipsflist_aipsfthecaravanplace_D0QEVR2BM4M0YB2DC78Y

[@suecoo66]

​@@anthonyboyle920sometimes they get called eraser sponges. Often see them in the middle aisles of Lidl or Aldi too

[@617539]

Mark, are you getting money from Amazon, this is a product I must try, well done for the tip.

[@thecaravanplace]

I think I should be 😂😂

[@jacketrussell]

Cif bathroom cleaner works well, I've found.

[@digger000100]

use HG mould spray it will look like brand new no scrubbing .

[@thecaravanplace]

We will give this a try.👍

[@skookumjack]

'HG upvc' for plastic window frames is top-drawer . Worth a shout too!

[@jacketrussell]

HG mould spray is the only thing I've tried that shifted the black streaks on my van. Careful not to get it on anything that's not white though.

[@mallymac9761]

I love a magic sponge they have so many uses but I hope no one goes near there paint work with them, there aggressive and you won’t know till it too late

[@paul-fk7de]

Maybe toothpaste and the magic sponge will work

[@Ant-dx8yt]

You'd need about 10 sponges per caravan, they don't last long at all

[@Bob-kb5pv]

Very weak bleach solution works for us, and no issues if it gets on the metal.
