Pam Kennedy • Aug 30, 2022

Our black streak cleaner and bug remover comes in two options:

Ready to Use Spray
Concentrated Foaming

What Do You Use It For?

Well, let’s start with what and how it cleans and then go through the many uses.

1. Ready To Use Spray

This is a spray and wipe cleaner.

What does that mean?

It can be used as a waterless cleaner.

Spray on, let it sit for a few minutes, and wipe it off with a wet clean rag. The Power to Clean! formulation easily removes dirt, grime, black streaks, and bugs without heavy scrubbing. It’s a complete cleaner!

Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker – Black Streak Cleaner and Bug Remover can be used on the entire exterior of your RV - roof, sides, and awnings.

2. Deep Cleaning Concentrate

The only difference in this version is that it has a foaming agent used through a foam cannon. It’s also concentrated.

The use is the same as the ready-to-use spray, which can be used to clean the entire exterior of your RV.

You can also use it without the foam cannon, but it works the best with one.

Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker – Deep Cleaning Concentrate is the solution for an awesome cleaning experience.

With The Power to Clean! formulation, you simply:

Foam it on, let sit a few minutes
Agitate it with a very soft microfiber pad, soft detail brush, or soft microfiber wash head
Rinse away the dirt, grime, black streaks, and bugs
Dry with a clean microfiber cloth

Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker easily gets pollen, sap, pine tar, bird droppings, and even those tough cherry plops!

Less time spent cleaning, less cleaner needed, and most importantly, little to no elbow grease! The Power to Clean! formulation does all the work for you, giving you more time to show off your clean, shiny RV.

Neither version will harm any of the surfaces or decals and is safe to use around kids and pets.

Where Else Can You Use It?

So, because Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker is a safe, biodegradable, eco-responsible exterior cleaner, it can be used to clean most anything outside. Golf carts, vehicles, house siding, awnings, work trailers, ATVs, and much more.

Why Can You Use It Successfully On Other Surfaces?

Cleaning is based on the pH of both the soil and the cleaner. The surface needs to be brought to neutral so the soil can be released.

The outdoor soils that will make the exterior surface dirty are the same on an RV as they are on golf carts, vehicles, house siding, work trailers, ATVs, etc.

Cleaning these surfaces regularly prevents dirt build-up and trapped moisture that can lead to rust, mold, and mildew.

With a high-performing, eco-responsible, biodegradable and safe for most surfaces cleaner such as Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker, cleaning all of these is a breeze.

BUGS, BUGS, And More BUGS!

Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker – Black Streak Cleaner and Bug Remover is also a great bug remover and cleaner. Many products will remove most of the bugs, but then you have to clean to remove the rest or to remove the film those other products leave behind.

Having a product that cleans AND removes the bugs (including love bugs) completely and easily is a time, money, and space saver.

What About Black Streaks? Not All Black Streaks Are The Same.

One type of black streak is a wet dirt drip from the roof or windows. The water then evaporates and leaves the dried soil behind.

One way to keep the black streaks to a minimum is to keep the roof and sides clean. Since the black streak is the same soil as the dirt on the RV, you can use the same cleaner to clean everything…roof, sides, and black streaks all in one.

Also, Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker is a high-quality cleaner, so a little goes a long way.

Two other types of black streak are not caused by dirt. They are caused when elements leach from the rubber seals on the slides and the hard water residue from the air-conditioners dripping.

These are different pH soils and will not be removed with any black streak remover. Gabe’s Pride Bathroom Cleaner has been tested and it works!

*Since we do not know the exact formulation of other bathroom cleaners, we do not recommend other cleaners for this application.*

What Are Clean Streaks And What Causes Them?

Now that you’re armed with your Gabe’s Pride RV Streaker – Black Streak Cleaner and Bug Remover, you’re ready to clean your RV exterior.

But what about clean streaks?

Clean streaks are the opposite of black streaks.

They’re caused by cleaning top to bottom or cleaning your roof first. If you clean the sides in small sections first, from bottom to top, you’re less likely to get clean streaks.

When cleaning your roof first, the cleaner drips down the dirty sides and sits there longer, penetrating only the drip area. If the side is cleaned first, there isn’t anything for the cleaner to clean and, therefore, no clean streaks.

This works for any vertical surface, even if you’re only cleaning the sides of your RV.
