What's the difference between caravan cleaning and detailing
The terms Cleaning versus detailing can have different meanings to different people, so we'll explain it in Glitz LanguageDifference between caravan cleaning and detailing
The difference between caravan cleaning versus caravan detailing means different things to different people. For example the service that we provide is to the highest quality and we refer to it only as a clean whereas customers refer to our service as detailing. So the way we differentiate cleaning versus detailing is that if we de-ironise, clay bar and or polish/buff with our buffing machines, this is called detailing. If a buffing machine is not required, we call this cleaning.What is caravan cleaning?

How to clean a caravan exterior
The best way and the Glitz way to clean a caravan exterior is:
- Degrease and bug product #Products: Spray the front of the caravan with degreasers and bug remover, we then spray a degreaser on the dirtier parts of the caravan
- Snow foam #Product & Equipment: snow foam the exterior with a thick coating of foam (car-safe detergent/shampoo) which has a long dwell time. This allows for the shampoo to emulsify the dirt and grime facilitating a safe clean.
- Pressure wash #Equipment: We then pressure wash the exterior with a Petrol Pressure Washer which is able to remove more debris and grime from the exterior than an electric pressure washer in the touch-less part of the clean. This is safer for the longevity of the exterior as we will not be grinding dirt back into the gel coat or aluminium as the pressure washer will have blasted it away. Particular focus is put on mud build up and bug splatter
- Re-snow foam #Product & Equipment: We then re-snow foam the exterior with a high-flow petrol pressure washer for thick, long-dwelling foam which both cleans and lubricates the surface of the caravan therefore facilitating a safer and more effective clean.
- Touch Clean with the latest technology micro-fibre mit#Process: We then and only physically touch the caravan exterior cleaning it with the state-of-the-art microfibre mit to get the caravan clean
- Bug removal #Process & product: It may be then required to address more polluted areas with bug remover, tar remover and degreaser to re-clean the more heavily soiled areas
