TIPS THIS WEEK ARE PLENTIFUL

We have recently discovered three outstanding CLEANING PRODUCTS…

***#1 The first is ADVANTAGE from Go Clean.com. This product was specially designed for Mary Findley’s (a.k.a. Mary Moppin’s) site. John has been using Advantage to polish the upper portion of the LUXOR and it once again sparkles. He added a second coat for outstanding results. Mary wrote a great article of tips for cleaning RVers HERE. Click on the ‘Go Clean’ banner and then onto ‘RV’ for an abundance of more cleaning tips. Mary does offer items for sale at economical prices, but she also has a lot of very valuable No-Cost info on her website. John highly recommends ADVANTAGE – he applied it with the special baby diaper cleaning clothes from Mary as well.

***#2 SPRAY NINE…During our house cleaning we found a sample spray bottle of Spray Nine. This Item is available in many stores but as we found out it is an outstanding cleaning product for many surfaces. Our oak stained kitchen cupboards looked badly marked from the oil on our hands due to use. We cleaned the doors with Spray Nine and all the ‘icky’ residue came off. The brass handles also came up to a shimmering finish. In Wal*Mart we bought a big bottle and over this summer we plan to add a clean fresh finish to all our kitchen cupboards (maybe to all cupboards eventually). Again we both highly recommend SPRAY NINE.

***#3 Last winter we discovered AWESOME – available in the USA $$$ Stores. It usually comes in a spray bottle – but it can be diluted and occasionally you may find it in a refill size container as well. Sometimes you may find Totally Awesome Orange or Totally Awesome for Pet accidents too. It will CLEAN most hard surfaces although you may need to add an extra application of a wax to make it shimmer. Without exaggerating – it is Totally AWESOME.

INTERESTING POINT - John Goggled ‘Oil Imports to the USA’ after we watched a recent speech by Barack Obama - we were both surprised to discover that the USA imports more oil from Cda than anywhere else. Read the full story HERE....

In this week's RV Travel.com newsletter – two articles of interest are worth reading…

***#1 BE AWARE OF HOW TO NOT START A WILDFIRE – While lightning starts many fires, RVers are responsible for others – not always by careless handling of campfires. Read how the improper use of a Generator can start a wildfire.

*** #2 MANY RVers know how to read the date on their tires to be sure you are buying NEW tires and not some OLD ones that look new – Old tires are prone to losing their tread – some stores sell outdated ones. In several cases, the life of well cared for RV Tires have been extended beyond the previous 4-5 years to maybe in the 7-year range – that is according to a story I recently received from Michelin written for Freightliner Chassis Owners Club chapter members. But it remains most important to watch for any sign of cracking and especially. ‘Watch this video for more info’.

In a recent Good Sam Members Newsletter the editors shared how to ACCESS AND RESERVE YOUR FAVORITE CAMPGROUND 24/7 – Booking your next RV getaway is now just a click away. At TRAILER LIFE DIRECTORY Online Reservations, you can access your favorite campground and make reservations 24/7 from hundreds of campgrounds and RV parks all across the United States.

An Article in this month FMCA’S Member Newsletter discusses Full Timing, Banking Tips and available Day-to Day Lifestyle Discounts by Janet Groane author of ‘Living Aboard your RV Third edition’ is extremely informative. Definitely worth a read.
