How Protect All Makes Your Rig Last Longer
Dave SolbergDescription
For decades Protect All has been an industry-leading provider of cleaning, treating and protecting solutions that helps RVers extend the lifespan of their vehicles. Protect All products can be used on just about any rig to keep plastic, leather, EPDM roofing and a range of other materials and surfaces in tip-top shape. They’ve recently added two new solutions to their line of wonderful products, Rubber Roof Treatment (RRT) and All Surface Care (ASC). In this lesson, we explain why we’re such big fans of these new features, and talk about all the ways you can utilize them on your rig.
Since he can remember, RVing expert Dave Solberg has relied on Protect All products to get the most out of his vehicles. So it’s no surprise Dave is thrilled to introduce the latest in the line of Protect All solutions, RRT and ASC. He walks you through a quick demonstration to show you how these agents work, discussing the importance of treating any surface that can break down under harsh UV rays or that comes in contact with the elements. Dave is a believer: if you apply Protect All products to your rig, it will hold up stronger and last longer!
Hi, Dave Solberg, managing editor of the RV Repair Club. I've been using the ProtectAll product for over 25 years, starting with the Black Streak Remover back in the late '80s, and a lot of products throughout the years. A couple new products have just come into the market that I'm really excited about. First of all is the Rubber Roof treatment and the nice thing about this is that it has UV protection built in. So rather than just cleaning it and leaving that rubber exposed to the elements, this will help EPDM roofs from UV degradations, so it's not gonna chalk as bad, it's not going to deteriorate or dry up. So a good product to have. Just spray it on and mop it off. Now, the second product they have is called the ProtectAll All Surface Care and what this does is it not only polishes and waxes, but it does also have a UV protection built into it. And one of the things that a lot of people don't realize is tire manufacturers only want you to clean the tire with a mild detergent and don't use any tire shine on it. We see all the time people spraying that fancy stuff on it. That's gonna even make that tire crack faster because it's gonna dry that outside portion of the tire out. This is designed for UV protection. Simply squirt it on here, all different surfaces. I'm just gonna do a portion here so you can see the difference in this but, ya know, it's not gonna make the tire shine. Again, all that is is aesthetics, it's just cosmetic. I wanna protect that tire, I wanna keep it from weather checking and I wanna make it last a lot longer. This product will do that. It'll do it for fiberglass. I can put the dash up front where I'm gonna get a lot of sun that comes down on that vinyl. It will do leather. Even the seals around my windows, my slide room seal. Just make it nice and pliable, keep it from drying up, keep it from cracking. ProtectAll, one of the most recognized name in the RV industry.
How is Protect All different from Armour All? Seems like both are designed to replace oils that have evaporated from polymer based materials and leather.
I've been reading that you shouldn't use this on rv rubber roofs because it has petroleum distillates in it. Is this true?
I was not happy to see a advertisement for guns and getting extra ammunition if you bought one before see the the free video. I understand that you do need to have advertising before the videos, but not for GUNS! Thank you.
I had my roof refinished can I use the protect all on the roof
