same for me, just bought adapter for power wash so 1st time today and much the same result. It seemed to work though as scrubbed up not too bad so guessing once I get the right mix and coverage it can only get better

With my Defender I just stand on a tyre. But how do you clean your T6?

Do I need to buy a step box of similar.

Thanks

 

[Dellmassive]

Small step, stool, hopup, ladder, other.

Anything that's safe to stand on and sturdy.

Or just dont bother with the roof.

Hopup

 

[XZO]

Do any of use a brush or mop on a handle

 

[fezza68]

I use an extandable wash brush thingy for the sole use of cleaning the roof.

Suspend myself from a tree.

I tell the Polish chaps to get their ladder out

 

[fezza68]

Get @Tourershine to do it

I have a fold up platform about 400mm high. I got it for plastering. It's long enough to stand a bucket on the end while I'm on it which saves going up and down. Hot it from wicked but most DIY places gave them.

you lift a kid on top of a 2.1m high barrier, tell him/her to hold on and drive under it while he/she scrubs

Always a tad nervous that they will use gritty cloths and scratch the paint

Maybe I should take a look at the roof, from the top of a ladder!

 

[Peatey]

I always pop my roof then use a extendable long handle broom style brush, then do the rest of the van properly.

Having a bath tub roof i dont worry about leaks when an open roof and water are applied

 

[Lukavell]

Step ladder or stand on the door steps and tyres

 

[TheHungryGhost]

I've got a wee set of steps that a gas engineer left (I've also got a big stepladder that was left by a different gas engineer, but that's another story), and use a brush on a pole - it used to be extendable, but it was a cheapie from Home Bargains and broke, but it still gets the job done.

At 5'6" (nearly) I have to stand on the front wheels to clean the windscreen.

As for trying a bit of hip hop for the roof I use my deep house step ladder and still have my gut on the roof edge to reach the middle... it is an economy upturned bath tub pop top though as I like the extra 6" headroom inside compared to an Hilo.
