​Most modern European motorhomes or caravans are fitted with double glazed poly plastic windows. While these are great for insulation factors they can be very easily scratched.
 
To maintain these windows scratch free we recommend you wash these with a microfiber cloth or wash mitt, use a second bucket so your dirt and grime from the body doesn’t get dragged on to the windows.
 
Every now and then it is well worth giving them a coat of car polish to help as this will keep them shiny and hopefully scratch free.
If you want to make sure your windows are looking like new all the time you can talk to your local vehicle detailer and they can apply a ceramic coating for maximum care.
 
Key factor, keep the wash brush well away from them and take care while navigating around trees, hedges and scrub. 

Many motor homer's and industry involved people have no doubt welcomed the recent news from the Minister of Transport Chris Bishop that consultations on extending the CoF inspection period from 6 months to 12 months have begun.
The NZMCA have been lobbying for this to happen for quite some years and it is great to finally see some traction. This could also be the one and only chance we as an industry get to make this change a reality. NZMCA is calling for its members to submit feedback to the NZTA on this matter. You can click on the link below to read in more detail on the proposed change and submit your view as part of the survey. The last day for feedback is April 4th.
