little black mold?? spots on Clipper

[Horst]

My Clipper has a lot of little black spots - looks like mold or fungus or something.
   
It's on the roof, and a little on the side.

Anyone else get this and what did you use to wash/scrub it off and prevent it from coming back?

Thanks

try a little bleach and water 10% should do it, it kills mold and alge and moss should work on this

Horst- Those little black specks are specks of dirt or soot  and algie combined in what might be called the pours of the fibre glass..This is a good example showing fibre glass is not a solid moisture proof surface, as many people believe. There are a number of fibre glass cleaners that will remove them.Gel Gloss will also do the job nicely if you use it generously on a terry cloth  towel or like material.Rub it in well. let it drys slightly and wipe it off. You will plainly notice the black residue in your wiping rag. Then I would recommend you apply another coat of the Gel Gloss,{OR a Good car wax],let dry to a haze and polish.I do this once each spring to the top of our clipper the back and sides get polished more often as needed to stay shiny.Incidently I agree with other Clipper owners that feel this care helps prevent lines or checks,[crazing],in the glass.Bob Chaney #2626

HORST,
Make life easy for yourself.Get a bottle of soft scrub. Same as you use on your kitchen sink.
Hose down the Clipper and start scrubing with a sponge. It will get rid of oxidation and anything else that likes to grow on it.
NEXT- Get a bottle of Gel-Gloss RV Cleaner Wax (very easy to use)You can get this at Camping World.
If you want to go one step further,try Meguiar's Gold Class liquid wax. It has a polymer base and will never yellow. The more you use the more it shines.
Three steps is a bit of work but the results are great. Just ask Mark and Shayne!

Yep, Rich is THE MAN when it comes to the shiny Clipper.

Rich must be right.  It certainly makes his clipper look polished all the time.
