Any relatively low effort and low cost solutions to RV and trailer black streaks and how to remove/prevent them other than parking in a garage?

Seeing Mike's new family toy I'm sure he will "care". I don't even want to think about trying to keep Colin's new 44' trailer looking clean but at least a car trailer doesn't have all the openings and vents that an RV or camping trailer does.

I already know the hard/expensive ways (lots of black streak remover and lots of effort involving ladders) :cry:

Majestic Solutions in Raleigh sells stuff for exact purpose. I haven't used it myself, so no personal experience to draw from, but the majority of the products I've tried from there have been excellent.

Just a head's up, if the product that you find is "Protect All" brand, "Black Streak Remover" then test a small inconspicuous area before going hog wild with cleaning. I have found that this stuff will remove some paints. The down side is that it didn't do a very good job of actually removing the black streaks from outdoor storage.
We've been using "Simple Green" in a high concentration and doing a pretty good job with a soft nylon brush.

This is good advice when using any cleaning product for the first time. Automotive or household.
