Temporary exterior protection for caravans and motorhomes during storage.
Fenwicks Overwintering Exterior Protector forms a temporary coating over the outside of a caravan or motorhome while it is stored. The treatment helps repel water, dirt and algae, reducing the amount of grime that can build up over the wetter months.
It is suitable for plastics, aluminium, glass, acrylic windows, GRP, ABS, fibreglass, decals, sealants and paint. The concentrated formula mixes with water before application and one litre can cover up to 50 square metres.
This is an exterior surface treatment. It is not intended for drinking-water systems, waste tanks, plumbing or engines.

Half a litre of Overwintering mixed with two litres of water will cover most vehicles. Mix a smaller quantity first if you are unsure how much you will need.
Avoid applying it to motorhome windscreens because the coating may cause smearing. The vehicle can be used with the treatment in place, but it may need another application after prolonged bad weather.
How to Remove It
Wash the exterior with a mixture of one part Fenwicks Caravan Cleaner or Motorhome Cleaner to 10 parts water. Rinse the vehicle thoroughly after cleaning.
Always follow the instructions on the container before use.
Why Choose Fenwicks Overwintering Exterior Protector?
Bobby Dazzler is a light after-wash treatment for regular use. Overwintering is a more substantial temporary coating intended for a caravan or motorhome that will be parked outside for an extended period.
It is useful when you want to reduce winter dirt and algae without fitting a full vehicle cover. The coating will not stop every mark, particularly through prolonged bad weather, but it should make the exterior easier to clean when the vehicle comes out of storage.
Our Thoughts
This product makes the most sense when a caravan or motorhome will sit outside for several weeks or months. If the vehicle is being used and washed regularly, Bobby Dazzler is likely to be the simpler option.
Apply it to a clean, dry surface and aim for a thin, even coat. A garden sprayer usually makes this easier than a sponge, particularly on larger panels. Give yourself a dry-weather window for application and curing, and keep it away from the windscreen.
