sweeping awning

[acer]

I want to be able to clean leaves etc off from the awning before winding-in, but struggle reaching over and waving rags and so on.
Any solutions?
Does anyone have a telescopic brush on board to do this job?
Do you know where I might get one?
(Apologies if this has been covered before - my search skills don't appear to be very good!)

I use this. Good for cleaning insects off the windscreen if you travel distances. Also clear the awning.

We use a broom with detachable handle. Pole goes in with the awning poles and brush head in box we keep all the odds and sods in. Got it in Wilko.

Like the doubling-up of function. Does the head detach from the pole in addition to the telescopic action of the pole itself?

Thanks for that. Looks much better than the telescopic broom that I've been using. Just ordered from Amazon.

I just get an old bath towel and throw it onto awning then drag it off. Clears the muck and any water.

No.

We use a Leki walking stick just because it happens to be on the van. It had the cork handle so I can wrap a microfibre cloth around it.

Rain usually washes all the crap off ours.

Too late I had not realized about clearing any leaves or debris of ours and now we have a leaves fossilized on ours. Will not come off with anything

Try ECOVER General cleaning spray.
