Caravan protection in Blaxland

Caravan and motorhome protection in Blaxland

Blaxland sits on the Great Western Highway in the lower Blue Mountains, with family homes on bushy, often sloping blocks. Plenty of locals keep a caravan at home, with the highway heading west and Penrith just down the hill.

Gum trees are part of almost every block here, which means sap, leaves and bark on the roof and walls. Vans that sit under trees stay damp for longer, which encourages mould on seals and black streaks after rain. Summer sun adds fading to the mix.

We come to Blaxland and the surrounding towns, at home or at a storage yard, as long as there's water and power nearby and the van is on reasonably level ground. Nearby, we also cover caravan protection in Glenbrook and caravan protection in Springwood.

OptiVAN is a ceramic coating made for caravans and motorhomes. It forms a slick layer over the body so black streaks and grime rinse off instead of staining, and the finish keeps its colour for longer.
