They help to provide extra covered and usable floor space so that even the smallest caravan can still feel comfortable and spacious.

Similarly, this features the same kind of components as the kit above. There\u2019s the company\u2019s own silicone-based awning rail lubricant, a large awning rail brush with an extremely comfortable soft grip and an awning rail spreader made from forged stainless-steel. All of it fits nicely into the protective waterproof bag that\u2019s included in the purchase price.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Protect_Your_Awning\"><\/span><strong>Protect Your Awning <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The main reason manufacturers and customers suggest a specialist awning rail lubricant is because its formula does not contain anything that\u2019s likely to have an adverse effect on the railing itself or even more importantly, the canvas or material of the actual awning.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Homespun_Alternatives\"><\/span><strong>Homespun Alternatives<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>However, silicone-based polishes and even candle wax are great options. If, though, you are interested in using awning rail lubricant, we have picked out some of the best available at the moment. You will notice that many of these come with special awning rail brushes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_of_Cleaning_and_Brushing_the_Awning_Rail_First\"><\/span><strong>Importance of Cleaning and Brushing the Awning Rail First<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The pro tip we would like to offer before getting into the reviews is that lubricating is only half the solution, you need to make sure it\u2019s clean as well. That\u2019s why we\u2019d recommend, even if you don\u2019t opt for one of the brushes below, that you always clean your awning, after using it and before using it, before you even lubricate it, as this will make threading so much easier.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, let\u2019s check out these awning rail lubricants.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cant_You_Just_Use_WD-40\"><\/span><strong>Can\u2019t You Just Use WD-40? <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We know what you are thinking, we all thought the same thing here at Caravan Helper, when we heard of it \u2013 \u2018Do you really need an awning rail lubricant? Can\u2019t you just use WD-40 instead?\u2019 While we are not going to argue about whether other lubricants and polishes could be used instead of a specifically-marketed awning rail lubricant, we will say this \u2013 don\u2019t ever use WD-40.<\/p>\n<p>WD-40 is a quick-fix type product and even means Water Displacement. Rather than providing you with a nice smooth and easy to use railing, it will eventually attract dirt and grime and guess what, that will make it harder in the long run.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Obviously, if you want to save a little money and have some to hand, you could always just use Pledge, Mr Sheen or whatever furniture polish you tend to use. However, there is something to be said about having products, accessories and tools that have just been bought for caravanning.<\/p>\n<p>Given the relatively low price of the products featured above, we would recommend you invest in one of them and save your furniture polish for cleaning the inside of your caravan. As long as you don\u2019t use WD-40, though, it really is up to you and you alone.<\/p>\n<p>For more tips on cleaning and maintenance check out our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanhelper.co.uk\/awning-cleaning\/\">caravan awning cleaning<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you know, awnings are a vital part of any good caravan setup.
