Description
Winter Prep Kit is a curated bundle of six RV winterization essentials — tank treatments, sensor and seal care, sanitation gloves, and heavy-duty cleaning wipes — designed to get your RV's plumbing and sanitation systems ready for cold-weather storage.
Overview
Preparing your RV for winter storage means more than just draining the water lines — your holding tanks, toilet seals, and sensors need attention too, and you'll want the right gear on hand to keep the job clean. This Winter Prep Kit bundles six trusted RV maintenance products so you can handle waste tank treatment, deep cleaning, seal care, and hand protection in one shopping trip — and buying them together as a bundle saves you money compared to purchasing each item separately.
What's Included
1. Thetford 50247 — Toilet Seal Lubricant & Conditioner
Silicone-based, non-petroleum lubricant that penetrates and coats toilet seals to keep them smooth and flexible through the off-season. Prevents sticking and cracking caused by seals drying out during storage. 24 oz. bottle.
2. Thetford 50419 — Tank Blaster™ Waste Holding Tank Treatment
A dual-action deep-clean treatment that breaks down built-up residue on black/gray/portable tank walls and cleans level sensors for accurate readings. Cherry Scent, formaldehyde-free, works overnight — ideal for a thorough clean before your RV sits idle for the season. 4 x 1.6 oz. pouches.
3. Thetford 50438 — Aqua-Kem® Toss-Ins® Waste Holding Tank Treatment
Fast-acting, formaldehyde-free biological treatment that liquefies waste and tissue to help prevent clogging. Fresh Scent deodorant. Useful for a final tank treatment before storage or to keep tanks fresh if you're not fully winterizing right away. 12-count, 1.5 oz. pouches.
4. Thetford 50285 — Aqua-Foam™ Toilet Cleaner
Foaming cleaner that removes grime from porcelain and plastic toilet surfaces in seconds without scrubbing — a fast way to leave the bowl spotless before closing up for winter. 2 oz. packets, set of 3.
5. Camco 40287 — Heavy Duty Reusable Sanitation Gloves
Thick, latex-free PVC gloves with a secure wet/dry grip, built for handling tanks, hoses, and cleaning chemicals during winterization. Reusable, one pair, one size fits most.
6. Permatex 25052 — Fast Orange® Cleaning Wipes
Pre-moistened, heavy-duty wipes that cut through grease, tar, grime, ink, paints, sealants, and adhesives — perfect for cleaning up hands and surfaces after handling hoses, tank treatments, or antifreeze during winter prep. Pack of 10 wipes.
Why These Six Together
This kit covers the core of a proper RV winter shutdown for the sanitation system: cleaning the bowl, treating and deep-cleaning the tanks, conditioning the seals so they don't dry out in storage, and protecting/cleaning your hands throughout the process — all in one bundle instead of tracking down each item separately, at a better value than buying them individually.

FAQ
Do I need all six products for a basic winterization, or just some?
At minimum, most RVers run a tank treatment (Tank Blaster™ or Aqua-Kem®) and seal conditioner before storage. The toilet cleaner and gloves make the job faster and cleaner, and the wipes handle cleanup — all six together give you full coverage in one kit.
Is buying this kit cheaper than buying each item separately?
Yes. Bundling these six items together saves you money compared to purchasing them individually.
What's the difference between Tank Blaster™ and Aqua-Kem® in this kit?
Tank Blaster™ is a deep-cleaning treatment for stubborn tank wall residue and sensors, best used before long-term storage. Aqua-Kem® is a faster, everyday-style treatment for breaking down waste and tissue. Using Tank Blaster™ first, then a final Aqua-Kem® dose, is a common winterizing routine.
Are the gloves and wipes reusable?
The Camco gloves are reusable and washable. The Permatex wipes are single-use, pre-moistened wipes — 10 per pack.
Is this kit safe for septic systems and holding tank seals?
Yes. The Thetford tank treatments are formaldehyde-free and septic-safe, and the seal lubricant is a silicone-based, non-petroleum formula safe for RV/marine toilet seals.
