Randy,
While it's probably not the best idea I have pressure washed mine with a cheap Harbor Freight electric pressure washer.  It doesn't have anywhere near the power of my Honda Gas pressure.  It did remove most of the dirt, but I still needed to use a brush mounted to a handle to scrub the toughest spots.  I also kept the tip at least 6 inches from the roof. 
My gas unit would certainly do damage to the roof. This electric unit works well on painted surfaces , cars, and has never damaged anything. 
You may end up with one that has too much power so proceed with caution.

    George,

  You need to remove the circuit breaker "box" and let it drop down to reveal the back cap enclosure. Then you will see the camera mount. Fred

   Greetings Randy,
 I would recommend Dicor self-leveling sealant for all roof openings such as vents, antennas, skylights, ect. Clean existing surfaces with alcohol or laquar thinner and apply a liberal amount with a throw-away paint brush.
  For the fiberglass roof I recommend Rustoleum marine Topside Deck paint, #396959 Gloss white. It has a sanded finish for no-slip application in the event you have to be up there when the roof may have dew on it. 3 quarts will give you 2-coats of cover and will last 3-4 years if stored in the sun. Hope this helps, Fred
