Delamination

[Ted in Tucson]

2013 HR Vactioner . I live in AZ and the coach is stored outside uncovered.  We bought the coach in the winter of 2019 and didn't notice the delam until the next summer.  There is a lot of black paint sections and significant delam there due to the sun and the color.  HR says too bad too sad.  Has anyone had the same problem and or luck with Rev to handle this.  HR was owned by Navistar at the time.  Rev says they have no liability and no supporting docs on the coach.

The delam is far to great for small repairs...probably as much as 30 sq. ft in one area alone or more.

By delamination do you mean the fiberglass side sheets are puckering off the side walls or is the black paint getting small check marks in it?

The panels are separating.. Paint is fine

Take a look at AZExpert on YouTube. This shows whats involved in repairing water damage and de-lamination.

I had that problem 10 years ago. The cause was the factory caulking at the top had dried from being out in the sun for 5 years. Never checked it. Checking the caulking should be another annual maintenance. I'm sure Mr. Throgmartin will be replying soon. He is a good teacher plus a former Marine.

James is the man. Going to help a bud tackle the back of his 5th wheel that’s delaminated.
