. Some exterior parts of your motor home are made of fiberglass. Thy finish
on these parts is durable, but not indestructible. Any material and finish will
deteriorate in time. Exposure to sunlight, moisture and airborne pollutants can
cause dulling and fading of the.finish. Generally, changes in the finish due to
weathering are cosmetic - they are on the surface of the part and do not affect
its strength. Weathering can take the form of chalking, fading and yellowing.

soft-lined vinyl transit cover. This cover is intended to
protect the front of the motor home while traveling. If this
cover has been exposed to rain, snow, or other moisture,
remove it and let
it
completely .air dry. Elements and
compounds in the water and in the cover material can
react with the motor home exterior fiberglass or paint and
