Panel Delamination

Yahoo Message Number: 71187
I have a 2002 Affinity and the panel just prior to the bedroom slide has become delaminated about 12 in and 3'-4' in length. I am looking at repairing it and would like to know what kink of glue or epoxy works best. Is there a type that can be sprayed in to get to where the delamination starts?
Also some of the chrome cargo door covers have come loose and are coming out. I know I could put some sealer and screw them back down with stainless screws. Any better ideas?

Sam,

Sounds like you have a water leak. Trying to reglue without stopping the leak will be less than ideal. I had a delam in the side of my coach and the wood under fiberglass was rotten. In the area of the sidewall delam the side was removed, all the steel was treated for rust and repainted and the wood replaced, then new fiberglass was applied filled sanded smooth and repainted. Cost over $4000.00. While I was in the shop there was a 2006 Magna with the whole side removed due too leaks from the washing machine, it was huge mess, I was told that was a $20,000 repair.

Good luck,

I don't know of any extended warranty companys I could recommen to you, But I sure can tell you of one to stay away from. Untited States Warranty Corporation , Eagle Extended Service Protection Corporationout of Cleveland OH.
All you'll get from this outfit is, Oh that problem isn't covered, even though it is in their Service Contract.

Don, you got it right 100% on US Warranty. I've gotten them to pay the nickel/dime stuff but 0 for 2 on the PTO and HWH hydraulic hose big buck failures.

Perhaps they have changed their procedures, but they paid for repairs to the failed school bus water pump, furnace motor replacement, and injection pump failure.

The last was in 2005.

I did learn to call them first, before scheduling a repair or selecting a repair shop.

My reimbursements exceeded my premium cost.
