2000 Fleetwood Discovery 36T Exterior Sidewall Material?

[harleyguy88]

Hello . I was wondering if anyone knows what the Exterior Sidewalls are made of on my 2000 Discovery. I know the front and rear caps are Fiberglass however don't know about the Sidewalls. I thought they were aluminum but then I read somewhere that they Vacubond? Whatever that is. Thanks in advance for your help. Randy

Do you have the Owners Manual ?? I have a 2000 Discovery 37 V and I think the sides are fiberglass.. I will check it out.

Yes I have Owners Manual. However doesn't say.

Vacubond , is the process where the exterior fiberglass wall material is glued and bonded to the aluminum wall frame work in a special chamber.
I don't own the same RV , that you have, but I'm 99% sure you have fiberglass external wall material.

Does your manual cover the material in the " External Care " section ?

Thanks for your help! Found out it is Vacubond. Was somewhat concerned as I just bought it last year. We're Rookie RV'ers and Snowbirds. I was told after I completely washed and wax Motorhome by hand that I used the wrong wax. (Car Wax). So now I'm going to do it all over again before we head back to Green Bay WI. Just want to make sure I buy and use the right stuff this time. Thanks Randy
