    And yet again a good example of why i think slide outs are a horrible idea. I've got got a 20' camp trailer that I've got to skin and rebuild and you've got the best educational vids yet!

      We bought a rv with delamination, the seller tried changing the subject and we really didn't know as we're first time buyers, ughhh! And he said he told my husband it had a leak in shower skylight but he repaired it, but when I asked about the bubbles he said he didn't know and it's below floor level but it's not it's on back shower wall and also below floor level. The bay metal roofs are damaged to where foam is falling along with holes in the metal and ants. So we just waisted money.

James I appreciate the time you take in showing these repairs. I do work on my RV, just minor stuff. I'm too embarrassed to show my so called expertise. Thankfully this type of delam is not as common on a Wanderlodge. Still have to maintain the roof and window seals. The Wanderlodge makes up for it in other repairs that require help from online support that have the same issues. Thanks again for your videos. I appreciate them.

    That is a huge amount of work and you guys are doing it right. I'm just shocked at the shoddy construction, it's not like no one knows how to build watertight walls e.g. boat builders do it all the time...... Esp. given the cost of these things, the profit margins must be massive - that said, it sounds like they are using 1970s construction techniques - boat builders moved to vacuum bagging decades ago as it is way more efficient.

    • @AZExpert
      @AZExpert  3 года назад

      A few manufacturers do use vacuum bagging and I think it is becoming more common, but unlike boats and planes these things don't sink or fall out of the sky so the bar is pretty low. :)

    Good to see a fellow Samsung Note 9 user! I was nearly ready to put my 2005 Winnebago up for sale after watching your roof and j-channel videos. This may clinch it! I'd like to know if that coach lived in a super wet climate. Seems like quite a bit of rust on what little I could see of the chassis. I don't have any of that, so maybe this has been exposed to a lot of rain. Thank you so much for documenting this, it really does show that owners need to keep up on maintenance, especially the areas way above eye level.

Since that Sta bond glue is basically unavailable to the general public what glue would recommend. Water based contact adhesive? Spray foam? PL 300 foamboard adhesive. A new 46" bay door is almost $ 800.00 plus I'll have to paint it or have it painted. The paint on ours is nearly perfect so I'm going to attempt to fix it.(delamination between the filon and styrofoam. Thanks

    Great video i would have continued on with the rear and find the leak, isnt there a thermal imaging camera you can use to scan these roofs and walls to determine how much rot there is behind? You can rent them... Keep the rig cool in side if hot outside or hot inside if cool outside, rotten wood doesnt conduct heat and with a thermal imaging camera easy to see leaks damage without tearing apart, they use this on houses and i think it might work with you guys, anyway great work!!

  • @PhilipZurcher
    @PhilipZurcher 3 года назад

    This video series, Part 1 and 2...(3?) has been so helpful. My CC has this exact issue but I believe the water damage came from around the windows. Both damaged areas have a window that the wood framing around the window is rotted. Plus CC does not cover the entire outside layer with foam so the framing is exposed unlike W. The CC exposed steel framing is now rusted due to the moisture and would have to be cleaned and treated before repairing. Is there a product that can be used in lieu of Lauan that would act as the barrier between fiberglass and foam? That way the week point (Lauan) if it got wet it wouldn't separate and cause de-lamination? On my coach and this one and all others that had the de-lamination issues visible from the outside the only issue is that the three layers of wood sheets that Lauan is made, separates from and then there is no structure bonding the wall. Love your channel and work ethic, expect an email shortly:)

    As a future RV owner I am now terrified of not finding a leak until its very expensive. Can you share on future videos, the labor time required to do repairs, so we have some idea as to cost.

    • @AZExpert
      @AZExpert  3 года назад +1

      like most shops, it's difficult to share pricing as everyone has different ideas what a job should cost and why. I quoted this one at $5500 and worked on it from Monday to Friday all week.

    You said the luan is not structural in the walls because there is bracing. Is there any problem with just leaving a delaminated wall section that is only a couple of feet wide after the roof leak has been repaired? It hasn't gotten any worse in the last year and you have to look very closely to see the delimitation.

    James, thank you for this part 2.
    Please educate me about the foam. After using fungicide, could a person spray a coat of kilz on the foam?
    I thought about this when watching the video, and thought I’d ask your thoughts about this?
    I’m definitely looking forward to seeing your next video regarding this repair.
    Thank you.

    • @AZExpert
      @AZExpert  3 года назад

      I would not recommend it Kilz would just coat the foam and keep the wood from sticking and of course mold won't grow on the foam only the wood.

    So, is it even worth putting on like a kilz paint on the thin wood panels you are gluing back on there? It seems like if you put on some kind of treated wood it would repel water better than just untreated, imo. great series! I say I am going to tackle my class C but after watching you do this, it looks more & more like a professional job, OR just scrap the damn thing OR tear down the whole thing to the chassis and rebuild something totally new. LOL!
