Truck camper cabover repair

[mdr0414]

Hello all ...



I've searched the forums here and have not found a real definitive answer so here goes ...


I have a 2021 Palomino HS-2902 truck camper. There is water damage on the underside of the cabover portion. Deterioration of the covering material and small bulges with water seeping.



My questions are:
1. I've checked everywhere and can really find no place where the water could be coming in. Maybe interior condensation?? A mystery where this could be coming from.


2. What material is this covering made from? I need to figure out how to repair and replace with some kind of plastic or fiberglass sheeting.


tia for your help!

The wet spots could be from condensation but it sounds too much like water for that. Condensation tends to cause mold under the mattress not the kind of damage you describe.


Water can move quite a bit before surfacing where you notice it, so you have to be real creative in your search. Scour the nose section for bad sealant or cracks above or uphill from the wet spot. One of our truck campers leaked through the 5 clearance lights above the cab and allowed water under the bed area and eventually worked it way down and softened the front jack mounts.
