I read once on this forum that there is a shop near the Tiffin factory in Alabama that can do a fiberglass roof conversion from a rubber roof. Does anyone here know anything about this company and ca...

larry cad,
Well, I've not heard of converting them to fiberglass but, I've seen (on the net anyway) several that have been converted to the "truck bed liner" material. There is a company not far from us in the San Diego county area that does the process. They remove the rubber, repair any underlayment if there is need. All A/C units are removed and the surface is prepped for the coating.
Then, it's taped off where the coating is not wanted/or needed and the material is sprayed on. From what I've read and seen, it's exactly like the sprayed on truck bed liner. And, it can be colored, should you want something other than white. In the end, it's about a zillion times stronger than any rubber roof and, most likely way stronger than a fiberglass one too. The last time I looked into it, it was around $3500-$4500 depending on the size of the coach and, how many A/C units had to be removed and of course, how much wood rot may have to be repaired. Just a suggestion.
