Swelling/bubbles on side

Just bought a used 5th wheel and after getting it home and a good washing, noticed some areas that look like big bubbles/swelling.
have done some reading and it seems it could be something called delamination.
Is this repairable?
Is it something that can be done at home?
What causes this?
  • I just bought an 07 Fleetwood and just the slide has some minor swelling. I was told its expansion, the walls are foam. I camped last week and it got down to the hi 30s and I happen to notice the swelling had almost disappeared. but back home in the mid 70s its back. i'm not going to worry about it and enjoy myself.
