In the past 10 years, I have rarely seen delamination. We sell and service a lot of RV's that are laminated. It appears the RV makers have found a good system and glue to make almost perfect laminated sidewalls. While this is true for lamination, what I have seen in the past 15 years is, inadequate staples used on aluminum siding. This causes the metal to pull loose from the studs. I have seen this more often than delamination. Now, Delamination can happen when there is a water leak. The wall did not fail, but reacted to the water leak. That is why almost all OEM's state that adding or cutting extra holes in a sidewall voids the warranty for the sidewalls. Doug
