Vacuum bonding the wrong way is an EPIC FAIL on the part of most, if not all RV mfgs. This sets the stage for almost certain delamination issues!

WG, you need to do some more investigation into process before you make absolute statements like this. Just because your Lance trailer has a pinch roller glue process doesn't make it better than a vacuum bonding process. In fact, most folks that deal with panel bonding will disagree with your absolute statement.
Just think about this in a practical sense. If I have larger panels that need to be compressed to make sure that the glue between them is in contact with the panel, is it better to have force on only a smaller area where the force is provided by rollers or is it better to have the force spread evenly over the entire area of the panels? We can discuss this in greater length as there are other factors at work with panel bonding.
