All the factory cabinets, except for the frames are made from 1/8" plywood with the wood grain pattern over it, and yes you can polyurethane over it. I already have done it on some of them with good results.Jack L
All my doors are solid oak wood and the drawers and frames are all hard wood. Which is one of the reasons I choose my RV.:C

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

My wife happened to notice that our parked trailer had mold growing on the cabinets and factory wood paneling and decided to wash it all down.
Since we have had the trailer, I have built a lot more cabinets and installed them every where there was empty space along with other modifications using matching wood work and panels.
I finished all my work using polyurethane, and she found that every thing that had my finish did not have any mold and all of the factory stuff did.
Needless to say I am adding to my "to do list" to polyurethane all the factory panels.

I know you said you polyurethaned your wood cabinets but just want to check if it was water based or oil based. I find that sometimes people use the term interchangeable.
I agree that you prolly need more/better ventilation.

Are you going to poly your mattress and cushions too? If you have this much mold then you need to ventilate your rig.
Do you have covers over your roof vents so you can leave them open a bit? If not then this should be your first step.
Mine is parked in my yard and we are a mile from the Atlantic and except for a little growth on the rubber roof, my rig stays dry.
