the panelling in rv's comes off remarkably easily, done it lots and it goes back on with a few more staples. this makes it easy to check and add more/better material that will be hidden. That's exactly what I will be doing in the next couple of days to our new tt. Even the "studs" in the walls are suspect imho, some manufacturers don't bother nailing/stapling the studs to the top and bottom plates, the're held together with the panelling staples!!
I've renovated/repaired several trailers, generally the construction methods are appalling and shinier glitzier models are no different
