Why motorhomes and RVs need paint protection

A motorhome does everything a caravan does and more. It covers more kilometres, so the front collects far more bugs and road grime. It has a cab with automotive paint and a living body with gelcoat or painted panels, which age differently. And between trips it often sits for weeks in the sun, where UV fades the paint, dries out decals and turns fibreglass chalky.

The bigger the vehicle, the harder it is to keep clean by hand. Waxing a motorhome can take a full day on a ladder, and it's gone again within weeks.

What OptiVAN protection does

  • Easier bug removal. Bug residue on the cab and over-cab section comes off with a soak and a rinse instead of scrubbing.
  • Black streaks rinse off. Grime running down from awnings, windows and roof edges has less to grip on.
  • UV protection. Slows fading, chalking and oxidation on large flat panels and the roof.
  • Salt and grime. Coastal salt and road film release with a rinse.
  • Inside too. The interior is protected as part of the same package. See caravan interior protection.

How we protect a motorhome

The process is similar to a caravan, with extra attention on the cab:

  • Full wash of the cab, body and roof where accessible
  • Bug residue, tar, black streaks and sap removed
  • Decontamination of painted and gelcoat surfaces
  • Machine polishing of oxidised or chalky areas where needed
  • OptiVAN applied panel by panel, then left to bond
  • Interior cleaned and protected

Warranty for motorhomes

OptiVAN's lifetime warranty covers both the exterior and interior protection on caravans no older than 5 years. Motorhomes and RVs vary a lot in age and construction, so we'll explain exactly what warranty applies to your vehicle when we quote.

Looking after a protected motorhome

  • Clean bugs off the front after long drives, before they bake on
  • Rinse after coastal trips to remove salt
  • Use a pH-neutral wash and a soft, long-handled brush
  • Keep it shaded or covered between trips where you can

★★★★★

If I could give Hot Ride ten stars, I would! The interior is now completely immaculate and looks (and smells!) like it just rolled off the showroom floor. Their attention to detail is next-level.

Common questions

Is ceramic coating good for motorhomes?

Yes. It's the most practical way to protect the whole body of a large vehicle for years rather than weeks, and it makes bugs and grime far easier to wash off.

Do you protect the cab as well as the living area?

Yes. The whole exterior is prepared and coated, including the cab, and the interior is protected as part of the same package.

Do motorhomes get the OptiVAN lifetime warranty?

The lifetime warranty applies to caravans no older than 5 years. Motorhomes vary, so we explain what applies to your vehicle when we quote.

Can you work in my storage yard?

Yes, as long as there's water and power near the vehicle and room to work safely all the way around it.

Do you protect campervans and camper trailers?

Yes. We protect campervans, camper trailers, fifth-wheelers, RVs and caravans as well as motorhomes.
