Why Fibreglass Motorhomes Need More Protection Than Painted Ones

Did you know fibreglass needs more protection than paint?
Most fibreglass motorhomes are built with low-UV gel coats, especially in models imported from overseas. And here’s the catch — New Zealand’s UV rays are 5–6 times stronger than Europe’s.

Without regular care, fibreglass will:

• Oxidise

• Lose its gloss

• Break down over time - Eventually, it will require a complete repaint — which is costly and avoidable.

How to Protect Your RV from UV Damage

Whether your motorhome is fibreglass or painted, ongoing maintenance is critical:

✅ Wash off road grime regularly
✅ Remove bird droppings immediately
✅ Apply a high-quality wax at least twice a year — ideally twice over summer if stored outdoors

Can’t do this yourself? No worries.
