RVs are the largest panels a wrap shop handles. Class A and Class C bodies, travel trailers and fifth wheels combine tall slab sides, slide-outs, storage bay doors and acres of decal graphics. Planning seams and film direction up front is what keeps the job clean.
Where the film goes and what to watch for on each section of a rv.
Panels far exceed 60-inch film width - plan horizontal seams along existing body lines.
Wrap with the slide extended; relieve film at the seal so the slide retracts cleanly.
Curved fiberglass caps need heat-forming; remove lights and badges first.
Wrap doors separately or relief-cut so latches and hinges still function.
RV sides are taller and longer than any single run of 60-inch film, so seams are unavoidable. Hide horizontal seams along existing body swage lines and overlap them downward (like roof shingles) so water sheds away from the edge. Map every seam before the first panel goes on.
A full Class A motorhome can consume 120-260 linear feet of film (400-900 sq ft) and 40-120 labor hours. This is a multi-installer, multi-day job - staging, scaffolding and a controlled-temperature bay are part of the quote, not afterthoughts.
Wrap slide-outs in the extended position and relieve film at the rubber seals so the mechanism still retracts without dragging the edge. Large flat fiberglass panels also flex in transit, so use cast film and post-heat the edges to prevent seasonal lifting.

RV wraps are priced by size and complexity. A full Class A can need 120-260 linear feet of film and 40-120 labor hours, plus print and laminate for graphics - far more than a car, so quote from measured panels.
Almost always. RV sides are taller and longer than 60-inch film, so plan horizontal seams along existing body lines and overlap them downward so water sheds away from the edge.
Yes. Wrap them extended and relief-cut the film at the seals so the slide retracts cleanly without catching or peeling the edge.
