2009 Coachmen Captiva™

High strength urethane bonds a smooth fiberglass sheet to a lauan backing to form the exterior wall. Then it’s bonded with urethane adhesive to a welded aluminum frame filled with rigid polystyrene insulation. Finally, a decorative panel is glued to the inside of the wall.

The completed wall is then placed under pressure in the vacuum bond (bag) process for 30 minutes or longer to ensure completely smooth, high strength bonding.

The result is a smoother exterior finish, stronger walls and lighter weight. Light and easy to tow and better built for longer life.

Please be sure to verify your particular tow vehicle manufacturer’s specifications. Your Coachmen dealer will be glad to help you with questions.

2009 Coachmen Captiva™

High strength urethane bonds a smooth fiberglass sheet to a lauan backing to form the exterior wall. Then it’s bonded with urethane adhesive to a welded aluminum frame filled with rigid polystyrene insulation. Finally, a decorative panel is glued to the inside of the wall.

The completed wall is then placed under pressure in the vacuum bond (bag) process for 30 minutes or longer to ensure completely smooth, high strength bonding.

The result is a smoother exterior finish, stronger walls and lighter weight. Light and easy to tow and better built for longer life.
