Why travel trailers is different.
Travel trailers are the gateway RV. They're towed by SUVs, half-ton trucks, and minivans across Texas every weekend. They range from compact 16-foot Casitas (fiberglass eggs with cult-level owner loyalty) to 35-foot Grand Design Imagines with full slide-outs and cathedral ceilings. The challenge with travel trailers is variety — every brand uses different cladding (smooth fiberglass, aluminum siding, fiberglass with graphics, full-paint), and the right detail process depends on which one you have. Then there's Airstream, which is its own universe: polished aluminum that needs hand-polish with specialty compound, not normal RV chemistry.
A Casita has fiberglass that polishes like a boat hull. An Airstream has aircraft-grade aluminum that requires three-step hand polishing (cleaner, polish, sealant) to bring back the mirror finish. A Forest River R-pod has a unique angular cap with graphics that need careful work around decals. A Grand Design Imagine has full slide-outs with seals that need conditioning. We've worked on all of them and know the chemistry differences — using one product on the wrong surface ruins it. Tongue jacks, propane tanks, sewer hose storage, battery boxes, leveling-jack feet — every external touchpoint gets attention.
Texas reality check. Texas hailstorms are the silent killer of travel trailers. We see hail-dimpled front caps from every spring season. Sun bakes the fiberglass sidewalls into chalking by year three. Hard mineral water at most RV park hookups leaves white spots. Tow vehicles tracking red clay onto the trailer tongue every trip. Storage yards full of trailers sitting under shade-cloth that traps mildew on the roof. Common, fixable, all part of what we handle.
The travel trailers protocol.
Walk-around: front cap hail check, sidewall oxidation level, roof condition, awning, slides, propane and battery compartment.
Pre-wash with bug remover on the front cap (always gets the worst of it from highway towing).
Pressure rinse top-down with soft water.
Hand-wash with surface-appropriate soap — fiberglass gets one product, aluminum siding gets another, Airstream aluminum gets a dedicated polish-prep wash.
For Airstream: three-step polish (acidic cleaner, polish, sealant) by hand with specific Airstream products like Cyclo or Hagerty. No shortcuts.
For fiberglass and aluminum-clad trailers: DA polisher with fiberglass-appropriate compound, single or two-stage based on oxidation.
Roof treatment: TPO/EPDM rubber roofs get a rubber-specific UV protectant; fiberglass roofs get fiberglass protectant. Inspect seals around AC unit, vents, antenna.
Decals and graphics: polished with vinyl-safe compound. Faded graphics get a brightener pass.
Slide-out service: seal conditioning, mechanism wipe.
Awning brush-cleaned with mildew remover.
External: propane tank wipe, sewer hose compartment, battery compartment, leveling jack feet.
Optional interior service: vacuum, cushions, dinette, bathroom, galley.

Airstream specifically
Airstream Bambi, Caravel, Flying Cloud, International Serenity, Globetrotter, Classic. All polished aluminum, all require the three-step hand polish. We've done dozens.
What owners always ask.
Yes — we do the proper three-step hand polish with Airstream-grade products (Cyclo cleaner, polish, sealant or Hagerty equivalents). An older shell may need multiple visits to bring back the mirror finish; a newer one needs maintenance polish annually. We've worked on Bambis through Classics.
Polishing won't fix hail dimples — those need paintless dent repair (PDR) or a fiberglass repair shop. What we do is polish out the surface oxidation around the dimples, refresh the gelcoat, and refer you to a trusted PDR tech for the actual dimple work.
Yes. TPO and EPDM roofs each get a rubber-specific UV protectant. We never use fiberglass protectant on a rubber roof and vice versa. We also inspect seals around AC shrouds, vents, and the front cap and flag anything that's lifting.
Yes. Storage yard service is one of our most common bookings — we come to the yard, fully self-contained with water and power, and do the detail on the spot. Trailer must be accessible (we need to walk around it).
Yes. Interior-only is available — vacuum, cushions, dinette, bathroom and galley sanitize, headliner spot-clean. Especially useful before listing for sale.
A 16-20 ft Casita or small fiberglass starts at $400. A 24-28 ft Jayco or Grand Design with mild oxidation runs $700-900. A 32-35 ft luxury trailer with heavy polish work and ceramic coating runs $1,000-1,400. Airstream full polish is quoted separately based on shell condition.
