polishing a newer trailor

If I remember corectly The newer trailors are more dificult to polish.
Till what year is the skin the same as the 70's models regarding polishing.
I am looking for a mid 80's model now but want to be sure that it can be polished.

If my memory serves me right (and that is debateable), Airstream changed the skin aluminum in mid '83.
