Another Airstream cover question
Hello folks. I have a 76 Overlander that I am in the middle of doing a full monty restoration on. The finish on my Airstream is ugly and polishing the exterior is one of the last things I plan to do. I realize that it is discouraged to use a cover on Airstreams, but as I have faded, tarnished clear-coat that will eventually be stripped and polished anyways, would it really hurt to use a cover?
As it stands, I have just installed new subfloors treated with marine epoxy after treating the frame with POR15. I have not had a chance to scrape all of the old caulk from the interior to reseal all seams, and this may not be a task I complete before the rains start. I live in Portland, OR, so we get our share of rain throughout the year.
While my setup should be reasonably water resistance, I don't want to test the resilience to water if I don't have to.
Could I reasonably cover the trailer during this phase of the restoration?
