Leaky Window Repair - Vintage Airstreams
Ever since Airstream started their trailer production business in 1931, many trailers have traveled the world and experienced all the different weather conditions. Each weather condition has a different effect on the trailers and the exterior aluminum skin that makes them so iconic. One of the drawbacks of course is the difficulty to keep each aluminum window water tight.

Foam Insulation - Possible Challenges
We are hearing more and more about Airstreamers using or being interested in using foam insulation for their Airstream restorations. While it could be a great option, if applied improperly, can be quite a disaster. Also keep in mind future repairs. To get to the area to repair you have to dig out the foam insulation, and most likely refill it with regular insulation.

Airstream Polishing
If your Airstream looks like it has splotchy patches this is the clearcoat that is peeling away.
You cannot start polishing until you get rid of the clearcoat and this process is very messy process but it's a must. You first have to apply a premium stripper (make sure you wear goggles, mask and heavy duty rubber gloves) also, if you have children or animals keep them away!
