Default Delamination

On a sunny day when looking down the side of the Hi Lo it looks "rippled" is this what is meant by delamination? Any cure for it?

It sounds like it. Here in AZ it is very common due to the >110F temps. Very common with older RV's.

If you truly have delamination than the only proper repair is to take it to JR as they have the proper lamination equipment.

What does that process entail and is it expensive? JR is a distance from us any other type of place able to do that?

Ugh. Water causes it right? What is the actual process tho? Is the siding separating from the wall causing the rippling? Is it common in older RV's because of the type of material used? How new would it need to be to avoid that? (Thinking for future purchase perhaps)
