Looking to upgrade or repair your flaking and peeling RV couch? This video is for you.

If you have leather style furniture in your RV, chances are you may have experienced the dreaded cracking, peeling or flaking issue that has unfortunately become a common occurrence for many RV owners.

So what’s going on here? Why does the material peel? There are two common reasons why these materials begin to fail.

The first is simply a result of friction and pressure over time due to heavy and prolonged usage. This is typically referred to as wear and tear and generally occurs in localized sections of the material that see the most friction, such as the seat cushions or leg rests.

But if you’re fairly gentle on your furniture, and yet you’re still seeing peeling and flaking, you may be experiencing the other cause of failure, which is a phenomenon known as Hydrolysis.

Instead of a mechanical breakdown of the material due to pressure and friction, this is a chemical breakdown caused by long term exposure to humidity and heat.

So, what can you do to fix your peeling issues?

For localized failures due to wear and tear, you may want to simply cover the problem areas with a leather repair patch.

But if your material has started to fail due to Hydrolysis, it’s pretty much a runaway train at that point and you may want to consider replacing your furniture.

Two of the most popular options on the market for luxury RV furniture are the Thomas Payne line by Lippert and the Charles line by RecPro.

The 1st difference between these two brands is going to be their specific dimensions. The 2nd difference is their available convenience features. The 3rd difference is their overall comfort. 4th is the way they are packaged and shipped. The 5th difference is their ease of installation. 6th is the length of their warranties. 7th is the difference in price.

After watching the video, would you rather have a Thomas Payne sofa from Lippert of a Charles sofa from RecPro?

What features are most important to you?
