Full-season, all-weather protection engineered specifically for Class A motorhomes in the 20 to 24 foot range. The Gold Shield 5L uses a laminated multi-layer construction with a micro-porous film core that blocks liquid water while letting moisture vapor escape -- keeping your paint, seals, and slide toppers dry without trapping condensation underneath.
Most budget RV covers use a single- or dual-layer woven polypropylene shell that breathes poorly and degrades quickly under UV exposure. The Gold Shield 5L stacks four polypropylene PLUS layers on top plus a micro-porous film layer -- five layers total where the sun and rain hit hardest. The sides drop to three layers (two polypropylene PLUS plus the micro-porous film), still far heavier than most competing products in this category.
The micro-porous film is the key differentiator: it creates billions of microscopic pores that are too small for liquid water droplets to pass through but large enough for water vapor to escape. That means rain, snow melt, and hose spray bead off the outside while humidity generated by temperature swings vents outward rather than pooling under the cover and promoting mildew on your roof membrane or exterior graphics.
Four polypropylene PLUS layers plus one micro-porous film layer resist UV, rain, hail, tree sap, and bird droppings while remaining breathable.
Weighted buckles and adjustable straps cinch the cover snug against the RV body, eliminating slack that leads to billowing, flapping, and abrasion wear during wind.
Heavy-duty zippered access panels let you enter the motorhome or retrieve items from storage bays without removing the entire cover.
Reflective strips increase low-light and nighttime visibility of your stored RV -- useful in driveways, campgrounds, and storage yards with vehicle traffic.
The cover is sized to a 24.5 foot cover length to provide full overhang front and rear on rigs up to 24 feet. Elastic hems at the front and rear corners pull the fabric tight around the nose and tail caps to prevent wind lift. The slip-seam design -- seams oriented to shed water rather than collect it -- helps the cover conform closely to the RV's body contours rather than standing away from curved surfaces.
A ladder cap is built into the rear section to protect the cover fabric from being cut or abraded by metal ladder rungs, which is one of the most common failure points on generic covers. Gutter protection reinforcement shields the fabric where it contacts the rain gutter rails on the roofline.
The tight weave and micro-porous film combination prevents road grime, pollen, tree debris, and fine dust from reaching the RV surface -- reducing how often you need to wash and polish before and after storage season.
Built-in roof vents allow passive airflow through the cover even when all entry panels are zipped. This cross-ventilation prevents the greenhouse effect that can build up under any sealed cover on warm days, and it keeps relative humidity inside the cover closer to ambient rather than letting it spike and trigger mildew growth on rubber roof membranes, caulking seams, and slideout seals.
The cover is designed to accommodate up to three rooftop air conditioning units. The top panel is cut and finished to fit over standard Class A roofline profiles with multiple AC shroud humps. If your rig has an unusually tall or wide aftermarket AC unit, verify the cover height specification (10.08 ft) clears your specific configuration before ordering.
Installation is tool-free. Starting at the rear, unfold the cover over the roof, then pull each side panel down and work the elastic hems around the front and rear corners. Thread the buckle straps under the chassis and cinch. One person can install this cover, though a second person makes roof-level positioning faster on taller Class A coaches. The cover ships folded and packed in the included storage bag -- use the same bag when removing the cover for travel days.
No slip-on RV cover is rated for hurricane-force winds. In severe storm conditions or extended high-wind exposure, supplement the buckle straps with additional tie-downs or move the RV into covered storage. The adjustable buckle system is designed for typical seasonal wind loads, not sustained gale conditions.
You can wash the cover by hand or in a washing machine. For hand washing, install the cover on your RV, rinse it with a hose, then use a cloth and multi-purpose cleaner to scrub. Rinse again and either towel dry or let it air dry.
For machine washing, use the largest machine available, set it to gentle mode, and wash with mild powder detergent in cold water—avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Rinse the cover twice to remove all detergent, and always air dry.
