Has anyone else experienced bubbling of the cherry-wood-grain wallpaper stuff on the inside of Campsite trailers? If so, has anyone successfully replaced or repaired this stuff?

Can you post a picture? Is it the Azdel? Or the tape that they use to join the seams? Does it feel hard, or like a film? I'm wondering if the graphic layer of the Azdel has delaminated...
Yes! Pictures would be great!
And now I know why we ordered our 21BHS with full aluminum interior. ;)
We have 3 pieces of Adzel in our camper and they are under the beds.

I'm glad that is still an option - not. >:D
The cherry azdel in my 2013 21BHS is fine so far.

Thanks for your responses to my inquiry. The surface (wood grained) material seems to be separating from the underlying material. This is on a 2015 14db purchased new this fall and taken on one three night trip. The pictures above show several examples of the issue, which is present on maybe half of the woodgrain panels so far. The other "Adzel" panels which are not wood grained seem fine.

[/p][/quote]I think he's refering to the cream colored wall panels.
I believe the Azdel composite panels are manufactured and an outer decorative skin is applied later to the composite panel. The "finished" panels are then delivered to LL. Even though this would be a supplier issue rather than a LivinLite issue, ultimately LL is responsible.

[/quote]Yikes!!!! Thanks for taking the time to get these.
I've private messaged you to get you some info about our warranty department so we can get this fixed.
Thanks again!
Update.
Don N at Livenlite has indicated that they could replace any affected panels if I could bring the trailer to the factory and leave it for a few weeks. My selling dealer (Nature and Me RV in Traverse City, Mi) has also indicated that he should be able to replace the panels locally and that it probably not be necessary for me to bring the trailer to the factory, which is about 200 miles away. As the trailer is currently in storage my dealer and I made a plan for me to bring it in in the Spring to scope out how much material would be needed to effect the repairs then take it from there. He (my dealer) assured me that they would do whatever is required to make things right to my satisfaction.
I will do another update later.
