How to Make an RV Bra Cover

Protect your RV, motorhome or trailer from rocks and other road debris with a bra. Also called a front cover or RV mask, an RV bra attaches to the front of your RV or trailer with snap fasteners. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to pattern a cover using Dura-Skrim® Patterning Material for a well-fitting and snug cover. We chose Softouch, a durable, abrasion resistant fabric with a soft, non-abrasive backing to protect the surface of our RV. Watch our tutorial to learn how to sew a protective front cover for your recreational vehicle.
