Default Rialta roof material

I have a 1995 Rialta. The roof does not leak but looks bad. White streaks run down the sides after rain. I was told that the Rialta's have fiberglass roofs but the rounded edges of the roof along the sides of the Rialta look like they might be a metal because where its warn it appears silvery in color. Does anyone know for sure what the 1995 Rialta roof is made of and what would be best used to improve its looks ?
Another RV owner ( not Rialta ) says he uses Mop n Glow once a year and his looks great .

Thumbs up

Your roof material is aluminum as are the side walls. The transition is fiberglass between the cab and coach body. Most owners have black streaks coming off the roof and that is road dirt. A good product to use is found at $ store that removes the black streaks. LA's Totally Awesome cleaner will remove black stripes from exterior.

Mike,
Thanks for the info. That is exactly what my thoughts were but wanted to know for sure.
