[VAC] Airstream Skin



I have seen reference on the list to the fact that some of the newer (non vintage) coaches do not lend themselves to polishing the exterior skin because a different aluminum was used compared to earlier trailers. When (which year) did the new skin material change to the "non-polish" type?
It presumably would be easier to fix minor scratches and scrapes from normal travel and use if the skin can be polished to remove minor surface blemishes.  Thanks.
