Muff,
I agree that plywood is a bad choice to skin a camper. Apparently, so does the camper manufacturing industry. I don't even think its a good choice to use inside because it can so easily be compromised, even with just high humidity, especially when subjected to a lot of vibration and movement. Worse yet, sometimes it won't show any signs of damage until its really bad.
Also, full disclosure, I used to work at the local Line-X dealership. Its the only spray on liner I've got real experience with & I may be a little prejudiced towards it. We did a lot of other things like boat decks, motorcycle frames (mine, love it), rims, rocker panels/fenders, gunstocks (mine, love it), pop-up camper roofs, industrial equipment, cell phone cases, boots and the owner's Jeep. We also did the bottoms of all the plywood booths used in the remodeled Chili's restaurants. I can't speak for all of them, but Line-X is extremely tough stuff. It would add a great deal of impact, abraision and weather resistance, and look really neat. My Goldwing gets tons of compliments on the finish.
