I'd rather just have a plain paint job, maybe a two tone, but, none of this graphics nonsense.
I really don't understand this at all...



I much prefer what the new Minnie looks like.

I need to take a pic of the dual rear axle diesel pusher at our storage facility for y'all the next time I'm out there! It's stark white and has no color/stickers anywhere on it.

It would throw me off a tad, ya know? jmo

I just traded in my Jayco and one of the questions asked at the beginning of the process was if the decals were all in tact.

Go with what you like, right?
That one looks nice since it has a two tone paint job and corrugated siding to keep it from looking like a blank slab.

That top one is definitely overdone. What were they thinking (or smoking)?

While I agree, some of the RVs have gone overboard, i honestly think the blue stripes looked better on your trailer than not.

My trailer has color accent stripes that just happen to match my truck, so I would have no interest in removing my decals.

To me the best looking MH I have seen was a coach conversion. Lower was bare Al and upper was white.

That two tone paint job on previous page is exactly what I would want. Nothing fancy, NO decals.

My hubby has something against ALL stickers. He removed everyone inside our RV, then leaves it to me to remove the residue... not always easy!

Have you tried the goo-gone? I want to pull some of mine too but when my wife started to pull on one there was a bunch of adhesive. Didn't know if goo-gone would hurt the finish. We also tried to pull the warning on the vent above the stove and it pulled all the black paint off with it.

WD40 works great to remove the adhesive.

They'd be cheaper, but what do you think holds these things together?

Actually, they charge more to keep the decals off! There was a member on here who ordered a new camper last year I think and he wanted all black on the roof...A/C cover, vent cover etc. He also wanted minimal or no decals...all was extra money but was available.

You can buy decal remover............spray it on and watch the decal raise as it works. DO NOT leave this on too long or you will take off the paint also........

goo-gone works, so does wd-40, what didn't impress me was the 3m wheel, it without care will damage the surface.
