Paint over cracked decals.
Has anyone painted over their faded and cracked decals? What kind of paint did you use and how did it work?

- I can see repainting faded decals, but painting over cracked decals without proper preparation would look pretty bad.
- I did it to my previous motorhome, 1985 W8innebago. Don't remember the brand of paint because I was more interested in matching the color of the decal, which was maroon. Actually held up pretty well for a couple years till I sold it. I just waxed the decals often to keep them shiny.
- Would you paint over damage on the living room wall of your house? Same idea. It might look okay for a bit, but in a very short time,it's garbage.
- Pretty sure it wouldn't be a good idea. Although a number of folks have removed their decals with rubber wheels and such- same as auto body guys use to remove pin striping- and then polish.
Don't see why one couldn't paint the surface if it is properly stripped and prepped.
