Prime Time isn't any different than countless others that used and are still using colored gel-coat. My grey Heartland went bad and they covered the front cap and painted it when it was 2 years old. Now the rear cap went and it was painted on my nickel. I looked at a new Cedar Creek and found they still use gel-coat. When I called the factory to see if they would pay to paint it WHEN it goes bad they said they will cover it for the first year under warranty which to me means they would buff it out. Nothing said about painting it though. They also claim they have a new gel coat product that isn't supposed to fade that they started using on the 2015 models. I didn't think the last ones were supposed to fade either...I was offered a reasonably good deal on a 2016 Cedar Creek but the fact that they won't go with painted caps unless I spring for the expensive full body paint is a deal breaker for me...One less new Cedar Creek 36CKTS they will be selling.
