Just a note on our 1972 "Melmar" on a 300B chassis. I'm wondering if anyone else has an aluminum exterior. Ours is basically coated siding that had oxydized to the point that it was showing patches of bare metal. We finally decided to try painting it ourselves rather than pay the price of a professional job. After sanding the surface to remove any loose or chalky material, we used the Original Kilz (alcohol based) and then painted it with high quality Behr house paint. It turned out great and has held up perfectly for over 2 years and several thousand miles. Anyone else tried painting their rig?
