$1343.00 for the 3M protective mask on front that will turn yellow long before the paint goes bad than a $1000 to remove and touch up damage paint from removing.

I would rather deal with a few rock chips before the 3M mask ordeal.

Well if your buying used I guess that's not your cost but the 1st owner sure had to pay that.

The RV is 10 years old. What do you see wrong with the front Cap??????????????????? Doug

I have looked by I'm not sure what your referring about? little help...

Tinmac is claiming your unit has the 3M front cap clear mask and that because of that your front Cap PAINT is ruined and the 3M mask is defective, NOT true. I have worked on scores of Motorhomes with both 3M and other clear masks. As long as the paint was allowed to cure correctly before the mask is installed, there are no real problems with clear mask. IF the paint is not allowed to cure(dry) for a few weeks, then clear mask installation can cause problems. But I do agree, paint chips and bugs are not a big deal. Why pay for that clear mask? Doug

I was referring to the cost of the 3M and the issues some have had with the 3M and cost to remove and sometimes damage to the paint as well, the motorhome in pics looks good, maybe its been removed or soon it will start to turn yellow or get mold under the 3M that many have complained has happened. Fact..

In the invoice the OPer has posted shows the 3M was added and cost over $1300.00.

I suggest if buying new to avoid the 3M cost and possible problem down the road and use the money for something else.
