I'm torn on using decals again. On the one hand, I have a full and correct set for the coach in hand already. If the material is made right, it can last a long time (probably longer than I'll be keeping the coach). Plus, I can put it on myself (I hope) or pay a local sign shop a reasonable fee to do it for me. Having the decals replaced with paint will be a lot more expensive and for us I just don't think it's worth it.
The coach doesn't look bad at all with no stripes but unless I could even out the finish I don't think it's an option.
We used a "magic eraser" wheel to remove the cracked vinyl. We tried the 3M wheel and it didn't work very well. We used a heat gun to remove the intact vinyl. To clean up the remaining adhesive we used Goof Off and followed up with water.
