??? Full Body RV Re-Paint Job, 15 yrs old, its time ???

Hi All,

It's about time to get a full body re-paint job done on our large 2005 class A.

Over the years I have read about getting a full body Re-Paint done in Mexico.

It would also stand to reason that getting a full body re-paint job done in a state like Texas or Florida would be a wise choice, as Texas and Florida seem to be have the most activity in high end RV sales.

Of course it would also seem to reason that selecting a paint shop that would accommodate our comfortably staying in our rv during this lengthy experience would be a wise choice.

So... those of you with direct knowledge on this topic... youall with direct knowledge that have experience with repainting a full body rv paint job...

???

!!! thanks in advance !!!

    About 20 years ago I had a partial paint job done in Mexico. Great work, reasonable price, very happy.

    15 or so years ago I had a full paint of a bus conversion done. I did all the prep work and had it painted at Maaco. Many will look done their nose at a Maaco paint job. However they had a large enough paint booth and the painter had 30 years experience, was an artist with a paint gun and could paint complicated pieces of equipment with no runs!

    I upgraded from their standard paint to a high quality paint and the job cost me $4000!! I sold the RV after about 10 years, the paint still looked good and stayed in touch with the buyer, paint was still good last time I talked to him.
