The ONLY fix for a Jayco front cap oxidation is to strip the decals, sand and then paint the cap then clear coat and install new decals. THAT is what Jayco pays to do when the 5th wheel is under the 2 year warranty. Doug
Agreed. If the oxidation is so severe (not moderate) that within a two year warranty period it needs all that work, well, IMO, there's no excuse for that. It's clearly poor quality materials/construction. That said, there are no photos provided. If lightly buffing the 7 year old gel/clear coat gets you through it and into the substrate, then what Doug (Jayco) suggests is appropriate and the sales price should be appropriately (substantially) reduced should you decide to purchase it.
