Looks good! You can see another 94 Bounder on my profile. The kangaroos are gone as well as original stripes. New ones are painted on and the bottom half has also been painted. When you are ready for more work, paint away the dated bottom color as well.

Nice!

I know the old Bounders are not the most attractive art form but I like keeping mine dated and clean.

Real Bounders are brown

That is REALLY NICE!!

Another tip from and old auto restorer and painter. use fine line tape it comes in 1/16 on up for making sharp corners. 3/16 works good then tape out from there. the fine line will leave a nice kleen crisp paint edge. available at any auto body jobber.

Thanks Jay D,

I went to a local paint shop. I told them I knew nothing and needed their guidance and products to do the job. They sold me 1/8" vinyl tape for the tight radius. It worked as you indicated.

Wow. Awesome job. May your travels reward your hard work. And late to the game, but heat helps remove almost anything (from caulk to decals to road grim, etc.) Heat as in hair dryer not heat gun:)

Good idea!

We'll head to Branson on 9/6/18 for a long weekend and then on to Naples, FL for our Granddaughter's wedding. That should keep us on the road for a month.

Does that work for you, or shall we plan more? GRIN.......

You're not that far from Branson, come join us for our monthly rally.
See rally schedule on web site listed below.

Good thing I allowed 90 days for this paint project. Between the rain and life's other obligations, I'm just winding this project down.
I still have to apply the reflective tape, do a final clean up and wipe on the RMP. The gel coat is completely gone from the front cap, sides and rear.

The wife and I have been semi-living in the MH for the last 10 days, as our sticks & bricks bathroom is being remodeled. Have to allow for those bladder calls during the day & night.

This will be my last post on this project.

Safe travels
Richard
