Your right ron.dittmer, we used a cnc cut spray mask(a big one time use template) to make sure all the lines are exact and the symmetrical. The perfect corners and edges are all thanks to careful preppers that nip and tuck tape in all those spots. I prefer using an automotive seam sealer under the paint like you see in the bed of a truck, that way it is uv protected by the paint and lasts forever. Clear sealer is common on top of the paint and it looks just fine. A job like mine will take a good shop pretty much a full work week to complete. I probably have pics of my rv in different steps of the process, I'll look tonight. 8k is a bargain to paint a used unit - New units don't have the decals and caulk to remove before you can start prepping, that can easily eat a whole day! The more colors involved and the wilder the design, the more it costs. Mine is a very busy design with 5 colors, most would be a bit cheaper.
