In recent weeks I've been working on Charlie Browns outside....Painted the Basement doors....Krylon Fusion Plastic 2438 Satin Khaki....
I started painting the stripes too....the bottom stripe is also....Krylon Fusion Plastic 2438 Satin....the middle stripe is Krylon Fusion Plastic 2436 Satin Espresso....and the top stripe is....Krylon Fusion Plastic 2326 Navy.....I think it looks pretty damn good.
Also around the rear window is the Krylon Fusion Plastic 2438 Satin Khaki
Also today I rewired the front A/C to operate the fan in Auto instead of all the time and will do the back A/C next weekend and install heating element in it.....
I will post some previous and new enhancements as I remember all the things I've done and do stuff
That looks great! All these freshly painted rigs are really making me jealous. Im hoping I can freshen mine up this summer with some carefully applied rattlecan magic... She's looking pretty 50/50 lately :( (looks good from 50 feet or 50mph...)
Rattlecan magic is achieved by using a can holder sprayer and by useing high quality paint which lets you adjust your spray pattern as shown below.....Quality manufactures have spent lots of money on their formulas and nozzle technology.
Krylon Fusion works well bonding to the surfaces. I used it on a couple automotive projects. One major flaw I found. It faded terribly after the first summer. I hope they've improved it since then, otherwise, you'll be very disappointed in a short time, especially when the FL summer sun gets on it. My suggestion would to be to use the Fusion as a base and paint over it with regular enamel.
Can I get some info on your side window awning/shades? That is the same exact rig as mine and I see a couple things I would like to add to mine. One is the shades and the other is the hydraulic levelers. I doubt the levelers will happen but the shade I hope will.
The awnings are all A&E the jacks are HWH both were on it when I bought it......thank goodness ;)
As far as the paint if it fades ill keep touching it up....it cant look any worse than before the new paint....as long as it looks good from 10ft away and is clean then its all good :)ThmbUp

Edit
Meaning to say I'D like to see a rig as ugly as mine on this forum NOT implying u have an ugly rig. :)ThmbUp
why I otta....put em up....put em up....
I knew what ya meant.....or did I Hm?
May want to just consider vinyl for the stripes... the newer stuff is 10-15 yr color fade resistant... if applied correctly lasts a long time... I use that plastic fusion on a few things.. does fade but never peels at least....
