Surprising that paint on an 05 would be shot. Have you had lots of sun exposure?

I have seen a number of posts about Precision Painting in Bremen, IN. Also, there is a shop in Zebulon, NC that has done a coach for one of our forum members...he was very pleased. Can't remember his screen name just now so you might do a search on Full Body Paint.

Bill Plemmons RV in Winston-Salem, NC has a RV paint booth and has a good reputation. Finally, there is an independent shop near the Tiffin Factory in Alabama that has been noted by some as doing great work at reasonable prices. You might want to check with folks on the Tiffin forum for that info.

Is it the paint or clear coat? CDI who does the paint for Winnebago has been good about warranting their job. Trouble is it has to be done at factory.

We had our 02 journey DL 36G repainted last August by CDI across from the plant. They do all the full body paint jobs for the factory. I can't tell you how happy we have been with their work quality and the easy working relationshi we had with them. We were able to create our own design and color. We did not want a stock design. The cost was great and it was totally finished in 7 working days.
My DW and I shopped for over a year and visited several top named facilities. We became very upset with their prices and the quality of work we saw. Paint should not peel or decal impressions show after such paint work. We found out about CDI while at the GNR. Made the visit and have been happy ever since.
Contact David Nagle GM. @641-585-5900 or dave_cdi@wctatel.net Please tell him Ron & Bren his Texas retail unit sent you.

I would have pictures but I've never been able to figure out how to post them. Give me an e-mail and I will send them to you and answer any questions if I can.

We also had our coach painted at CDI. I second all that was said as they were the most cooperative people to deal with. Top quality and great service.

Dave will give you a quote before driving there.
Needless to say they are not busy now.

All of the outfits mentioned thus far are in the east or mid-west. Any good painting companies in the far west?

I just looked at 2000 Motor home here at ORA that was done by Precision Painting. Wow, what a paint job much better than the factory. On top of all that color, 3 coats of clear coat and it is so smooth it just feels good to the touch. Now all I have to do is decide if this workhorse chassis is worth keeping.
