We have camelot 2004, and it,s black in front and gold in back. I noticed that the paint is fading or it looks like something is rubbing off the paint on the highest spot of the roof front. Could the weather beating on the high spot possibly cause this?

Any resolution to this problem?

On my rig, I'm pleased overall with the full-body paint ... but I have noticed that the clear coat topper is not consistent all around. It may be that your upper-front black color is fading because the needed protection (clear coat) is thin or missing up there. Time to start waxing!

lekhuset.......You're getting oxidation from the sun beating on that area. They all get it at some point unless you garage the coach or cover it all the time. It's like a cancer. You can continue to frequently wax it or sand it off and have the clear coat reapplied. You're probably getting it elsewhere on the upper edges where the roof rolls over the sides.
