Premier Paint SOLD
While here at Entegra factory Service talk in the lounge was that Jayco/Entegra was selling Premier Paint. Yesterday while in a discussion I asked and it was confirmed that Patrick Industries ( owner of Precision Paint ) purchased Premier Paint. I do not know if the name will be kept or not nor what if any effect it will create.
Just thought I would post as an FYI .

Things keep getting more mixed up everyday. I had probably the worst paint job ever put on a $300,000 MH by Precision Paint. It was so bad we refused delivery. The Precision paint jobs must have been bad for many that Entegra purchased their own paint shop.........now it's being sold to Precision!? I just don't get it.

I thing Entegra only bought it in the first placed because Precision was overbooked and was not getting them out in a timely manner. Precision could not get permits for any more paint booth space in Bremen because of concerns about air quality on the city council. Hence Entegra bought the shop in Elkhart and started painting some of their own. It never did fit with the operation and Precision could have more paint booth room in Elkhart ......so......now they do, and likely dedicated to Entegra work. All JMHO

If you are looking for a great better than factory paint job or repair, Xtreme Paint and Graphics in Nacogdoches, TX is the place. Got severe rock damage in Idaho on way to Summerfest at Big Sky, MT. So did other did as well.
My service shop recommended Xtreme Paint and Graphics. Had a two month wait, but the finished product was better than factory! Factory job had some crinkles and runs. The folks that own Xtreme did all the production painting at Foretravel, and decided to do things there way. They are a Prevost authorized repair center. They repainted the entire rear cap on my 15 CS even though the insurance company did nit quote repainting the entire rear cap. I was simply amazed at the color matching and Graphics! I highly recommend them!

Another paint shop to look at is the one that NIRVC (AZ) uses. Ultimate Collision in Peroia, AZ. Sikkins had a nation-wide contest and they were rated 3d in the country. Also, excellent body work.

Is Premier and S & S the same? Last year while at Entegra they had S&S, but our bad paint job went back to Precision for repair (a lot of peeling and bubbling). We are now seeing a lot of swirls on that repair.

No, S&S is private but Entegra uses them some for warranty work. Premier is the facility that Entegra bought in east Elkhart to paint new coaches and they have now sold it to Precision.

Oh, I was told S&S was owned by Entegra and while at Precision I was told by the (then; last year) owner that they were bought out by another company, but do not remember the companies name. Interesting how these businesses bounce; thanks Ann n Gene.

I THINK that Precision did change owners but not names last year. Kind of hard to keep up with the players in the changing landscape!

Whoever owns what, I hope they do as good of a job as some of the aftermarket companies. It is amazing how many are back at Entegra, when I have been there, for paint on new coaches, including me...twice.
