Painted the faded and cracked decals

[marjoa]

Well, from my previous post #23 I am now finished painting my old faded & cracked rear and drivers side MH graphics. I did a video of how it was done for those that are interested.

Looks great!, I did the same thing on my last RV, which had badly faded decals. I just sanded the loose parts off, found spray can colors that were a close match, and went at it. The most time consuming part was the masking. I had some small, straight stripes that I replaced, there is a company online called Stripeman Graphics that others many colors and widths of striping tape. I actually had people ask how I kept the rig looking so good, because from 10 feet away, you couldn't tell that it was just decals that were painted over. Good job on your rig.

Looks great. Nice job.

Thanks for making the video to help folks out

It’s amazing how well the 1/4 inch tape bends and prevents bleed through. I also used an exacto knife to trim where it wouldn’t bend enough. Like for the lettering.
