I think it is all done on the Fleetwood assembly line. I took the tour a year ago , they mentioned how they put extra care and another coat of clear on Americans. I really doubt they would do a repaint, but I could be wrong. That be said there are several rv painting shops in Elkhart area.

I've not, nor do I know anyone that has, but they do have a large paint shop at their service facility. I know they'll do warranty work and repairs there. I suppose they might do a full coach repaint. It would be interesting to know, and if so, at what cost.

Interesting to know they will do it. The assembly line runs through several paint booths. I remember they mentioned that the Americans got extra clear coat and hand sanding.
