Tom, I had James over at Xtreme RV painting in Nachadoghes, Texas do the job.. He use to head up the Foretravel painting, but still paints all the Outlaw Prevost new rigs. He is awsome! We took in down to bare aluminum, and sprayed a base coat, then the paint colors, and two layers of clear. Lots of layers had about 10K and just paint. The 1st layer of clear coat gets sanded down so you can not feel the other paint designs. Then the last clear coat to makes it all pop! We did paint the roof silver to cut down on the heat because I live in Texas, it also was clear coated as well. We took all the hardware of the coach before painting expensive step but well worth it.. the designs are painted not stickers so it has a 4 paint color combo. It took them about 45 days to do. We wanted a clean look but not too crazy.. I like the way it turned out, alot more curb appeal. Take a look at their web site and you can see some of the other coaches he has done. Thanks for the compliments.
