Ask us anything about the process! We learned a lot the hard way.

This is the 3rd AC motor we have replaced over the past 7 years. Learning how to take care of your rig and how to make repairs yourself is by far the best way of saving money on the road. Plus you learn how everything on your rig works in the process!

3. Rustoleum paint works great and is cheap. We spent $350 for a 32' RV. That's for paint, rollers, sandpaper, tape, and acetone.

4. It's a lot of work but 100% worth it

Let us know any questions you have about painting an RV or if you're thinking about tackling this project!

Last bus we painted we used rattlecans. Rustoleum sells a handle adapter that snaps on the top of any rattlecan and is the only way we've found to get a good finish. That's how we've repainted the cab part of the RV and pretty impressed with it. For the body of the RV we're using a foam roller

This is our 4th rig we've painted. 3 skoolie bus conversions and this is the first RV. We've had great success with Rustoleum in the past it holds up great and can take a beating. There's definitely a lot of sanding and prep work that goes into it and it can be tricky to get a good final result.
