I had my 2003 Providence done at Mike's Custom Painting. Located in Indiana. It took over 4 Months to get a date. That's how good he is.
Took 3 weeks to complete. A choice of 5 different colors. He straps everything off the coach. A complete factory job.
It cost $15 K. But the job is super.
I can send pictures if you get with me.

Finally got around to calling Mikes, and they no longer do customer paint jobs, only do paint jobs for new factory built RV's.

So the search continues

also just called Xtreme paint and graphics in Nacogdoches and they do not do full repaint anymore. So I am talking to them about doing 1 side at a time.

Hmmm, how does that work?
Do you wait a while & make another appointment?

Well Dave based on the quote I got I might as well buy a new RV.
I asked for one side, clear coat at the top of the RV all around, and a few spot clear coat repairs on the other side.

Estimate was $19k

But I will go back to them to review the specific's and see if we are on the same page for the job.

Navarro's Paint & Body shop in Algodones Mexico. Not far from the Yuma crossing. Just be prepared to wait for an available opening, they tend to book up way in advance.

I second Navarros. Send them a picture and what you want. They do top notch work. 2 years ago I sent them a picture of what I wanted on a 38' Monaco and they quoted me 13 to 15 Thousand. Sold coach and got a newer one. Was just down there and they don't seem as busy.

Thanks for the feedback on Navarros
I read a long post on the IRV site and the guy said he had to get on the roof of his RV and move electrical wires up so his wife could drive the RV down the street as they were too low and would have caught his AC units

Did you guys encounter any of this ?

I would contact them and ask them. Everytime I go to Algodones I walk down and see what they are painting. Must get them there somehow.
