- We finally paint the exterior of our camper... 3 years after renovating the interior?!
It was about time.
Enjoy this timelapse video of our efforts. Took all weekend but 100% worth it.
Now the Roe Rig really shines 🤩
That look nice
Nellie is just glad to be there with you.
You really did a great job inspires me to paint mine thank you😎👍🇺🇲
I like the Lisa Frank Idea LOL My husband and i are renovating a 98 Layton 24’ 5th wheel. You guys made it look easy LOL
So funny, I forgot I had mentioned that :D Have fun with your renovation, I reckon it will be much easier with a relatively newer 1998 model!
I like the door ... stands out
Nice work! Looks good!
thanks buddy!
Definitely looks better than before! You guys could have shown a before and after picture. Gotta take care of home sweet home!
In the long run, are you glad you went with the hammered black on the trim? Where else did you use it? Anywhere you wish you’d used a black paint without the texture of the hammered? Looks great
Wow
Great job, how did it hold up three years later?
Looks good but I like to straps
This looks just like mine. I'm going to paint soon. Trying to figure what paint...oil...acrylic...latex.
Did it only take two days? Brilliant job
muito legal parabéns pela pintura ficou excelente, só ficou faltando mostrar o interior do trailer
Sim!
Hey. Love the video. I’m helping my dad fix up a 1995 prowler. I know you can’t find the exact paint you used but was it house paint?
Hey there! I did end up finding out what we used :)
We used an exterior-rated Valspar (likely we used the DuraMax line) white paint.

Basically anything exterior rated, that claims to adhere to metals or vinyl, is likely to be just fine for your purposes. Of course if the budget allows for it, I believe there are "premium" levels beyond DuraMax that could have longer staying power.
As for the black trim, I had already been using Rust-oleum hammered spray paint in black for many of the interiors, so I maintained consistency with the exterior trim as well.

Best of luck!
What kind of spray to put the paint in did you use? Looks amazing thinking of spraying mine.
Hi there! I don't think we have the device anymore but we bought a middle of the line handheld paint sprayer from the paint section at Lowe's. I bet it was the Wagner brand like this one:

Looks so nice! We are about to paint ours, if that’s possible, can you please put the link for all the paint you used? Tks
Hello! I am sure you've already completed you project by now, but I asked and we used an exterior-rated Valspar (likely we used the DuraMax line) white paint.

Great video! I read that you used the Valspar exterior paint. Now that it's been over a year, how would you say it's holding up in the elements? Thanks!
I would love to know this too....esp the trim....Is it chipping? It looks fabulous
Why don’t TH-cam people answer these questions? 😑
@@icanonlyimagine7626 Wondering the same thing myself 🤔 I haven't painted my camper yet but when I do will be using a Sherman Williams exterior DTM that my brother in law used on his metal garage door. It's holding up beautifully... fyi Hope this helps
@@KKing-rf4ix thank you!!
Are you able to camp at private rv parks that only allow newer rvs, was wondering if painting one will let you visit?
That is a great question that I don't have an answer to. You'd probably have to call those parks and ask directly. We never hauled ours to a park, so we never had to answer to anybody's standards 😉
Great job on the paint job... looks brand new :) ... We remodeled and painted ours to. We just subscribed to your channel. #kapken
Thank you! We'll check out your channel as well. Remodeling campers can be a ton of work, but so much fun as well. And everything is miniature so no project is too excessive, right? ;-)
What paint did you use? Also what did you do to get it ready for the paint?
Hey there! I apologize that we didn't keep good record of the paint we used, I'm assuming you're asking about the white exterior. We did seek out an outdoor rated paint with primer built in, and we got it at Lowes but I can't remember what brand or line it was. To prep for the paint we scrubbed the exterior down with soap and water & let it dry but we did nothing else crazy special!
What kind of paint did you use?
Hey there! Wish I could point you to a specific product but we did this a year ago, and neither of us can recall exactly the paint. We looked for a quality exterior paint, and likely ended up with Valspar - but I couldn't tell you the details. Sorry! :-)
How was the door made?
Hello, friend! The original door was in bad shape & not so secure. Scott used a wood slab he sourced from a friend. He cut it to fit (adjusting for expansion/contraction of the wood) then stained + sealed. It was a project in itself but really added character, we thought! :-)

Did you make your door?
Yes, the door was handmade! Scott enjoys woodworking and used some scraps from a family friend's stash to put this together. The door that came with the camper was in really bad shape.
@@arauth200 make one for me all buy one
Very nice looking paint job!
What kind of paint gun? Easy to use? I’ve never used one ??? Yikes
Hello!
I had to check out Scott's tool area to find this: it's the Wagner Flexio 2000 sprayer. It's great for household uses! It is corded, so it's plugged in for use. Very easy to use, in my opinion!

So sorry for the delayed answer. We wish you the best in your painting adventures :-)
