45' of fun

[imported_weekendwarrior]

This is a 2010, 45' rv. The striping was painted on the bus, and clearcoated. After a trip to the Rolex 24 in Daytona, it needed some work.



Befores:

The roof was pressure washed, and polished with Duragloss 501 on an orange pad, and the G110 v2

The rest of the exterior was washed with QEW, and polished with the Griots Garage Buffer, with a Megs MF pad, primed with D300, then using M105 as the polish.

This is behind the passenger side wheels...

Same panel after polishing...

A few more Brinkman shots from various panels after polishing...

Here are after shots outdoors after polishing...

Wheels were washed with QEW, then spritzed with Megs Glass Cleaner. Tires got Hyper Dressing 1:1...

We then pulled it back inside for some reflection shots...

Then, this whole beast was covered in Collinite 476s. After shots (it was dark at finish...inside shots only)...

Thanks for looking!!!

Excellent work. That's a long project, but definitely paid the bills I'm sure. How long did it all take?

Great job Dave! Still can't believe you got the entire thing done in one day. :clap1:

 

[C. Charles Hahn]

That thing is insane! Did you do that with just a ladder, or did you have scaffolding as a platform to work on?

 

[imported_weekendwarrior]

Thanks guys. It took 18 hrs straight. It wasnt bad since they are flat panels. No scaffolding, just an 8' step ladder.

Damn.. that's a lot of real estate!

Nice work!

I've done several 45s before. My arms hurt just looking at your pics!



Nice to see you did the roof as well.

Thanks guys. It took 18 hrs straight. It wasnt bad since they are flat panels. No scaffolding, just an 8' step ladder.

NO WAY I will ever do one again without scaffolding!!! 8' ladder, up and down makes for a longer day! and I will never do one again solo! you can have the help working below you and have him push the scaffolding right to left so you dont have to get down and do it yourself!!!



Props to you man!!!!

 

[imported_weekendwarrior]

I bet on the 19th hour, you rested! :hail:

actually, on the 19th thru the 29th hours i rested...lol



doing one of these is like climbing mt everest...doing it once is enough!

 

[Scottwax]

Wow, just an 8' ladder? My hats off to you, that had to be tough. Last coach I did, at least they had a rolling staircase I could use. Couldn't imagine doing it the way you did. Niiiiiice!

 

[Junebug]

Very nice! So the owner shows off your work at the 5 Star RV park and the next thing you know, you're hiring extra help!!!
