RE: [Diesel-RVs] Re: 96 Monaco Dynasty

We have 3M vinyl shield on the front of our '03. We had it put on when we
bought the coach 4 1/2 years ago. There are no "stains" from bug mashes etc.
There are a few rock dings, but not that many. We have no complaints with
our 3M shield, and absolutely would buy it again!

I've had diamond shield on two coaches, one I removed because it was a mess
on 2001 Dutch Star (gravel trucks, sand trucks, love bugs-Florida,
butterflies-texas and assorted other debris that hits it and squashes or
mashes on it or otherwise stains) -- it took a lot of careful trying to
remove it -- very careful and time consuming and can be costly if you have
to repaint the front of a coach....

so, the original cost (estimated $1000 or therabouts) just to put on Diamond
Shield that may become a disasterous mess, doesn't sound real good to people
who have had our experience.

It's on the coach we have now and we need to "get it off" and am dreading
the process again.....(03 MountainAire Diesel) Still have photos of "before
and after" the removal from our 2001 Dutch Star we traded in ....
I had one motor home (Holiday Rambler) with no Diamond Shield, no Bra and no
mess ....
If you have a "bra" - don't know where you are but if near Lazy Days in
Florida/Tampa area, Wades RV services located inside Lazy Days make
sunscreens and stuff and put the very finest backing on bras and make them
to fit tight on front.....they don't wear your paint, but you do need to
remove if rains and let everything dry out...the only bad thing about a bra,
if you have generator and run it, the bra helps hold heat in and it can
blister paint around generator area.
personally, I'd just as soon not have any of it (bra, diamond shield
etc)...if keeping coach, can have repainted for less than $700 or 800 every
3 or 4 years if want to... (Man From Mars and other places can do for
reasonable price unless you got "50,000 color combos on front")
