I need your contact info! We have a 1978 Trillium that is "the ugliest thing in the campground" according to my wife. We want to paint it and would like to find out how much you would charge? We can definitely bring it down to Cowgree!

hi gerry, i think i've seen your ad on kijiji

i'm really not planning on putting a lot of $$ into my ventura, but that metallic paint job is very tempting, beautiful work, looks like a little jewel now. i came across a little two tone copper/silver trailer online recently, so gorgeous....

this place scares me, lol. this was supposed to be a relatively inexpensive getaway thingy for me.

I live in Calgary. I'd like to paint my tug. If I did the prep would you be interested in spraying it?

Yeah. That was probably our ad. Not cheap. But the camper is a great investment. Use it for 5 years. Get all of your money back.

For sure. We want to work with people who are investing a lot of time into their little campers.
