Trillium repaint

Thanks very much Fiberglass RV for the endless information on how to fix my awesome camper. I used Inerlux Pre-Kote primer, and three coats of interlux brightside. I'm very happy. My pictures show before, and after. I did everything solo. The reason I painted was that the previous owner hit something causing damage and did a poor job fixing it. I hope you enjoy. Thanks again everyone.

Awesome job! I'm looking at painting my boler in the next week or so- mind me asking what 2 colors you used from Interlux?


Thanks!

Looking sharp Chris !



I'm starting my prep for painting -- how many gallons of paint did you need? Does the primer need multiple coats?

I'll be honest. It's been one year and I'm not sure but here's my guess at quantities. I would check the coverage on the can to be on the safe side.
I know I only did one coat of primer. I think it was two quarts. I know for the top I used one gallon, I have lots left over. For the blue on the bottom I think I used 2 quarts.

Sorry I can't be more specific. I wish you the best of luck with your paint job.
