    2017 Isata 3 exterior care question

    Are decals on the Isata 3 (2017) applied to the outside of the surface or are they clear coated over? Asking to see what wax we need to select whether we have to deal with a vinyl decal or if we are waxing over a clearcoat. Not sure if the owner's manual states this, but that is in storage...

    Puncture in exterior of overhead cab

    Recent rainstorm brought down a large pine tree on top of our RV. We had relatively little damage except for a couple of smallish puncture holes in the rubber roof, but the one that concerns us is the puncture on the overhead cab. I have been scouring the posts and the library for suggestions...

    Exterior LED accent lighting

    Looking for ideas for exterior LED accent lighting. I'd like to light up the underside of our coach with LED strip lighting. Perhaps attach to the frame or bottom of the storage bins. With so many brands out there, which ones are most widely used and hold up well to exterior conditions?

    Exterior storage compartment dimensions?

    Does anyone happen to know the dimensions of the exterior storage compartment located in front of the pass-through basement? I just bought a new BBQ grill, and I'm wondering if it will fit in that compartment. Our 30DS is in storage, so I don't have access to measure it right now. Thanks!

    Slide delamination of exterior floor covering

    Forest River uses a thin black film over the exterior side of some slide-out floors. This thin film has a tendency to exfoliate from contact with the plastic rollers. Over time, this can expose the wooden floor of the slide to the weather, and if not caught soon enough, can cause the wood to...

    exterior paint or wrap

    I have a 2015 Prime Time Sanibel 5th wheel. Of course it is now about 5 years old and maintenance and decals are becoming a real labor, much work to get it and keep it looking ok. My unit is a 3601 and is about 40 feet long. Does anyone have any experience with either painting or wrapping...

    What kind of a screw mounts the exterior storage lockers locks?

    I have a 2011 Georgetown 378 that I'm unable to lock the water locker. The key only turns part way and won't go all the way to the left. I don't really relish leaving it unlocked. I was trying to either swap it for another less important cabinet or get it repaired. The two screws that appear...

    Good evening all. Wondering if anyone uses any specific exterior safe chemicals for cleaning off the sides of their unit and what those might be.
