Painting your trailer is not the only option for updating the exterior. Two other commonly used alternatives are replacing the siding itself or using a vinyl wrap to create your own unique look. Replacing your aluminum siding is probably not as difficult as you think, and it will repair all the dents and dings. New siding from Hemet Valley RV comes in just about any pattern to match your trailer. It is pre-painted and can be used as-is or as a base for custom painting in your favorite color or with graphics. Bare aluminum siding is available from Airparts Inc.
A wrap can be used to create virtually unlimited graphics, like the one shown here, or to cover a trailer in a solid color. Wraps are often used on vehicles to promote businesses and are a very viable choice if you are building a vintage vendor.
PONCHO- 1973 Argosy. Philip and Luci felt their trailer was a little bland for their taste. They opted for a vinyl wrap with a Serape stripe design. They are thrilled with how it all turned out! They initially thought about painting the stripes but did not believe it would turn out the way they wanted it to. The vehicle wrap worked great and was under $2000, which was even better.
