I have a question that I can't figure out.  This MH has a Fiberglass nosecone and the sides are the Winnebago sandwich.  This unit has never been painted. At present it is 2 distinct colors.

Which has faded-- the fiberglass front end or the plastic sides?  I was thinking about some paint matching in the future.

The Gel coated fibreglass is notorious for fading, chalking and just not liking sun exposure at all. The Aluminum painted sides are good for a long time with minimal upkeep. Just be happy you have a classic with minimal Gel Coat on it. I make my living polishing these things, and I own a all aluminum one for a reason...

Thanks for the links, I sort of figured someone on here had done it.
