I have a small sign shop in Winters, Texas and we use Rapid Remover all the time for removing graphics. I found that using the wheel to remove vinyl doesn't always work for large graphics. I have used it for small vinyl items like names or small logos. I'm a small shop but I do pinstriping by hand and large graphics for motorhomes and trailers that can't get the graphics from the manufacturers. We have a 30' Highland Ridge ultra light trailer that we use for our road trips and we are getting our house ready to sell so we can buy a class A motorhome to travel full time in. I have been looking at the Alfa brand and for ones in the 2001 to 2006 range.

We love the Alfa. Lots of storage and comfortable. They are ahead of their time. If you get one make sure and join the Alfa groups on Facebook. There’s a lot of information that’s really helpful. Thanks for watching!

What shop?! I’m in Angelo and could use some of your services

@mrKeithGrayoldguy Жыл бұрын

Your rig looks some much nicer with no decals. That’s a great look.

Thanks, this video was the beginning of a total paint job for Rosie. Stay tuned and thanks for watching!

Pretty cool! We are looking to buy a used 5th wheel and I will remove the graphics as you did. Looks great! I used to work next door to Alpha when it was in Chino CA before they closed it down.

That’s cool you worked near that shop. Good luck with your decals. Thanks for watching!

Wow! Boy do you have some patience. Great job!! I attempted to do the same thing on my boat years ago and ended up getting new vinyl stickers to go over the old..It turned out great.

Thanks, this was beginning of me repainting the entire RV. Stay tuned for more videos on the complete process.

I have turned Rosie around to paint the front and other side. There’s plenty of room in front. Bring your rig by and we’ll take care of it.

My boat has the same issues with cracked and aged vinyl striping. I dread the work but am going with the heat gun method. Thanks for the video!

Plain colors look better than the crazy color schemes they sell today. Would've thunk there would be some sun fade shading differences after removing the decals. Nice work. I bet that took some time and effort.

@RoamingWithRosie Жыл бұрын

I like the less busy paint designs better. Unfortunately there was some ghosting where the decals were. I’m in the process of repainting old Rosie. Make sure to check out our upcoming videos. Thanks for watching!

I found some colors (burgundy-black)came right off while (silver) was a battle. Took 20+ plus hours to do one side of trailer. Putting on graphics of planes ,bears,fishermen and landscape. Thanks RWR

I have the "protective" rear fender decals and are cracking and look horrible on my 2012 tacoma, I just bought a heat gun to remove other decals on my truck so I'll definitely use it for the rear fenders as well 👍🏽

@RoamingWithRosie Ай бұрын

Once I removed all the decals I decided to never put decals on again. Any graphics I put on will be painted. You can buff and polish paint. Thanks for watching!

@lindabarcia9764 Жыл бұрын

Are you planning on adding any other Graphic stripes or decals back to Rosie? She looks nice all white but she also looks a little naked. I know that you can’t get the details from Alfa but I believe there are decals you can get from other manufacturer that would make her look really cool. Just wandering.

@RoamingWithRosie Жыл бұрын

A lot of the repainted Alfas are going with a solid color with only a few graphics. But, for Rosie, you'll have to watch and see though. This was step one. We'll reveal when it's done. 😉

awesome info, about how long did it take you to remove all the decals?

@RoamingWithRosie Ай бұрын

About 4 hours. Thanks for watching!

@luwonnaoakes6375 6 ай бұрын

Will this method work for corrugated metal siding?

@RoamingWithRosie 6 ай бұрын

It should, the idea is to heat up the decals to get them hot enough to come off. Thanks for watching!

How did you address sections where the gel coat is peeling?

@RoamingWithRosie 8 ай бұрын

I didn’t have any areas where the Gel Coat was peeling. I did have some areas that needed repair. I repaired the damage with Bondo Glass and Bondo spot putty.

How long do you think it took to remove the vinyls and adhesive?

@RoamingWithRosie 2 ай бұрын

It took about 6 hours. That’s removing the decal and then cleaning off the left over adhesive. Thanks for watching!

@khalilshakeel2581 7 ай бұрын

Is there a video for putting on new stripes

@RoamingWithRosie 7 ай бұрын

No, there are videos repainting the RV. I am going to paint graphics on in the future. No more decals they just end up fading and cracking. Thanks for watching!

Same thing I'm going to do.@@RoamingWithRosie
