Who can I hire in Texas to polish my 30' Excella

My 1996 30' Excella's paint, decals & clearcoat all looks old and faded.

Can the decals etc & clearcoat be restored? Or:

Is the answer strip and polish?

Who has had experience with a business they would recommend to do this work for me?

I am located in the Rio Grande Valley near Edinburg.

I don't know if there are any down in the "valley" but in the Hill country there is a buisness that I've passed a few times and they've always got quite a few projects in the yard.

Vintage Travelers Aistream Restorations
832 N US Highway 281, Johnson City, TX 78636
(512) 395-7858

I have not stopped to talk to them and have not heard much about them one way or the other.

to answer first part of question, yes the clearcoat and stripping can be restored. The go to people for that are in Ohio I think
http://pandstrailerservice.com/

Im guessing here but think the restore would cost more but add more value than a polished trailer, just my opinion though.
