1996 Clear Coat Questions

I have a 1996 30' that has issues with the clear coat on the center front and rear segments and along both top sides, I need to know the best way to attack this issue, I am sure I can find a threat on this topic however I just dont have the time to spend looking. Any input would be greatly appericated.

well..."MAGNOLIA"!!

Wow, thats close, I am in the Woodlands!

Generally when the clearcoat begins to peel and turn white it is time to strip and re-coat. I have not had this done, however there are several companies that do this that advertise in Airstream Life. It is my understanding that it costs around 100 bucks a foot for this type of work.

May want to check with Randy at North Dallas RV. I go up there for work as Demondtrond is not really a good AS dealer.
