State Stickers

We are looking for some suggestions on where to place our decal map of states visited. My first choice is on the side of the slide out . My concern is could it be rubbed off by the rubber seal when the slide is extended/retracted.

I have seen many of the state maps mounted just as you are considering and have yet to really notice any damage on them from the slide seals. I would guess that as long as you keep the rubber pliant by using slide seal conditioner (we do this once a year on all of the slide seals) that there would not be any noticeable friction to pull the decals off. Now, with that being said, we bought a set of the state decals back when we had our TT prior to the Montanas and to this day have yet to apply them to any of the three rigs.

Ours currently is on the slide, has been for about 18 months, so far, all is well.

Prior to that it was on the inside of one of the cargo doors, no issues there, except that the cargo doors were replaced and we lost the map.

My personal preference was the cargo door.

We had a map on the slide 3 years! No scars! No softening of the rubber seals either. Hubby's motto: If it ain't broke, why fix it!

The new map is on the inside of entry door! No room with all the Quartzsite Circle pictures on the slide!!! LOL!!!

You can almost see the states on the slide in this photo.



We had them on our previous Monty. As long as they were on there we didn’t have any problems with them coming off. However, the outline of Alaska came of a little. I was concerned about the individual states coming loose where they looked like they were catching on the edge but they still hung in there. They were on there for about 3 years before we traded it off.

I don't have a map yet, but I would want it so everyone would see it and say,"WoW look where they have been!"
