Decals
The Decals on the front and rear of our 2008 Big Sky are peeling off, I have tried clear laquer on and around them but they continue to peel they are looking a mess, any suggestions, thanks in advance, Almoff

Alan-- I don't think there is a solution to your problem except for new decals. Go to the Search engine at the top of this page and key in decals and check out all the post of them. There are quite a few and I'm sure you will hear more from others and where you can order the decals or contact Keystone about them!

I just had a manager at a local RV repair shop to tell me to wipe them down with WD40 once in a while. Do not know if this works or not. They are vinyl and will start to dry out over time.

We just bought a 2009 Big Sky and the graphic on the front needed replaced. I called Keystone because the dealer was having difficulty buying the replacement because it was not on Burlington's site yet. I called Keystone and they asked I send in a pic which I did. Within 12 hrs I got an email that the graphics where ordered and will be shipped to my house even though they where out of warranty. Free of charge. It has only been 10 days so do not have them in hand yet. So if I where you I would call Keystone and go that route first. We took them off with Goof off and a plastic scraper. From start to finish took 3 hrs to get them off and the glue. Not easy.

Use a hair dryer & plastic scraper. Then remove glue with googone or WD40. Wash with soap & water. I did not replace, do a search many problems with decals.

DONT SCRAPE TO HARD!! Use a heat gun or hair dryer and a product from 3M called General Purpose Adhesive Remover. Done rite all will come off at once.

If and when ours begin to peel I think I will clean up the area and not replace them. Recently I saw a 5er which had been cleaned completely and painted to match TV. Very attractive candy apple red and white ... not a lot of red .. no straight lines ... looked good.

Since I use WD40 to remove old mastic I don't think I would place it on decals. May not hurt them but if it gets behind the decals around the edges it is going to have an effect on their adhesive. Jim
