We're having the same problems. I've even got bubbles under the decals. When the dealer started to replace decals, he noticed these bubbles were also under the skin. Keystone has said they will replace my skins this spring.

Army Guy, are you talking about delamination? Do you have the filon sides or gel coat. I have not heard of any problems of this type. I hope this is not going to start being a problem.

I have a 2001 and the decals did not peel on the edges until I used a buffer last year.
I think it is a case of vinyl shrinkage over time.
I have been thinking of having it airbrushed on like the motorhomes do.
I saw a unit this summer that had removed the front decal and you could still see the whole design just without color.

I'm on the 2nd seto f front decals also. The 2nd set is also in need of repalacement. Same problem as you all have described. However this time I will take them off myself and I an going to have an RV repair shop that does paint work paint graphics on the front and clear coat over them. Then just keep it waxed like the rest of the unit and no problems.

Our previous fiver of a different brand was 7 years old when we traded it and while the decals were showing a little age they weren't bad. Now I have one with decals that look like crap after 2 years. Not good advertising for Montana. Who would consider buying one after seeing the decals on a 2 year old Montana?

Wow, all of this is discouraging. Our previous unit was a Fleetwood, and after 6 years the decals were all still perfect. I hope this doesn't happen to our new unit but if it does I will go to full body paint.

My unit is a 2001 model.That sits outside 24/7.Only now have I noticed one decal starting to peal away.Its the one near the back big window on the side.Doesn`t look to bad from far away.Up close you can see where its pealing.i`am thinking of just removing it and maybe put in its place a nice mural.Reading all the other posters I feel lucky that this is just starting to cause a problem.
