Big Country, Paint Fading

My 2011, model 3250 Big Country has paint fading at near the top of the front and near the top at the back of the unit. I originally thought it was some of the rubber roof wash that was bleading down. But I have attempted to wash it off to no avail. Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions. Thanks, Dean

Lots of people have had this problem. It's from the gray gel-coat fading. The only long lasting cure is to paint it. There are plenty of semi truck/equipment bodyshops around that will have a paint booth large enough to handle this. I would contact Heartland Customer Service and see if they can help out. If you do a search on this forum under "fading" you will see a lot of info on it. Good luck...Don

Hi coletrickle,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum posting side. The fade of the front cap is cosmetic.
