NH700M - Black Fleetwood Touch Up Paint

The Look

Since your motorhome has been braving the highway since 2015, the finish has likely seen its share of sun and road debris. This specific shade provides a deep, premium aesthetic that grounds the massive profile of a coach, making it look modern rather than dated. Because it was featured during a specific window for Fleetwood models, it represents a particular era of high-end, full-body paint schemes where contrast was king. It is a bold choice that demands a clean surface, as dark tones like this tend to highlight every speck of dust or water spot once the sun hits the side of the vehicle.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means it contains tiny flakes designed to catch the light and provide depth. The challenge with any metallic is ensuring those flakes lay down evenly. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the flakes will cluster and create dark, muddy patches known as mottling. Conversely, if the application is too thin, the repair will look dry and dull. Before you spray or dab Fleetwood Black (check for code NH700M), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure those metallic particles are fully suspended in the resin.

Best Practices

You can usually find your paint configuration sticker inside the bedroom wardrobe closet or on the driver's side door frame. Before starting your repair in the garage or a patch of shade, test the color on the included card to ensure the shade matches the current state of your aged paint. When applying, keep the container moving at a steady pace to prevent the metallic flakes from pooling. Use thin, even layers and allow plenty of drying time between each pass. This patience prevents the paint from sagging on the vertical surfaces of your motorhome and ensures the finish stays flat and professional.
