CV65500 - Brown-748555K Fleetwood Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your motorhome carries a lot of surface area, and this deep earth tone was designed to make that massive profile look sophisticated rather than bulky. Since this color was specific to 2004 models, your Fleetwood has likely spent two decades weathering highway winds and campsite sun. This brown is a workhorse shade that excels at hiding the fine layer of road dust that accumulates after a long day of driving. It provides a grounded, high-end appearance that mimics the natural landscapes you are probably visiting.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means the paint is packed with tiny flakes that catch the light to give the surface depth. Metallics are less forgiving than solid colors because those flakes need to land evenly to look right. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the metal particles will bunch up and create dark, blotchy patches known as mottling. Before you spray or dab Fleetwood Brown-748555K (check for code CV65500), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This ensures the heavy metallic flakes are suspended properly in the liquid so your repair blends in with the rest of the panel.

Best Practices

You can usually find your paint code on the weight and specification sticker located inside a kitchen cabinet door or on the driver-side door frame. Once you have the right spot, remember that distance and movement are your best friends. Keep the container moving at a steady pace to avoid puddling. If you stop moving while the paint is flowing, the metallic flakes will sink and ruin the effect. Test the color on the included card before you touch the motorhome to ensure the shade matches the current state of your aged finish. Work in a garage or the shade to prevent the sun from shortening your drying time too much, which can cause the paint to texture.
