My 12 year old blue stripes turned brown several years ago, so I'm now

....

Does anyone have experience with this, and how did you get the stripe in
place? Ideas from people that have never done this are also welcome, as
I doubt there are many "stripe replacement" experts, and they might not
be reading RAS.


You guys have *way* too much time on your hands.


When you have a 12 year old trailer with 120,000 miles on it, what are
you going to do? I've replaced 3 sets of tires, one set of brakes, one
tongue, both taillights (with LED units), glued and re-glued the carpet
pieces, and a new axle is on it's way. That leaves the stripes!

Maybe I should've done the stripes at Albert Lea, where I definitely had
*way* too much time on my hands.

Don't you have blowholes to clean or something ?


Already did that in March (not sure which year, though).
