My question is twofold...

I removed the upper rear cabinets and wrap-around curtains yesterday and found that the plastic rear shell is discolored and ugly. It isn't damaged anywhere but I have no doubt it's very brittle considering the age. Has anyone painted these things with a brush-on paint intended for plastics? I'd expect that others have done their dash without removing it and I'd like to re-color it as well.

And while we are on the subject of interior re-finishing, is there a product that's suitable for painting over all that woodgrain Formica? I feel like I've been transported back in time to the seventies every time I step foot inside our coach. I have all the upper cabinets out and the amount of woodgrain Formica on them isn't all that much so it could be removed and recovered but then how would I match that to the rest of the interior?

Thanks.


1978 Eleganza II
