[VAC] Re: Need esthetic feedback, HELP. Pass onto wife if this is not your arena.



AH!  I'd try to find a zolotone combination that fits
your design style - not original, but tough, and
original enough - 

I know that Craig Dorsey at:

http://www.vintage-vacations.com

uses other types of paint in his SOB restorations, but
as a design major in college, I would suggest you stay
clear of anything that is shiny.  The psychological
perception is that gloss reduces space, and in a space
the size of an Airstream you don't want that.

I recommend light colors, satin finish, and something
that will last longer than latex.
