RV-Other Maroon (933622) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This shade was a signature choice for the 2008 Holiday models, offering a deep, wine-heavy red that gives a large coach a sense of weight and sophistication. It is a mature color, far removed from the bright reds seen on sports cars, designed to look regal under the sun of a desert highway. Since your Holiday has been on the road for over fifteen years, the original finish has likely endured significant UV exposure. This means the maroon might have lost some of its factory depth, so a fresh touch-up will immediately bring back that rich, saturated contrast that defines the brand's aesthetic.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means the paint contains tiny particles designed to reflect light from different angles. Metallic maroons are notoriously sensitive to how they are applied. If the paint goes on too thick, the metallic flakes will sink and "stack," making the repair look darker or muddier than the surrounding area. The goal is to get those flakes to lay flat and even across the surface. Because it is a dark, pigment-heavy color, it is excellent at hiding small imperfections, but it requires a steady hand to maintain the shimmering "flop" that makes metallic paint look three-dimensional.

Best Practices

You can typically find your paint data sheet tucked away on a placard inside a kitchen cabinet door or on the wall of the bedroom wardrobe. Before you spray or dab RV-Other Maroon (check for code 933622), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Shaking is the only way to ensure the metallic flakes are fully suspended in the mix; otherwise, you will just be applying tinted resin. Test the color on the included card to verify the flake density matches your current finish. When applying, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling in one spot. Give the area plenty of drying time between light layers to ensure the color builds up naturally without sagging.
