Forest-River Motorhome Touch Up Paint (69 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Forest River didn't just stick to the basics; they recorded a massive 69 colors for their lineup. They really went for it, moving past standard neutrals into a palette that sounds more like a dessert menu or a dare. From the flashy Orange U Tempted and White Chocolate Tricoat to the rugged Columbus Russet and Tundra, your motorhome was clearly designed to stand out at the campsite. Whether you're rocking a classic metallic or a bold pearl, there's a lot of personality packed into those fiberglass walls.

What to Watch For

Finding your paint code on a Forest River can feel like a scavenger hunt. Your first stop should be the Federal Certification Tag (the sticker with your VIN and tire pressure) usually located on the wall next to the driver's seat. If it's not there, don't panic-check the inside of your kitchen cabinet doors or the bedroom wardrobe. Forest River often glues a "Paint Code Sheet" in those spots.

Keep a sharp eye on the front cap and the roof radius (where the side meets the top). Because these rigs live outside, the sun tends to bake the clear coat in those high-exposure areas, which can lead to some flaking or fading over time. If you spot a tiny rock chip on that front cap, jump on it quickly! Catching it early with a touch-up pen stops the elements from getting a foothold under the rest of the paint.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Forest River colors are heavy on the metallics-like Silky Silver or Gold Metallic-you need to give your touch-up bottle or pen an extra-long workout. Shake it for at least 60 to 90 seconds to make sure those tiny metallic flakes are floating evenly in the paint instead of huddling at the bottom of the bottle.

When you're ready to apply, remember: dab, don't wipe. Use the very tip of the brush to drop a tiny bit of paint into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. If the chip is deep, it requires patience. Do one thin layer, walk away for 20 minutes to let it "tack up," and then come back for a second layer. Building it up slowly prevents the paint from sagging and gives you a much cleaner finish than one giant, messy glob.
