2022 Winnebago Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The 2022 Winnebago Vibe

Welcome to the era of "Adventure Chic." In 2022, Winnebago wasn't just building campers; they were building lifestyle accessories for the "overland" crowd. Whether you were piloting a Revel through the mud or a Solis to a trailhead, the color palette shifted hard toward the tactical. With a whopping 24 colors in the database, 2022 was the year Winnebago went all-in on the earth-tone revolution. We're talking about a sea of Kalahari Beige, Carbon Bronze Metallic, and enough shades of gray-from Dark Spiral Grey to Mineral Gray Metallic-to make a battleship look flamboyant. It was a sophisticated, muted time to be on the road.

Paint Health Check

Here's the cold, hard truth from the spray booth: we are firmly in the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, you could practically sand a car with a brick and still have paint left; in 2022, the robots at the factory were programmed for "efficiency." That means they applied the basecoat and clear coat with surgical precision-and extreme thinness. While it looks like a million bucks on the showroom floor, that factory finish is brittle. Because the layers are so thin, a single rogue pebble on the I-95 can punch straight through the clear and the pigment, leaving you with a nasty rock chip that's an open invitation for moisture. If you've got one of the darker metallic shades like Charcoal or Dark Brown, you might also start seeing the clear coat feel the heat in high-sun states-keep an eye out for "checking" or tiny spiderweb cracks in those high-stress zones.

Restoration Tip

When you're fixing a chip on a 2022 rig, you have to play by the "Thin Paint" rules. Do not try to fill the crater in one shot. If you "blob" the paint, it'll shrink as it cures, leaving a visible divot or, worse, a bump that'll never level out. Instead, build your repair in thin, patient layers. Apply a tiny amount, let it flash off, and repeat until you're just a hair below the surface of the surrounding clear coat. This mimics the factory's multi-step process and ensures the repair actually sticks to that slick 2022 finish rather than just sitting on top of it like a scab.
