Paintseal is it worth it.

Good afternoon what are your thoughts on Paintseal product for caravans and motorhomes. The price for an Eriba Troll is £500 but is it worth it? Has any one on here had Paintseal carried out on their Eriba?

As no one on the forum seems to have had it done, why not ask the dealer for a couple of referees, see what they feel now.

The dealer will be on commission, so the price is negotiable.

What could I do with £500 if I didn't spend it on having someone polish my Eriba.

It will make no difference to resale value after X years, so....

I have had Paintseal applied to a previous caravan and can say that I would absolutely not bother again! Lots of things that you could spend £500 on with much greater benefit. I bought the service on the advice of another caravan owner who subsequently got their money back but I couldn't be arsed to deal with the company.

We were offered paintseal on our new eriba. Decided against it after researching a few forums which suggested it wasn't worth it.

You’d be better off with a clear vinyl wrap to protect the paintwork.

Be sure to tell the fitter to make holes for the windows and doors.

Be mighty stuffy otherwise, and a fart would linger something wicked.
