I have a 2007 CT31RL and this unit has 2 doors. The trim around the window on both doors, has a color of dirty cream and everything else on the unit is white. It looks like the trim came off of a 1960 model trailer. My question is: can this be painted to match the rest of the unit and not peel off in time or do I need to purchase new trim??? This was a new unit when I purchased it, and this trim just looks like (You Know What). I enjoy reading all the info on this forum and have received much help from all of you. Thanks Robbie

I had the exact same problem, not only with the door trim, but also the kitchen vent cover. I removed the window trim (the window glass will come out and you will need to reseal it and the window trim once you are done and have the window reinstalled). I used RustOleum plastic paint (gloss white) from Home Depot and painted it per the directions. It has been over 6 months and the trim looks as good as new! I also painted my exterior shower door to make it look like new...

Good luck.
Lewis

Ditto to what Lewis said. I painted those items on both my '07 unit and my '10 unit. I didn't remove the window trim, just masked it off with newspsper and blue painters tape. Still looks nice and white after a year. Don't understand why they can't put some uv retardent or different material to keep this from happening. Almost every brand you see has this problem.
