I can think of many reasons to paint... not many to polish an entire camper...

To paint...
less glare
less elbow grease
less sunburn (yes I know this is incorrect)
I could go on

To polish...
Looks cool for awhile.

Its really up to whatever floats YOUR boat. :)

nice camper tho :thumbsup:

Aw, paint it yellow and white, Shasta colors. They look nice with the windows also polished.

That is one of the colors combos I'm thinking of.
I have plenty of time to make that decision.

Or maybe blue?

If it were a brand of trailer that is not as popular then do what you want with it. Shasta trailers are known for the recognizable wings, as well as the original paint themes.

Other canned ham manufacturers have tried different paint schemes depending on how the painter felt the day it was painted.

Paint it to look like a Shasta! Not like some other canned ham.

I personally like it without the paint. Most of these are painted, especially if the aluminum isn't in good shape.

Yours would be more unique left the way it is.. 8)
