Brisbane RV & Motorhome Paint Restoration Specialists
Faded gelcoat. Heavy oxidation. Old decals. Ghosting. Road grime. Years of Queensland sun.
Your caravan or motorhome doesn't necessarily need repainting. It may just need the right restoration.
Pitts Automotive Studio specialises in RV and motorhome exterior paint restoration, professional cut & polish, decal removal, oxidation correction and ceramic protection across Brisbane and surrounding areas.
The Queensland Problem
Queensland's sun is brutal on RV exteriors.
Over time, UV exposure, weather, road grime, tree sap, contamination and old decals can leave a caravan looking faded, chalky and tired.
A normal wash won't fix it. A quick machine polish won't always fix it either.
That's where proper RV paint restoration comes in.
At Pitts, we assess the condition of the exterior, determine what can realistically be restored, then use the appropriate correction process to bring the finish back.
The Result?
A caravan or motorhome that looks cared for again.

Our RV Services
RV Cut & Polish
Professional machine polishing for caravans, motorhomes and RVs suffering from dullness, fading, light oxidation and surface defects.
Every RV is different, so we quote according to size and condition rather than pretending every vehicle needs the same process.
From $1,100

Oxidation & Gelcoat Restoration
Heavy oxidation can leave a caravan exterior chalky, faded and lifeless.
Our restoration process is designed to remove or significantly reduce oxidation and restore as much gloss and clarity as the surface safely allows.

Decal Removal & Ghosting
Old caravan decals can leave behind adhesive, staining and a visible outline long after the graphics themselves are gone.
We combine careful decal removal with machine correction to reduce adhesive residue and decal ghosting wherever the underlying surface allows.

Ceramic Coating
Ceramic coating is only as good as the surface underneath it. That's why our coating process begins with proper preparation and paint or gelcoat correction.
Once applied, ceramic protection can provide enhanced hydrophobic behaviour, easier maintenance and long-term protection against everyday environmental contamination.

The Pitts RV Paint Restoration Process
We inspect the caravan or motorhome and identify oxidation, fading, decal ghosting, contamination and other defects.
The exterior is thoroughly washed and chemically decontaminated before correction begins.
We establish the appropriate correction process before committing to the entire vehicle.
The appropriate combination of cutting, polishing and finishing is used to improve the exterior.
Where selected, the restored surface receives a suitable ceramic or protective coating.
The completed RV is inspected before it leaves.
Why Choose Pitts?
Your caravan isn't a giant car.
The materials, surface area, gelcoat, decals, roof systems and level of UV exposure all create different restoration challenges.
That's why we don't treat every RV like a standard detailing job.
We focus on bringing the existing exterior back rather than simply making it shiny for a few weeks.
Not every scratch or stain can safely be removed. We'll tell you what's realistically achievable.
The better the preparation, the better the final finish and protection.
Your quote is based on the size, condition and required restoration process.
From Faded to Finished
Every paint restoration tells a story.
Old decals removed. Oxidation corrected.
Gloss restored. The finish protected.
Every vehicle shown here has been restored by our team in Brisbane.

Common Questions
Not always. The achievable result depends on the condition and remaining thickness of the surface. We'll inspect the RV and explain what can realistically be achieved before work begins.
Yes. We can remove old decals and adhesive residue, then work on reducing the visible ghosting left behind.
Sometimes. It depends on how long the decal has been on the vehicle and how much the surrounding surface has weathered. Some ghosting is permanent and can only be reduced.
A quality restoration can take a full working day or more depending on the RV's size, condition and required correction.
It can be, provided the underlying surface is suitable. We recommend restoring the exterior first rather than coating heavily oxidised or contaminated surfaces.
Yes. Pitts specialises in caravans, motorhomes and other RVs.
Our focus is private RV owners and restoration work rather than high-volume fleet production.
