Hello All,
The 1994 Daze is about to get the black paint.   Thank you for the photos and directions  Ron. 
My question is, Is it possible to get the front decal for a Brown Lazy Daze?

LD stopped using the Pomona, Calif decal 20+ years ago, I doubt if Todd has any available but you can ask.
With a good photo of what you want, custom-made decals are available. It would be easier to get a high-quality "Montclair" photo.
Just about anything can be printed on vinyl.

This is a picture of half of my front decal. I call it the 'Puffy' letter style.  Older ones had a blocky tilted left or right each letter alternating style.  I removed the decal when I had the scaffolding up there. Never got around to ordering a new decal.  I can still see the outline on the fiberglass that was protected from wear.  There was a 1" rock hit in the 'D'. The decal was really worn out.    RonB

The seller that DesertDiva mentioned, Canned Ham Decals, has an amazing variety of reproduction RV decals. They even have the classic Lazy Daze crest used on really old models. Why not contact them?

I have a high quality photo of my 1997 brown LD with the logo you want.  I can email it, if you want.

Hello Lazy Daze Painters,
The 94’ Daze definitely needs attention on the two front black faux windows..
Curious if anyone has used a marine paint for fiberglass. Total Boat - Wet Edge?

I am thinking of rolling on the primer and paint.

Yes, lots of painters tape!  Use black primer also. I used spray paint, much harder, especially since it was windy just a little breeze. I'm not sure if a roller would leave evidence.  The hard part was getting up to the 'windows' to work on them.  I covered the hood with a shipping blanket in case I dropped something heavy enough to dent the hood.  RonB

I used Interlux Brightside marine paint.  Sanded first.  Then applied Interlux Pre kote primer before the Brightside black paint.  Sanded every time and used two coats of both primer and black paint.  Used roll and tip method.  Plenty of YouTube videos to show how. 
All waterproof and worked great.  Got it all from Amazon
