Have not heard of those type of bugs, post some pictures of them and of the mess they make so we know what you are talking about. There might be something that the great vendors here have that will work for you.
 
bug poop

thx i will get on that,pictures, i can tell you they are flat with brown and orange markings and the poop leaves a red stain.I havent had alot of success with sending pictures ,but, ill try.if not you can l/u under boxelder bugs w/ poop stains/pictures.Apparently they are quite a nuisance,i just have never heard of them and as we all do ......we want to keep our customers happy and i know an answer and a fix would make this lady very happy and that IS MY PRIMARY GOAL!!!!!!
 
For me, I'd first find out if its metal or fiberglass type of rv, as fiberglass usually gets gelcoat. If it is older with metal body panels, you may be looking at enamel single stage paints instead of 2-stage. Then you can decide the correct products and procedures from there as gelcoats, enamels, and base/clear vary in how hard they are cured.

As well, are you just looking to chemically remove these stains? Or are looking at doing actual paint correction for the customer, as prices and procedures would be different.
 
thx for the reply.im told by my son this is an older camper but as you said i need to go look at it and speak with the lady myself,this seems to be an ongoing problem for her.Shes looking for an answer to her dilemma and what i read they are a nuisance,invasive etc,basically you need to rid your property of them.As for paint correction not looking into at this point or until i find out what age is on this rv.But i will go the extra mile to help out a customer.The worst that can happen is shes happy and the company gets another good refferall
