Source for matching contact paper

I have a 2008 Cougar 278 RKS, and the vertical trim on the rear side of the slideout was ruined by water damage. Pressboard, damn near just cardboard, with what looks to be glorified contact paper. Anyone know of a source to get matching vinyl to put on the replacement wood that I have already assembled?

As Joepk stated I wood try trek wood.com. They are a little expensive but have a lot of replacement parts etc. for Keystone.

If you're speaking of the "luan paneling" surface, it's a vinyl sheet that's applied during manufacture. It would be difficult (but maybe not impossible) to find. If you're looking for "contact paper" to cover wood molding, then you might check WalMart, KMart, Big Lots or almost any hardware store with a "Contact Paper" display, any of which should have something that's "close" to the color/grain. Keep in mind that fading has occurred in your trailer, so ordering the "factory replacement molding" from Trekwood probably would not be the same "color" as what your trailer (even though it's only 8 years old) "weathered" to its "fine patina"

So trekwood.com was a bust. They said it is no longer available, and I would have to pick something from the 2015/2016 lines that was a close match. Not helpful at all. As far as Lowes, Home Depot, and Wally-world, while they have contact paper, they only have one or two faux woods, and dark oak isn't remotely close. I may end up having to stain it and hope I can get it close enough. Damn, so much for a "quick finish" to this job!

In new trailers the upper cabinets are one color and lower cabinets are another color. Seems that kitchens are different colors from the living room cabinets, yet they are all in the same room, often butting against each other. Have you considered using molding that is painted a "close match" to the wall paneling rather than trying to match the cabinet facings?

Maybe a "contrasting" color would work? Thinking outside the box, you might be able to come up with a "better than new" color scheme ???

Just a thought......

Look for a company in your area that does wraps on vehicles and or boats. They should either have or be able to get just about any color material. I had to repair a small area of damage, and found a local company doing wraps on commercial vehicles. They had some trim pieces that matched. It is self adhesive and will last for years. Most RV manufacturers are using the same material.
