I used a mid range price peel and stick tile on our camper remodel and it worked great. I made sure the walls were very clean and I put a few drops of super glue on all the corners and they have stayed on perfectly! I also did a peel and stick vinyl flooring. It started to come up when it got hot in the camper. I pulled them all up, put some construction adhesive on them, put them back down, and they have stayed in place! I live in Mi, where we have hot summers and cold winters.
I’ve heard the peel and stick tiles can pull away from the walks but extra adhesive as you’re allowing them does the trick to prevent this.
We did this in a pop up and the tiles were thicker and heavier to look like stone.
They have baked in that little camper to over 100 degrees and froze in less than 25 below.
They’re perfect!
We recently upgraded too, to a 5th wheel! We’re in the process of our cosmetic remodel.
I subscribed for number one reason as I’ll love to watch your process!
Number two-I just love anything camping with families!
Good luck!
I used the stick on tile like you, but primed the wall with contact cement first and let that dry. I live in Colorado so we have similar weather. Nothing has come loose. Down side was you had to position it right the first time. Took a little more time to make sure the tiles were plumb
It’s all about prep. Too many diy’ers do no prep and then wonder why things don’t work.
Thank you for this!!
With peel n stick tiles always always always use a pressure roller to remove air pockets ,
I used tile and stick on back of kitchen area worked great been up for two years now you need to remove whatever was on your walls for it to adhere to them. Also sprayed gorilla spray glue on top of the sticky glue the peel and stick has worked fine has not come off and I live in NV where temperatures are like Utah Also my floor did have that issue, but you should take off the Formica flooring you have then you just get down to wood. I put my flooring the wrong way that is why it is lifting in areas. but overall, it's fine. I will change this eventually.
Your videos are awesome...great teacher you are no doubt
I am inheriting an old 2006 26ft pull RV so will be following. Thanks for the tips and the comments below.
That’s exactly what happened to me . Ended up with a 2006 rv. Started looking at instagram rv remodels and just started ripping stuff out without knowing anything about rvs. I didn’t even know how the electrical works 😂 now 3 years later I’m going back to learn how the rv even works. I made so many renovation mistakes. Thank goodness for CZcams .
Thank you for letting us know!
What was the name of the black tar/ aluminum tape you used?
you sound just fine. thx for the info.
Definitely looking forward to the wave... And still looking forward to the adventure van, whenever that episode comes out! ☺️
It will come out with the next episode in a week!
@@Mullenthemaker If I had read a couple of comments I would have known about the van! 🤣💕
@@Debrajoy video just released!
@@Mullenthemaker what's the tape you used?
Hi Jesse, if you see this me and my friends were thinking about renovating a trailer for a fun summer project before our last year of college. What would you say we should avoid the most in renovation
drinking family vacation (roadhouse brewing) on a family vacation...nice...got by sub!
Did you sand the flex seal before putting the tape down?
I am rebuilding my Rv from the top to the bottom and I am using all real material so I won’t have to worry about anything.
So how much did u Invest in it?
Link for rv roof tape?
5:16 It looks like your fiberglass TT has delamination/bubbles on the front drivers side....which means leaks from above. I hope not for you. Will you address that in your next video?
Good tips for the Vintage TT. I have used the stick on tiles for the walls, live in Utah, and have not had a problem. The stick on wallpaper, however, did not work.
Just wanted to say awesome job and help the algorithm!
Thanks!
Ehhhyyy, nice upgrade. Hope you keep the smaller trailer, it's just got so much character
Yeah it’s been great for us! We will be keeping it for now. Deciding what to do with it!
I'm not the brightest bulb in the room, however, I would love to see your finished van project! I need to do one to live in full-time because of the high rents in California! Thank you so much and I am really enjoying your videos! I don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse to have a husband who can do everything! 🤣💕
I live in Idaho!
Is this an 18ft and did you pull this with an F150?
Yeah sure did
How much does the camper weigh you think?
Didn't like the ceiling product
Doesn't a RV have a engine from what I grew up with RV has an engine campers don't
Never use ANYTHING STICK ON in a trailer. And don't use hot glue either. Ya know why? It gets very hot in a trailer and all that stuff will melt and fall off or peel up. By the way you did EVERYTHING completely wrong and backwards. You have no idea what you are doing and should not be telling others what to do.
