We’re still waiting for rain to test our re-installed window and caulking work from last weekend, but I rationalized that I could safely start putting the material on some<\/em> of the walls–plus I just needed\u00a0to do something<\/em> to move this big project forward!<\/p>\n

We really weren’t wild about using a spray adhesive, and I posted in a fiberglass RV forum this morning to see if there was some sort of paint-on adhesive that might\u00a0work better. \u00a0There didn’t appear to be anything really designed for this type of material, so we decided to use the spray–and it was okay.<\/p>\n

Ideally, I would have cut one huge piece of fabric to go beneath the rear window and up each side, but I just wasn’t sure how well we could manipulate such a large piece. \u00a0As a result, we\u00a0put\u00a0one big piece below the window:<\/p>\n

We were able to pull the bed platform towards the front of the trailer a little, but it\u00a0fits in there too tightly to take it out! \u00a0We had to crawl over it, which made all of this\u00a0a little awkward. \u00a0I purposely left the fabric a little long at the floor; I’ll trim that–or not–later. \u00a0Once the bed is finished, you won’t see it.<\/p>\n

Next, I cut a piece to go on the left side of the window. \u00a0While the seam between the upper and lower pieces isn’t awful, I may put a “seam cover” strip over it when I get to that stage.<\/p>\n

First impression, though? \u00a0I LIKE the color (a silvery white) and the feel of the fabric,\u00a0and I think it’s going to look really, really good!<\/p>\n

Before doing more, however, we have GOT to get some really sharp scissors; this stuff isn’t all that easy to cut!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
