Looks great and the white will help brighten up the inside of the trailer. Just because they didn't use white boards years ago doesn't mean you shouldn't. It's your trailer fix it to suit you and your needs. Marty www.txmcook.blogspot.com Shasta Blog

They use this product in restaurant kitchens it is called FRP. Once it sticks to the glue you are committed.

I got on more piece up today, I didnt go all the way to the floor since the galley will be there, and it ends right where my bathroom wall will be at.

I love it. My Wife is also insisting on White Interior. She is from South America where only poor people leave wood. That wood look is for those who cannot afford paint. Like Cabbage. One would never eat cabbage unless they lost everything and lived under a bridge.

I see your point, brokevet. I love antique furniture, but my mom would only have light colored, new furniture because all the furniture they had growing up was old and dark. There is something to be said for a light colored interior in a small trailer. It really brightens up the place.

Your trailer is turning out amazing! I love the LED lights, they look so sleek and modern against the white. I hope you don't mind me imitating you, this look is exactly what I am going for!

I just saw your shower/toilet combo, may I know where it is that you found it? I've been looking around with no luck

the link to it was in the thread, I got it from RV parts nation, but they dont have it listed on their website now, several other places carry them but the price is a lot higher, try searching for "RV shower pan" or part # M2835TW, i'm not sure that is my exact part # but it is one like mine.

We got ours from an outfit in northern California. It was $200. We decided to do a porta-potti instead of a toilet, so it just sits on top (we had to build a base for the raised part as it's just plastic. It's about 20" wide and 32" long - JUST fit into the Hamlet's closet ('59 Compact).

Looks good to me. My interior is painted off white; Mr. HOW hates it, but I like the lighter tone, it seems to make the trailer feel bigger.

Most of the wooden boats that I worked on were a combination of white paint and stained wood. Lots of marine varnish. They look good together for some reason. This is going to remind me of my boat building days.

I think the white looks so clean and crisp great idea. i agree do what you like it's your world. i do like some old fashion touchs. after all it is old. thanks for the ideas.
