I have seen photos on the forum of some trailers with the interiors covered in some sort of quilted fabric. It reminds me of what was used in the cargo compartment of C130 aircraft for sound deadening and insulation. I can't find the photos today, but does sound familair to anyone?

Chris73 has a 13' Minit and he's described the interior as being diamond vinyl with insulation. He's got a link to some pics:

Any "MINIT" Owners?

I have seen photo's of Compact Juniors and Compact II's with this type of interior.
Tom Trostel has one:

james...
Are you planning on being buried in your egg? That's a different sort of modification I hadn't thought of. You could be camping for eternity. Not a bad thought.

Not a bad idea. but it was the quilted material that reminded me of the fabric that they use in coffins.
Don't think I could camp in that.

There's always automotive headliner material. Foam-backed cloth...

headliner

You can also buy it with a vinyl surface.

The interior lining in a current Escape is automotive headliner. The upper surfaces are a soft cloth surface, and the lower surfaces are a more durable vinyl. I've only seen it a showroom setting, but it looks both pleasant and functional to me.

Information is good. Lack of information is not so good, but misinformation is much worse. Check facts, and apply common sense liberally.
