Trillium Renovation

[Trill136]

Great thread Randy.

As a "new" owner of an "original" Trillium, I suspect that it is one of the first series built, and, it is in need of a significant amount of TLC.

Lots of good info. and ideas so far. I will undoubtedly be following some of your procedures in the near future.

If you need door hinges I suggest you order them now because it looks like it takes a couple of months to get them .....

This reminds me my old Trillium 1300. I really loved that little FGRV. I now have a Trillium 5500 but would like to revamp the exterior a little. You are doing a very good job!

I just did my Trillium 4500 1981 with Zep, floor wax,the 3 stages. The stripper, the sealer and the floor finish. Looks just great.
Product bought at Home Depot.

Butyl tape. It is available from most RV places. you don't need more then 1" wide for a Trillium.

There is some debate about butyl tape. Some is less sticky then others. I am told that if it pulls out to a thin line, it is the good stuff. When I bought it, the guy asked if I wanted the messy stuff, or the other stuff. I went for the messy stuff.
