I didn't paint the fiberglass at all. I just cleaned it up really well. I painted the Ensolite with a brush.

I have a Trillium. Except for the top bunk, my furniture is all molded fiberglass. Not removable. I primed and painted my ensolite. It worked just fine. A two inch sash brush and a roll of green frog...

Wish it came it quarts too. I have enough left to wax a gymnasium!

I live in San Antonio, so I'm used to about 60 percent humidity. 10 percent must feel like an easy bake oven.

It's probably more accurate to say that I worked in sections and rinsed as I finished that section. Honestly, I didn't even read the can. I used BKF like I would if I were cleaning the bathtub. :u My...

Zep'd

After reading every post on the forum, I took the plunge. I Zep'd the Hobbit Hole this week. Here's my method:

I got rid of the vinyl backing. It was old and nasty. I used the same cloth all the way around. I wish I could say how much I used on the beds/gaucho. I had a 10 yard bolt of unbleached denim. I...

I did this.

I own a '77 Trillium 1300. Your gaucho looks identical to mine before I renovated it. Under the top cushion is a piano hinge screwed into a plywood bed board on top of the fabric. Place the gaucho in...

Sorry, I've been out of touch.

Mark, 6'3" sounds about right. I didn't go out and measure. It's icy here. And it's NEVER icy here. My guy definitely has to duck. It's his excuse to sit at the...

Thank you so much, Pam.
Camping in my brother's rig is a way to honor him in our lives. The paint and sewing really helped us to claim it as our own, too.
It's nice to be here!

Yes, I painted the Ensolite. I cleaned it with TSP, but it was so dingy and spotty. There were holes where rusty curtain rod brackets were screwed in and damage from an accident. A trucker ran into...

'77 Trillium 1300

David,
Yes, please add us to your list. The range might have been brown once, but it's been spray painted multiple times. :D Other than that your deciphering looks accurate.

Member Introduction

Hi,

We inherited a 1977 Trillium 1300 when my brother died last year. We camped with him many times, so the little trailer is very special to our family. We've remodeled the inside with paint and...
