1974 trillium

I have a 1974 trillium and would like to change the carpet flooring. Does anyone know what was the original flooring in a 1974 trillium? tsk Mel

Ugly shag carpet was the original. I couldn’t wait to remove mine.

painting floor Trillium

I pulled old tile off the floor of my 76 Trillium 1300 and it was impossible to get all the old adhesive off. I considered several floor covering options and I think I’m just going to pain the floor of the trailer a dark color. Inexpensive, easy to do, easy to clean. Has anyone else done this?

Scraped the old foam and glue off the fiberglass floor. If I decide to paint over the fiberglass flooring, is there a certain type of paint I should use like a rubberized paint?

The Trillium floor consists of gelcoat-coated fiberglass. If you want to paint it, you'll need to sand it first.

for awhile we simply used rugs, then we installed black interlocking gym tiles, and rugs on top of that. this makes it warmer on cold nights/mornings.

I’ve been reading that deck or garage floor paint can work.

Just my 2 cents, I put in 1/4” hardwood, It was easy and cheap as it is so small. It’s been in for 5 years and we love it.
