Update on the floor replacement:
I wanted to make sure I used the correct materials for the tile floor so I called the big boys.
Millennium Coach and Marathon Coach and asked how they attach granite tiles to their buses.
Both were super helpful and based on their process I am using the following:
First a primer is applied to the plywood, Protecto Wrap 6000 Primer
Next Protecto Wrap Whisper Mat CS is applied
Next is Mapei kerabond mortar mixed with keralastic
Then the tile is put down
Based on the input from the high end RV guys this combination of the whisper mat and keralastic does a great job making sure the vibrations and flexibility can handle the bumps and turns for an RV.
I will post pics as the project moves forward.
