Finally! Managed to get out there this evening - albeit a little late.
Also got half the yard mowed today. Yippee. Lol.
I added some extra fiberglass on both sides tonight. I am finally getting this flattened out fairly well.
That means I will be able to finally glue the Tpo down for good shortly.
First pic is of the drivers side. Oh, and yes, I now know my camera lens was a little dirty. Duh on me.
The passenger side also.

I did, however, manage to get a number of fiberglass layers put into place to try and get things a bit more level before gluing the rubber into place.
Hopefully, one more day of adding glass and resin, and I'll be ready to glue the Tpo in place and be done with this area.
We'll see, as they are calling for rain this week.

Here's how you know you screwed up and didn't wait long enough for the fiberglass resin to dry, before trying to sand it. Oops...
I also added a few layers of fiberglass on both sides of the coach above the front seating area.
Adding several more layers, will allow me to build this up and level it out, so it, hopefully, looks like a reasonably nice contour when the Tpo is pulled front and glued down.
I do intend to cover most of this area with the Tpo, as it reduces heat transfer by a very large amount.

I cut off the excess of the screws on the inside on both sides above the pilot and co-pilot's seats. That will allow insulation to be installed there.
The front cap above the seating area had virtually no insulation from the factory, and as such, transmitted a lot of heat into this area.

I finally got all the old gunk off of there, and gave things just a very quick light sanding with 36 grit to remove the final remnants of what is probably, nearly 40 year old, hard as a rock, Dicor.
Even the other side is finally cleaned and lightly sanded. Next I can add some fiberglass near the sides to close up the areas that I had to cut to make the old fiberglass bend and fit the way it needed to.

If you're still not happy with the stability of your ladder, a little extra bracing could be in order......
Yeah, it doesn't move...
