Since laminate comes in a lot of different thicknesses, how do you know what one is the right thickness for your slides? I've yet to find out, and since carpet compresses, I can't even use that as a guide.
Pull the carpet out and then see what you have. My slide doesn't even touch my carpet and assume there must be a pad under it. So I'm confident I could put most any thickness laminate down and not have a problem. I haven't done it yet, but I'm going to. I'll probably pull the carpet out before I buy anything just so I can make sure how much room I have to work with.
Our slide hasn't left any marks on the carpet in our coach so I think as long as the laminate is thinner than the carpet it shouldn't be an issue. Our 5th wheel had marks on the carpet where the slide slide in and out so there are some RVs where that can be an issue.
