Good day all. I am celebrating my little Class C 21st year by doing some remodeling..... well, maybe modernization is a better word. To start, I am trying to replacement trim and I am not even sure what to call the molding. T- Molding?
Any advice would be great.
In the end, I am getting rid of the brass color. Starting with the drawer handles. And this trim, I would love to replace it. My motor home was made in 95. Teal was quite the rage back then and it is full of it. I dont mind, and I do like it, but I want to add some more contemporary colors, such darker trim, brushed metal handles and some point, replace the carpet in the middle with a darker gray hard floor.
Cheap plastic edging, yuk.
Instead of buying more of that cheap looking simulated wood edging you could buy glue on wood veneer..
Looks like this..
It IS real wood veneer (extremely thin slice of wood) and has heat activated adhesive on the back side. You use a Iron that you would normally use to iron clothes with to heat the veneer and press it to whatever you are applying the veneer to.
Once veneer is in place you can use wood stain and sealer to finish to the color that matches your existing cabinets..
Lowes has it HERE for a roll 3/4" wide by 25ft birch for $6.58.
Personally in most cases you do not need a RV place to get things for your RV when upgrading the interior.. My entire trailer is 90%+ upgraded from Lowes and Home Depot.
For drawer and cabinet knobs and pulls just go to your local big box store and pick out what you like and will fit.. You will get much higher quality for less cost than a RV store.
