"It's sandpaper. You know what it looks like. It's, it's sandpaper. If you don't know, google it." Lol. You have a new subscriber.

Just bought my first RV and I can't wait to cover that "classic" wallpaper. Thanks for sharing your remodel experience. It looks amazing!
-
We're picking up our 25 year old motorhome on Monday to prep it for full-time living in 3 weeks. This tutorial was super helpful... thanks!!
-
You are so adorable!! I've watched others and that's silicon caulking, paint will NOT stick to it! I've watched others that cut it out. GREAT JOB!!
-
Oh guuurrrllll…… that is gorgeous wallpaper compared to mine!!!
-
that is such a big job, you are doing great
-
It took me almost two weeks to paint my whole trailer! I also have a very busy life so no shame, girl! Looks great!!
-
I just bought a 1992 Tiffin motor home. This thing is 95 percent original. That's why I bought it. I could see it was taken care of. I've seen plenty of hacked coaches, don't want them.
-
Using gripper paint before painting can work wonders!
-
Thank you so much for the informative video. We just moved into our brand new RV and I can't wait to get rid of the "grandma's basement" look.
-
Thank you for doing this. It has been very helpful because I had no idea how to even begin.
-
Exclusive nooks and crannies 🤣🤣 best description ever. I'm painting my cabinets now and then will start on walls.
-
Perfect. We live in ours. I am walking backwards and will attempt to paint while we live in it. Will have to do a tint section at a time. Girl those valances are a pain in the behind.
-
Great Job on Video. After a week in Farragut State Park in Idaho. I realized how dark our Rockwood Mini Light was on interior.. Thanks for info
-
Those window coverings are not even bad compared to the ones in my trailer. Wish I could post a photo so everyone could share in the horror.
-
I don’t hate that wallpaper. Wish mine looked like that lol
-
Simply White was your mistake. During my college years, I painted 1800 apartments and houses and learned that better quality paint with at least a little pigment in it was vastly better than pure white. Just go one shade in ANY direction for an off-white and two coats are plenty.

I am beginning painting mine monday thanks so much new sub!
-
Looks great! I would live with the wood cabinets for a while. I think they look nice and a great contrast. The dark stain color is definitely current and not outdated like so many others that we see around that need painting for sure.
-
Great job. I wonder if there is a wallpaper Primer Four coats would take forever. We have a 2017 30:ft fifth wheel Camper with that same wall paper. It will be painted this summer. We probably will roll it on. Not sure. I know your rig will be awesome when you are finished. Blessings.
