Carpet Must GO!
I totally despise carpeting, especially in a motorhome. My carpet wasn't in real bad shape but it is 21 years old. A few weeks I got my Barth, my Mom had the tile in her new house cleaned. Since the guy was there I tossed him $20 and had him hit my carpet. It cleaned up good but there was still lots of dust coming out of the carpet. I stumbled across a killer deal on a 10x12 piece of Armstrong vinyl flooring. Time for the carpet to go bye bye.

21 years of Arizona dust hiding out. No wonder I couldn't get rid of the dust.



Clean and fresh, no more dust!

That looks good. It really brightens it up.

The title of this thread reminds me of the last words of Oscar Wilde:

I was dreading tearing into the genny but it turned out to be easier than I expected. I have so much trouble with lawn mowers, I figured the Kohler would be more of the same. I just never mastered small engine fine tuning. I have more incentive to learn the generator engine since I CANNOT go without coffee in the morning.

Really the flooring wasn't too bad to install, just around the cabinet curves got kinda tricky. Slow and steady wins the race.

It looks great. Janet (her Barth) removed all the carpet from our coach. Replaced the compartment covering with new carpet and laminated wood flooring for main floor. It looks fabulous. I'll have to post some pictures.

We found the same pile of sand under the carpet. Smiler
