Default Paneling

Can I replace the paneling over the sleeper sofa of my 1984. I love the wood frame windows, but would like to replace the paneling. I've refinished furniture, but never did a wall.

Never done it, but I don't see why you couldn't. I believe some members of the forum have replaced theirs with something different.

Default replacing paneling

I have a 1990 25ft. Classic. We have done extensive repairs due to water dammage. This included ripping out two complete wall back to the fiberglass. Post a picture so we can better help you.

I am not familiar with the paneling of that year. Is it wood?

Hello,
I am a french speaker so sorry about my english and thank you for your help !
We have an Hilo 2209, 2009 year and We must change the actual metal roof.
Can you tell me if it is possible to put the metal roof off and change it for a membrane (TPO or EPDM)?
Will it affect the strenghtness of the structure ?

Thank you for a fast answer !

I haven't forgotten about my question, been busy putting the trailer on the backburner. I can't figure out how to upload pictures of the damage.

Guylaine, I think it would be difficult to remove and replace the roof. What is the damage? Would it be possible to patch (cover) any holes in it? If so, you could then paint the roof with an elastomeric paint such as one of these: https://www.google.com/search?q=elas...utf-8&oe=utf-8

Default Replacing the roof.

We have a rubber roof that yrs. ago started to leak. We caught the leak early enough that we were able to put a 20ft. rubber patch on it and have been dry ever since. We consulted with JR in Ohio. This is strictly a repair place for HiLo. He said we could go from a rubber roof to a metal one. I would think you could change roofs.
