I helped my buddy reupholster his camper, and what we did with his fold out bed was we bought 1 inch strips of plastic folded the fabric over them and used self tapping screws to screw them into the metal frame.
I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package ruclips.net/user/postUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
I did my upholstery the same way but I went to harbor freight and got the fabric drop cloths....much cheaper and you can dye them if you want! Love your remodel, looks great
I actually like the touch of the wood edges, breaks it up some and goes with the other wood aspects, (cutting boards and such) that are in there for decor
I bet using contact paper over the rubber edges would work perfectly. They are designed for countertops and are cheap, flexible, and able to cover the rubber.
We have that exact light sconce and we decided to paint it black as well. Thanks for doing it first so I can see what it will look like. Turning it upside down had not occurred to me. Thanks for that great idea! 👍🏼

Hey there a tip I use for my commissions is for the handles is if they’re metal, lightly sand them and then after every cost of paint (primer, paint, clear coat) bake them in like a old oven even like a small toaster oven. Bake them @200 deg F for around 30- hour. The baking creates a stronger bond and creates a durability similar to powder coating. :) I hope this helps
@@elizabethpenton2306 Sorry I meant toaster oven like this one in the link I attached not a microwave lol, I will update my comment.

You did a pretty good job. Suggestion for the floor. Cut the carpet around everything, then put 1/4" Lunan plywood down, fill in all the joints with wood filler, after getting a smooth surface install the peel and stick flooring of your choice.
For the trim, honestly black tape. Like for automotive use, cover chrome trim on cars with it. It would be flexible, it's made for outside of a car I'm sure it would hold up for that. I say black because I think it would offset the counter top and cabinet sides well.
First off after being 20 years old and that looks pretty damn good and even afterwards It look good but to me I would have just left it as it is but I'm amazed it was 20 years old and looking like that that's amazing and mind blowing 🤔🤯
Mr Build it.... I'm convinced you must have a secret identical twin that no one knows about. How in the world can you tackle home renos, home projects, complete an rv reno & spend time with the family?!! I mean, y'all did also have a baby so there's time for "bada bing bada boom" too 🤣. Seriously, you're a one-man army 💪🏻. Courage and sweat is most definitely your motto
Hog rings is what they would normally use to secure the fabric instead of cable ties. The hog ring pliers and hog rings are pretty cheap. Might be a tool to add to your stash if you plan on doing a bunch more upholstery work. If its a one time deal the cable ties basically do the same thing as the rings though. Nice work!
Amazing job. The flexible wood grain counter edger is called T molding and you can get 100' for $40ish on Amazon. It also comes in less amounts for around $1 a foot. Black or white would make it pop!
Am I he only one that thinks a drill style HOT GLUE GUN is just AWESOME!!!!!! The renovation is freaking awesome. I plan on buying an RV and doing the same. Looks like I can definitely do it myself.
I watched a video last night of "professional" painters paint oak cabinets. They did not attempt to fill in the grain at all. They taped off everything in the kitchen and rolled the paint on the cabinet bases. I'm glad you filled in the grain. I have used Aqua Coat and it did a fantastic job. Hot glue was not a good choice. RV's when not in use RV's get very hot inside.That's an easy fix after the glue re-melts.
I love stuff like this. There is a ton of competition these days flipping houses- but not many people doing this. Do you think it is a good niche to make some extra cash for someone handy? Is there a market for them?
Great job! I loved how the futon turned out. The upholstery job is stellar. The striated, tone-on-tone fabric went with the 80’s wallpaper. I agree with the comments on the Plasti-dip. Ordering new trim may not be an option for you. But check out your local stone yard to see if you can get your hands on some remnant material. Make a countertop template and see if you can spend $200 or so for some granite or quartz. But overall sweet Reno!
You can use Ritz (fabric Dye) Get a very large stainless steel pot and a bottle of Ritz. There are specific directions on the bottle referencing heating temperatures etc. I used to use it for my business dyeing nylon and Delrin pieces before I found black sheets of those materials. Once you dye it, the parts stay whatever color since it actually permeates the pores of the material vs paint (or plasti dip) which is a surface finish. Alternatively, that material they use is very similar to the handrails for motorized escalators so I'm sure you could do a quick internet search for the width and color you need if you'd rather replace than restomod it. Good Luck, love the channel.
Hello. We just bought a 2011 keystone residence. Absolutely beautiful. However…. All that brown. Love the white you did on this. I didn’t catch what kind of paint you used. Thank you so much. Just sent your video to my husband.
That trim is called T molding. It’s like a dollar a foot. Also cheap hack for the upholstery, use drop cloths! so much cheaper than a fabric store. Plus it’s super duty.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great job. A friend of mine did the same to his RV but he saved money and time by getting the stick-on tile on his floor and it looks awesome. Stay Safe & Healthy...... Abrazos
For the rubberized trim, that you can't paint. I would suggest that you try peel and stick wallpaper. It comes in a lot of different colors and patterns and it's durable.
you can buy the white plastic t molding and just replace it. That is what I did in my camper after I painted the cabinets. Just measure the size and groove and can order the t molding by the foot and it looks super nice!!
Wow, great transformation!! I like your modo! Courage and Sweat, thanks for explaining it too! Makes sense now! Also, i think ill start to attempt more stuff with the idea that its ok to fail!!
do a search online for the rubber trim around the counter tops. I know that most restaurant tables have that same trim and I have replaced them before for a customer. you just tap the molding on and then trim flush with the countertop.
You did a fabulous job at updating the inside. Some of the RV parks will not allow a 10+ year camper in the parks. Will you do an update on the outside? Paint or wrap?
There are loads of places you missed when you were spraying the wood in the camper, under the top cabinets and a big wood frame when you were talking about the wood filler in the camper. Some of them even have spray over on them as if you were going to paint them but forgot!
I used plasti dip (spray form) for the rubber molding on mine. Works well, only problem is it Scratches and you have to touch it up from time to time. Also the color range isn’t great. But best option I could find
Zip tie upholstery! LOVE IT! LOL Dude, is there anything you can't do? You made this camper look 100% better and bigger! Now, paint/design the outside. 😁
they sell a wrap you can use for counter tops and such, maybe you can wrap that trim in like a white or something to get the flexible wood looking piece to look better and match everything
i think you can find new colors of that rubber moulding from like fastcap. might be more costly but simple to replace. vinyl wrap if not ? maybe? looks good dude!
I painted a bunch of RvV cabinets just like those and dusted of using that stuff you're using I used automotive primer sprayed it on and then sanded it down works great
What I like best about your channel.... seeing that you make some of your decisions on the fly and aren't afraid to experiment. Good job man, keep up the great work.
You can mix epoxy and sand to create a flexible trim piece using a silicone mold. Take the "wood" trim piece to create a silicone mold with it. Then recreate the trim with sand and epoxy and unmold before the epoxy has fully hardened to get the right shape. I've seen videos on it, there's more to it than that but that's how I'm going to put trim around a half rounded window I have when I redo the trim and base boards in my house.
Only seen your channel yesterday and already my favourite Channel I have ever watched. I have a young family and just bought a home. Your videos are going to be a great help for me. Keep up the great work man 💪
Awesome job... really freshens up the place ...I did dislike the brass handles half as much as the window coverings...and yes that fabric was a little outdated😉😉🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕
I often tape my fingers in electrical tape when I'm doing something I know over time will give me blisters. It completely prevents the blisters and doesn't really impede dexterity. His left hand definitely looks like that's what he did, not sure about the other hand though.
Is it more costly to renovate a trailer vs a home? For example, the walls are a different material than drywall. If you wanted to paint/change the walls, would that be more or less costly than a home? Thanks!
I like the black. Did you check a rv supply for edge banding for countertops? And there is vinyl spray paint at auto parts store. Also, just FYI, check the videos on sofa building. Those guys in India and Eastern Europe do a great job. One of those things that “ is nice to know”.
Just a thought for the trim around the counter tops.... I might would try wrapping it with a permanent adhesive vinyl. I have used permanent adhesive vinyl for alot of projects it comes in lots of colors and prints! Hope it helps just a thought! :)

you explain things really fast in ways i wouldn't expect. i like that.
Use white “plastidip” then clear it. It is liquid vinyl so it stretches and the clear helps protect it
Yep that’s what I was going to recommend
Yup same here
Great idea or he could buy white T molding to replace the "oak" T molding
Plastidip all the way 👍
Vinyl could just be cut and put on like a sticker
Just used the white grain filler as well for our oak kitchen cabinets. They have turned out awesome. I love this product and makes a huge difference.
Did you have oak as well? I’m staring at my cherry cabinets and wondering if I need to do that for them, too. 🤔
I actually like the touch of the wood edges, breaks it up some and goes with the other wood aspects, (cutting boards and such) that are in there for decor
I remodeled our popup camping trailer this summer. It turned out really well, congrats on the success!
I like it ,pink chandier over the dinette.
I bet using contact paper over the rubber edges would work perfectly. They are designed for countertops and are cheap, flexible, and able to cover the rubber.
Great idea! That’s what I was thinking too.
I do renos a lot, my solution to the molding is stick on shelf paper. Comes in all colors and is flexible
Watched the whole video…… love it… he’s a great guy, very creative…love the couch, the white makes it look larger and cleaners…
We have that exact light sconce and we decided to paint it black as well. Thanks for doing it first so I can see what it will look like. Turning it upside down had not occurred to me. Thanks for that great idea! 👍🏼
We were just told my son has been given a camper for graduation. It's almost as old as I am. I've been looking for inspiration so I can tackle this thing with confidence. I happened upon this video and it gave me hope.
By the way what you did to the cushions is upholstery, no sewing is required. Tattoos definitely belong in craft stores.
For the edging try a rubber spray. It’s flexible and you get Matt black 😊 I’m sure that will work. Your RV looks so good. Well done.
Hey there a tip I use for my commissions is for the handles is if they’re metal, lightly sand them and then after every cost of paint (primer, paint, clear coat) bake them in like a old oven even like a small toaster oven. Bake them @200 deg F for around 30- hour. The baking creates a stronger bond and creates a durability similar to powder coating. :) I hope this helps
You put metal in a microwave?

Did you really just stitch your sleep-bench back together with zip-ties? Absolute legend. Great content as always. Much love from Switzerland 🤘🏻
Looks great! I think the wood grained flexible molding looks great against the white cabinets.

Love the tape on your fingers. That's real world fixing.
Why didn’t you paint or replace the gold hinges?
Same thought! Everything else looks so nice!!
He said it would cost over 100 bucks to replace them all so he just decided to paint them
Cracks me up using the compressed air to blow off the dust which lands on the stack of doors just dusted off.
He painted the handles but not the hinges?
I painted my door pulls and hinges when I did my camper.
I think the oak trim looks really good with the white

You combined my two favorite things...you + camper remodel.

P.S. aqua coat is the best. It works so well.
Use Vinyl Dye on the trim...it’s basically the same as purple pipe primer but in a multitude of colors.

For the flexible wood trim you could use either a white or black t molding like they use on arcade cabinets instead of edge banding
For the rubberized trim, that you can't paint. I would suggest that you try peel and stick wallpaper. It comes in a lot of different colors and patterns and it's durable.
So bright and fresh!
You really did made an RV renovations so easy that is awesome
For the flex wrap pieces use a vinyl wrap it would work great
Lol… it’s giving cooking show vibes 😂 (awesome vid btw super helpful).

Very cool. You can replace that t-molding edging for pretty cheap. I believe you can get the same size in black or white
Love it! SO smart to do the hole filler on your cabinets. Makes me want to go back and sand mine down and do it again!
For flexible trim pieces - vinyl car wrap. Not all wrap is the same. Some will crinkle when it goes into the groove. Avery or 3M works well.

If you're painting something white in the sun it's a good idea to wear sunglasses. Just like you would for sand or snow.
Made it look bigger inside for sure, I like projects like that. Good job.

One tip
When stretching cloth start from the middle out, so you don't get any wrinkles
:)
That fabric looks pretty thin, so chances are he's going to get to redo it sooner than later.
Hello! Can you explain how you took the futon apart? I have the exact style living room set up! Such a genius way to put new fabric on
Very cool video. I definitely learned a few things to do on mine! Ten year old camper half updated, now I can do more!!

Great job. I got some ideas for my 20 year old trailer
QUESTION: I didn't see any prep for the pulls - the primer calls for wiping with mineral spirits and sanding. Did you do any of that off-canera?
vinyl dye like VHT brand is perfect for that plastic edging, its a dye more than a paint so it etchs in, auto parts stores have it, also many colours
