    How did the floating floor due in the camper with the ambient Summer to Winter temperature swings?

      Poorly. I should have insisted. I wanted one single sheet of vinyl. It’s only bad in the long run down the middle. We have rugs covering the open seems. There are about 5 open seams about an eighth of an inch to a quarter at the most.

    This looks like Snowflake or Concho. Make sure you pay attention to how the rain water runs on your property. It could mess up a good portion of the property if its a slight wash. The rear of my property is a slight wash. Step back there after a hard rain and you sink 3-4 inches in mud.

    Now you’re in a different country than me but doesn’t it need to be breathable? Reg mortar or lime? What was the sealer? Our walls are 140yrs and have all that shit on them too that’s peeling but the moisture gets bad in the summer. Does this help? I’d like to actually store stuff there without getting moldy in the summer…no leaks tho - thank you!

    I used to live in St. Johns back in the 70's, we had 80 acres 21 miles due north of St. Johns out in the middle of nowhere, it was part of the Spurlock ranch back then. I worked for Mel De Spain and he was married to LaVale, she was the widow of one of the Whiting Brothers, everyone in St. Johns were so nice, still miss that town.

      This flooring product is not made for RVs. The RV sits in cold weather and hot weather. The flooring expands and contracts with the change in temperature. Doesn’t use this product. The best is the roll of vinyl flooring. It goes down with glue in one big sheet.

    I love the look of this! I have a very similar wall that has years of additional cement crap on there. I started ripping it off and it has beautiful stone under it. What do you use for sealing against moisture to keep the original look? I can only seem to find dry-lock in white or grey.
