I had a pop up tent trailer that periodically got mold spots on the tip outs. This is nearly impossible to avoid because you are bound to leave any campsite with some organic material on the canvas. Because your trailer is closed for travel and storage that organic material will begin to breakdown and cause mold. Canvas is very difficult to clean because it can be damaged by almost any cleaner except soap and water. That’s where the hydrogen peroxide comes in. Simply open up your trailer on a warm day or even at the campsite before you set up the beds etc. Mist straight hydrogen peroxide onto the canvas wherever you see dark mold. Don’t rub the canvas because you want to keep that material strong. Let the hydrogen peroxide dry and reapply as necessary until all those little mold spots are gone. This will not damage the fabric and will remove all the mold before you have a really big problem. I did this for over a decade on my tent trailer and never had a hole or weak fabric as a result. Just really white clean canvas. I hope this helps someone. I searched for years to find a safe product that works without damaging that canvas. Great video. Oh. I also use it straight on white baseball hats that get sweat stained. Does a great job.
Good to know! Thank you!!
Thank you! That helps tremendously
Yes Thank you! I heard Zep was good for mold so I bought it and used it on my canvas, with no luck it did nothing :( Thanks again I will be trying this.
Our second popup was a 2005 Fleetwood Bayside and we used to go camping with the kids every other month. We had it garage kept for 10 years and it looked like new when we sold it. I literally cried when I saw it driving away. We have such fond memories of that popup!
Pop ups usually retain their value! Never a bad idea to have one especially one that gets sold with renovations. It’s nice that they’re so doable to fix up and repair.
They’re also small enough to maintain. In the end, you can get good money for them.
I adore pop ups and my husband thinks I’m strange because of it.
We will be renovating one that we are buying from my sister and brother in law, this spring! I’m just too excited!
You can rip out proprietary curtain rod and install any u-shape or cafe rods, allowing simple rod pocket black out and sheer curtain use.
Blackstone griddles are awesome.
Cool! We've been looking at getting a pop-up, but we're really wary on getting anything that needs any work, because we've never owned one before and aren't really sure how to do that stuff. I've done a lot of car repairs, so I don't imagine it's all that difficult, but I also don't want to buy someone else's problem.
Cut the old curtains in a small strip with all clips on it,then sew new curtains to strip with all clips and your golden brother👌
Wow - you guys really put a lot of work into that and it turned out beautifully! And now you've blessed a young family with it. I know God is blessing you in return!
Hey guys, love the videos! I just watched your 10 tips and tricks for pop up camping and it was great. One more hack I've got for you is to freeze a case of water bottles(with water in, obviously) and now you have ice AND fresh water AND nothing leaks, even in a shitty cooler. I don't do ice ever anymore, just frozen water bottles. You can get a case from Costco for like $15. The added benefit in the end is that you can re use the bottles multiple times. Enjoy camping!!
“And now Rachel is making me paint the bottom “ 😂😂😂😂
Great reno! For two people who can’t sew....you did darn good! Love the velcro idea. I’ve seen videos of people changing out curtains in Airstreams and its just as tricky! Great job! Can’t wait to see your travel vids! God bless you both!
First thing. I love you two. Second. You did a great job. We have been there. In fact, we are still there. We currently have a 1998 Coleman Santa Fe that we have modified as well. Last weekend we took it to Moab (Utah) and the ABS roof started peeling back on the highway. We tied it down and put a pin in it for repair. We kept going and it was fine. We found a camping spot and I started cranking up the roof but I forgot I had strapped the front down to the frame. I broke the gears in the crank mechanism. We didn't give up. We brought some studs for firewood so we used those to hold up the roof. We pushed up the roof a foot at a time on each corner until it was up. We slept in the SUV. lol I have since repaired the gears and we stripped the ABS off and we are going to Flex Seal the entire roof assembly. That is in the works now. I will post a video. Happy camping!
Wow. Thats persistence. Can't wait to see the final result
So you just cleaned the canvas ? Looks so good . I thought you replaced it. Can I take you my pop up for a whole new renovation lol😅
Funny how it is as you get older your idea of camping changes, when our kids were young we did pop-ups and laughed at those who had generators and A/C etc. now they are grown and we just traded our Winnebago for a Cougar 5th wheel, with plenty of bells and whistles! Also we are Floridians.
Don't store your cushions in that cabinet in the slide out.. they'll fit under the table when you lay it down.. and store the seat cushions next to the stove and sink when its folded over we've had the same pop up ours is a 08 and thats where we were told by the dealership to keep them from getting wet.
Been binge watching your channel. Lots of good content! Really motivating me and my wife to get a camper.
So fun! Really want to do this as a project with my kiddos. Could teach them so many valuable skills!
You can always just dye the original covers in a darker solid color.
Wow what fun this is if u like popup u will adore travel trailers.. glamping
Sew new curtain on the strip of old curtain material with clips
I used oxiclean and hot water on the water wood mix stain. They seal on the AC is the culprit for water leaks. Seal is no good and you also have to snug down the four bolts on the ac to tighten it down. I bought a 2007 Fleetwood Niagara and I had the same problem. I soaked the curtains for two days and washed them with gian soap and oxiclean on delicate setting and warm water. It cleaned up real good. I also did the same thing on your video for the roof. Now I just need to do the canvas
You guys did an amazing job! I’m really happy for you guys. I plan on doing this exact same thing within the next year and travel the country. Thank you guys for the motivation
You guys are awesome. I bought a Palomino Stampede ...had some significant water damage...have been on and off deterred - mostly intimidated by the project...but watching you both has inspired me...!!
You guys literally are going to save me so much money! I just started uploading my journey in renovating a $200 camper. I'm going to use many of your ideas! Did you replace the cushions for your dinette? If so, what did you use? The original in the video looked yellow and then the one that got wrapped with fabric looked white. Thank you both!!!
If your using the table as part of the bed, you can increase your travelling storage by laying it upside down, this will give you more storage under it.
Nice job. I appreciate seeing how other people keep their curtains on! We have a 2008 Fleetwood and the curtains have slowly been popping off the C clips. Eventually we want to replace them all anyway.
I have a 2002 Jayco pop-up trailer Quest 10 of had it for the last 4 years and the things in great shape
Ya'll are a precious pair and I love yall. You seem so fun and I love this for yall.
Great looking camper, definitely giving me lots of ideas rebuilding my old Coleman pop-up camper.
I have such amazing memories from camping at Fort Desoto campground in St. Pete. My parents had a pop up at the time and we had so much fun.
we definitely want to go there. We hear its hard to get a spot
Looks great 🎉 love the videos me and my wife are just getting are first tent trailer for boondocking we get it at the end of the month🎉
Great redo.. and I knw the new family from church will love all your hard work..for years to come. Congratulations on inspiring them to camp and make memories ❤ 👏 Tents, vans, pop-ups Rvs.. they are all great Even a primitive lean too.. and ancestral Bushcraft.. I absolutely love it all 😘💕 I knw your going to Love Eleanor 🤗 Love the New Channel 💕
Great info as always. Love those jazzy colors. So I finally got a nearly brand new popup last week. Yay! Even Dear Wife is excited! So I was wondering if you guys ever miss having your popup, before you went full-blown RV on us. (Aside from the much longer setup and takedown or battening down the hatches during rain storms...) Cheers.
Great jobs. Enjoy guys.
Great remodeling work,great color selection love the birds, but why oh why would you go camping in summer here in Florida we are campers but never from June 1 through October,too hot and wet,we live in Vero Beach Florida,we made the mistake of going to the keys one July ,we were tent camping and miserable the whole time, you should try long point in Sebastian great camping park we used to go every spring break when all of our friends kids were out of school for one week,you can get sites right on the river
We're trying to get out as much as possible. One thing is for sure, we wont be doing any dry camping during the summer (unless we have a generator). We're definitely going to look at Long point, thanks for the tip
Going to pick up our pop up this weekend .... we went a little crazy and splurged on a 2014 rock wood high side.... can’t wait to pick it up!!! We are also in Florida hope we run into you sometime!!!
I've been catching up on your keto channel and popped over here to check out kamping. I'm so happy to see how many views you're getting here. Love your shirt Rachel. Tell Tabitha I said hi.
Great job I just got done myself on replacing the wood around the roof top and new canvas but looking to change the colors inside the camper with paint and maybe do the floor in a nice color thanks for sharing this video it gives me some ideas
She loves the pop up
I really like your clever work-arounds. I was trying to think of easy ways to suggest to you, but yours were way better than mine lol. Great Job! Impressive!
Good job, been wondering how to do our cushions 👍
I really want to get one of these and take a trip across America
Ok so I started with a way later video of yours, so now I am watching from the beginning lol.
I was given a 97 jayco popup but it will need the roof rebuilt and I can't get the top to go up so I don't know what kind of water damage it has but from what I can see the cabinets look good and I have no idea what shape the canvas is but hopefully I will be able to fix it up. I like the idea of the velcro on the curtains it will be easier to take off to wash and thank you for sharing what you used for mildew remover I might have to use that also, thanks for sharing
Wow, it looks fantastic!!
You did such a great job!
Yall make me want to go buy a pop up camper !
Oh , I finally saw that you cleaned it .. What did you use to clean it
hi what did u guys used to clean the cancas mine its really bad and i cant get it clean
Key is to be willing to put a little money and work into your camper every year so it doesn’t turn into a pile of junk
Very entertaining video!......I subbed and look forward to watching more of your films..... :)
Put in waterproof hardware floor that what l got in my pop-up camper
What about all the mechanical.parts and electrical and axles etc.
Great ideas for renovating! Thanks for sharing 💕
Kiiiiinda looks like it says "I DON'T VAG" on that thumbnail. Great video though, helpful with cleaning up the pop up I just bought. Thanks
you probably dont give a shit but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf these days xD
@Quentin Lucca Yup, have been using InstaFlixxer for years myself :)
@@quentinlucca6271 does anyone actually fall for this dumb shit? They must, otherwise you wouldn't be doing it. Unless it's just a really fun hobby for you.
Nice job ed on the camper. I was disappointed because I wanted to learn some tricks that would benefit me for when I work on my pop-up. For example, in the opening shots there was ugly stained canvas and moments later, beautiful canvas. Then the floor has a ton of overspray, then woola, new floor. And how did the leaks get fixed. I think your camper looks great in the end and I hope you have many good camping trips in the future.
We cleaned the cavas with this. As we said in the video, we bought vinyl plank flooring and replaced the old.
Excellent restoration!
wow sounds like me and my wife to be, we're looking into something like that too.
This is the second time I’ve seen the bedroom curtains with a more open top portion attached to the curtains. If I may ask, what is the purpose of that top part? We just bought our trailer & I will be redoing the curtains so I’m gathering as much info as possible. Thanks.
LOVE YOUR CAMPING VIDEOS HOPE YOU MAKE SO MANY MORE
we have a lot more coming
@@2KrazyKampers YAAAAY
Nice Job! Very cute.
How do you know if your wood in the frame of the roof is good? If it leaked if would be wet and rotting?
Very nice job you should be proud of all the work you did. What did you use to clean the vinyl inside the camper?
Impressive Job!
Use 5200 to seal
Great job! My husband and I just got a pop up camper too and we are super excited about doing some renovations to it. Ours has a lot of water damage too. If you dont mind me asking how did you managed to get the stain out of the canvas?
Great video!
Go to Lowes and get spray stain & mildew remover. You can also find it in Walmart in the RV section. Be careful, they all contain bleach. We ruined several shirts.
@@2KrazyKampers thank you so much for the advice! We were able to get 90% of the stains out. We almost have a brand new pop-up! 💚
My son bought a 1994 coleman yesterday, its not too bad. I'm attempting to work my magic, I've wanted to renovate an RV for yeas. I'm ok with trying my hand with this pop up.
What soap you use to clean the canvas. Good Job
Ditto! I would like to know too the process of cleaning the canvas and such
Same please
Oxiclean and gain soap is what I used. I soaked the curtains for two days and then washed them with gian soap and oxiclean on delicate setting and warm water. It cleaned up real good. Now I just need to do the canvas. I have a 2007 Fleetwood Niagara and the ac was the culprit. Seal between ac and roof leaked. Do not dry them in dryer. Hang them on the line.
Thanks a lot guys. Could you tell me what you used to clean the canvas, particularly along the inside spot where roof and bedrooms meet. It was a real mess before you started to work on it and you made it look like new. Thanks again. mj

WHERE DID YOU GET Canvas? I JUST GOT A 1991 STARCRAFT METEOR AND NEED ALL NEW CANVAS
Hi can you give me information about the toilet size, microwave, and ice chest please?
Sorry, we dont have this anymore
What part of Florida are you in? We’re in Clearwater. Gulf coast.
We just got our first pop up, for free! There was no title though so I had to go through the courts to obtain a title and I was awarded ownership today!!
Code enforcement has been bothering us, too and it’s killing me. I am cleaning, remodeling and stocking it with all necessary things. I need it HERE so I can do all of that!
Congratulations on the popup, you'll love it. We're in the Ft Lauderdale area
I was really watching to find out how you cleaned the canvas/screens... What did you use/do?
hey guys, we just bought a Coleman pop up its a 2003! yay it needs a lot of cleaning up especially the canvas due to a roof leak. We need to remove the ceiling and rebuild it, clean the canvas walls from the water stains and crud! So what did you use to clean the canvas? Did you remove the canvas and wash it with a top loading washing machine from a Laundromat? You said you sprayed it? Its looks so good! Like brand new! I want to do that. Please let me know.
We sprayed it with a mildew cleaner from Walmart
Where did you get those outside sliding shelf arms from for the grill?
Amazon. amzn.to/3u8TSYZ
Nice job! I have a 2006 Utah and was wondering what flooring did you put down? How has it held up over the years?
How di you restore the water stained canvas?
Great job, I am in the process of doing one now but it’s too cold to paint and it has been raining and nasty. What did y’all use to get the mildew off of the canvas? Thanks
What cleaner did you use for the canvas water mold damage?
mold remover from Walmart. Its in the camping section
What product or products did you use to clean the canvas?!! Mine looks just like that!!!
I wish mine had AC and a slide.
I like to know where he got the brackets from that he built the butcher block shelf to hold the black stone grill on
Amazon amzn.to/3iihTtH
Thanks a million I ordered a set for my outside table to hold the grill plus they were cheap 👍🏻
Did you replace that end , the cloth where it was molded ? Where did you get it
No, we killed the mold
Where did you get the piece attached to the butcher block shelf that interfaces with the channel on the outside of the camper?
amazon. Its linked in the video
@2KrazyKampers I have the same question. I found the support rails, but no luck in finding the part for the butcher block. Thanks!
If you are still looking for curtain makers we can help you
We just bought a 2000 model pop up and of course I know part of it is from cold weather but the side windows will not stretch to zip shut. Does anyone have any ideas or is it totally due to cold weather? New to owning a pop up.
It's because of the colder weather. You can try heating it up a little with a blow dryer. Don't use a heat gun because you could melt the plastic if you're not careful
What did you clean the inside of the tent/canopy with?
mildew cleaner from Walmart
What did you use to clean the canvas???

@@2KrazyKampers thank you!
You did a great job on that camper. Very cool.
I did similar with a 2013 Forest River Palomino that had also been left somewhat for “dead”. Quite fun to repair and remodel. And now over 50 trips later!!!… it’s been incredible fun.
I hope you two get the same enjoyment out of yours.
Made a solid video repairing my roof side walls… you might like it….

Air conditioner is what ruined the canvas.
Ok she said welcome to our home. Do you live in that?
no
@@2KrazyKampers o okay.
Joe, I'm late to the party, but if you can give me the name or source of the hinges that you used on the outside stove table at mark11:24 I would appreciate it. We have a 2000 Coleman Santa Fe that needs a new table top and the hinges you used look like a perfect fit. Thanks in advance.
Joe, never mind. I found something. Enjoyed the video. Tks
amzn.to/3xorq7n
@@2KrazyKampers Thank you. Where did you find the piece that goes on the edge of the butcher block? The piece lock in to the camper?
What did you use to get the mildew stains out of the canvas? I have some minor spotting/staining from not airing mine out in time after it was put away slightly wet from rain, so nothing like you were dealing with, but I'd like to clean them up but haven't been sure what to use.
Also, I have a pop-up with the same curtain clips, which my kids ripped off goofing around at night on a camping trip when they were little. I just took them down (and stored them for years) because they were just the curtains between the sleeping bunks and the main area. Last summer I came across them, and I found a local dry cleaner that worked with a seamstress that had a sewing machine capable of sewing them back on (apparently it's not a huge deal to sewing thru the plastic if you know what you're doing...which I don't, when it comes to sewing). I had them reattached to nearly two full curtain panels and they charged me $20...well worth it!

@@2KrazyKampers Thanks!
@@2KrazyKampers And that cleaner was safe to use re: the waterproofing of the canvas?
Very nice! What was the name of the rubber coat you put on the rooftop.
It was a rubber roof paint from Home Depot
Did I miss it? How did you clean the canvas so well?
