- Today, I'm attempting to restore a massive 36.5 foot smoked in travel trailer. This is one of the grossest jobs I've ever done..... if you have a weak stomach, you may want to skip through a few parts...
Was a smoker for 8 years never smoked indoors didn’t realize just how nasty it could be I can’t imagine what my lungs look like so glad I quit! Congrats on the great purchase
Thank you!! Yes definitely is a shocking realization!
Glad you quit too...congrats!
Now you know why the previus owner died..
That's sad but actually true
might be a good trailer to live in while you build a house on the property you wanted ! .
That’s a great idea! 😉
And just think I could imagine what it smells like when you turn on your air conditioner or your furnace🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
OMG! This thing is HUUUUUGGGGEEEEE! It is bigger than my apartment, haha. You guys live in a beautiful part of the world. I can't mention this enough. Anyway, I was totally prepared to watch a new episode of MEGnificent Meg, you know, with a drink and food to start watching your video. Well, after seeing the video, I wasn't hungry anymore.
I am so glad, like you also mentioned, that I have never touched a cigarette in my entire life. This must have been the most disgusting project you did. But where there's a Meg, there's a way to become happy at the end of the video. Enjoy this mobile villa and the upcoming vacation with your partner. Big X from your fan from the NL.
Thank you Roy!! This thing is massive - definitely getting a lot of looks on the road lol!! We do live in an amazing part of the world - so grateful for that. This was definitely the grossest project I've done lol but honestly, knowing how much of a difference it would make made it all worth it and we're going to thoroughly enjoy this 'yacht' this summer! Hope you're having a great week!
Great work! But in the future,just a tip! Use foam and foam it down and let that soak for 10min or so,and rinse. If its not clean after that,then use the foambrush as last step. It makes the job to remove algae soo much easier. :)
Great tip, thank you!!
Got a little bad information for you worked on RVS and rebuilt RV's professionally for 9 years rebuilt my own RV's and let me tell you most RV's have wrought in them within the first three years because the fact rebuild does not properly seal them their computer sealed so if you want to keep your rv in good shape you have to get up there even when it's brand new and seal it with the proper good sealer which most of them are rubber roofs and there's two different kinds of rubber roofs so you have to get the proper sealer for the proper rubber roof if you use the wrong sealer it will burn it and stretch it the only way you can tell is if you have the book for the rv or from the color of the inside of the rubber one is white one is black you have to use a self leveling sealant for the roof and then a good silicone not cheap silicone on the seams on the walls They're not built to last because they wouldn't make any money if they did so trust me get up on the roof walk on it very carefully see where your rod is hopefully you got one with a winter package on the under case with the hard plastic or steel if it's got the perforated tarp type material when you drive water sprays up gets the installation wet and then you get mold on the floorboards underneath the trailer trust me I'm ripped out enough installations on RV trailers and it's really weird mold because it seems to like to eat particle board which your floors are made out of on all rb rentals that we had I had to rip out all the installation and we just ran them with no insulation because we didn't rent a motor in the winter I learned rvs were no good years ago before I even worked in an RV place and I bought a school bus and changed it into a motorhome because school busses are all metal so you got one thing good right fiberglass on the outside rv's is a good thing because most of fiberglass rvs have metal studs so good luck I found even rebuilding rvs that have got rod in them once you start replacing you don't stop never ending job If you see any leaks in the colors or the sealant it's too late And if you're gonna cook in an RV with propane and heat it with propane make sure you get yourself a very good dehumidifier
I grew up around cigarette people and that residue is THE WORST
Major kudos to you for dealing with that 🤢
Thank you! Yes, some nasty stuff no doubt!
a steamer might work well for taking out all that then use essential oils
Good idea!
A tip from Germany for you Americans: Use washing powder for cleaning textiles, pour two large cups of it into a bucket full of warm water, then use a mop with a telescopic pole and start scrubbing the ceiling. The surfactants in the detergent dissolve the nicotine dirt very easily and at the same time more cost-effectively than all other detergents.
Ummm... Canadian!
@@bernardcromarty485 : Oh, aren't you Americans, dear Canadians, or did you mean to say that you in North America are something else? Well, you're not European, and you're not Australian or New Zealander either. (The answer is meant as a joke!)
I'm a Brit...
@@bernardcromarty485Canadians are indeed
Americans than anything else that’s what he trynna say
Thank you @nordwestbeiwest1899 ! Good tip!
Oyyyy, Meg, today you hit me in the hurting spot... If there is one thing I can't stand is some musky smell, grimey, yellowish, sticky disgusting smoked place, caked in tar-like thowing-up inducing shit... 🤮 This should be a waking call for all smokers out there.. If this is what a wall looks like, everybody, think of a smoker's lungs..directly inhaling in the millions of lung "stomatas" (I don't know the name of lung bubbles, actually stomatas are plant breathing mechanism). No wonder those get clogged badly resulting in breathing defficiency and illnesses.. 😒 You did the right thing in young years, absolutely something to cheer about!
Good job though, it looks better already at a glance.. Well, you will have to use more elbow grease and that magic solvent to get it right. Good luck, cheers and keep on. Don't forget the trailer measures also, keep in mind it's pretty big..😉
Honestly that’s what I was thinking as well! If the smoke stuck to these walls as badly as it has, imagine the damage to the lungs! Nasty stuff!
So.... did a quick check on TSP.... turns out it is not exactly safe or environmentally friendly...
What Risks are Associated with Trisodium Phosphate?
A toxic substance, TSP can be harmful if swallowed, and exposure to it (in granular or diluted form) can cause serious eye injury and skin irritation. Personal protection equipment (PPE), including long pants and sleeves, waterproof gloves, goggles, and a respirator, should be worn when preparing and using TSP
Up until the late 20th century, trisodium phosphate was a common ingredient in household cleaners and detergents, but negative environmental impact led to strict limitations on its use. Phosphate runoff into lakes and rivers was found to trigger algae overgrowth, depleting oxygen in the water and endangering fish, animals, and aquatic plants.
Now TSP is no longer included in most commercial products, and its sale remains banned or restricted in various states and cities (consult your state’s environmental protection agency, health department, or department of natural resources’ water quality division for local laws).
TSP can damage some common surfaces in and around the home; particularly vulnerable are bathroom fixtures such as faucets, pipes, shower/tub enclosures, and drains. Its high alkalinity can etch glass, mirrors, and ceramic tile, as well as darken and corrode aluminum, chrome, and other metals. TSP eats away at grout and shouldn’t be used for general cleaning on painted wood.
Take care around foliage when using TSP outdoors. Opt for a windless day if possible, and hose down landscaping, before and after use, to avoid exposing and potentially damaging plants.
Thanks for this info! I definitely should have been wearing a mask and gloves, it’s very important to be safe around chemicals regardless if they’re biodegradable or not
As a lifelong contractor, I LOVE TSP for sooo many different uses!!! You could save yourself a lot of $, though, by getting a generic spray bottle at the Dollar Store and buying a small box of powdered TSP at Home Depot and mix it to your own desired strength. Now it's more concentrated than pre mixed and you have a 2nd spray bottle, so you don't have to do it all by yourself!!!
No kidding, I've always bought the little milk carton of it to use before painting and that makes gallons on concentrate mix for the same price of one bottle. 10$ CAD seems to be the going price for the spray bottle and I can't find the cartons.
FYI they use tsp in cereals in America.
As a current smoker, no offense taken! I refuse to smoke in the house for the same reason. Even a lot of smokers can’t stand the smell it leaves behind! Not to mention turning everything yellow!
Hello! Where do you buy that TSP cleaner??? And what brand is it?
Canadian Tire or Home Depot! Brand is Solvable
I smoke, I tried only smoking in my batherom , really bad thing! I don't smoke anywhere in my hone anywhere and definitely not in my car or home anymore!
Smoking indoors is definitely not worth it!
Great purchase Meg. You always have such a positive attitude. Just imagine what his lungs looked like 🤢. Be careful towing, don't overload the truck. Seen my fair share of jackknifed trailers. Great job, your attention to detail is incredible. Have fun.
Thank you Curtis! Appreciate that! Yes, definitely have to be careful towing this thing, balancing the weight throughout it, and watching the swing!! I'll be learning how to tow this thing soon 😬
Can TSP be used on thick cloth like car seats? Their webpage does not say anything about it
I’m not sure! I used the wet vac on the fabrics
To restore yellow faded plastic back to its white color use hydrogen peroxide
Good idea!
How’s the land shopping going? You could park the camper on a space until you build a home.
That’s a great idea! 😉
thats thing is like a mcmansion rv. that guy must have had nicotine bongs and just had community smoke parties. nice trailer though. good luck with it.
Lol definitely a McMansion!
i can tell you from an EX smokers point of view how much it stinks being anywhere that someone has smoked a lot in. i gave up smoking 20 years ago but my sister did not i let her smoke in my house when she visits but it takes me 2-3 days to get rid of the smell lol.
It definitely does make me glad I didn't continue with that habit when I go places that have been smoked in! It really does stick to everything!
Another thing that takes out smoke smell without even using electricity is calcium blocks I got calcium blocks and put them in my bus one time because I forgot I had macaroni cooking and I went to work and didn't get home because I ran out coffee shop I owned until two in the morning And it was covered with black smoke tried washing it all down still never got rid of the stink funny it didn't burn up the whole bus so I put maybe six calcium blocks in the bus and the smell was gone in a couple weeks it was amazing I couldn't believe it
For the amount of squirting you're having to do, it might be worth it to get a bug sprayer. Get the cheaper granular TSP and mix up your own.
And check the date code on those tires. Trailer tires like to explodes every few years completely unexpectedly. Full tread on those tires aren't the same as looking at car tires.
Thanks for the tips! And yes definitely gave those tires a good check to look for damage, sun rot, etc. they looked good!
@@Meg.August That's the problem with trailer tires. They LOOK good (right until the 'splode).
You really need to look at the date codes and see how old they are.
The problem is they sit for long periods of time in one place. And moisture can seep into a very small 'crack' and get the steel belts wet and make a small divot in them.
Then when you finally start towing that belt starts bending back and forth until there's an internal failure. (think: bending a coat hangar back and forth until it breaks).
Not trying to scare you, but when tires let go at speed, they tend to tear up the trailer they're connected to.
great job, but disgusting
Greetings from Germany
definitely a nasty job!! but thank you!!
Meg ur arms have to be killing you after all that work 😢😢
It was a lot of scrubbing lol!
Your AC evaporator will be quite smelly as well.
Yes it definitely was! Ran the ozone generator with the a/c and then the furnace on a few cycles and now no more smell
looks like you need a mop... paper towels might run out lol
Lol! Definitely went through a million paper towel rolls for this one
Check those tires they’ll rot faster than wear. Good deal
Thank you! This is true and I did give them a good checking and all looks good
Do *YOU* Know the Difference between having a ( DREAM ) and then it becoming a certified * N I G H T M A R E * ???? (If) the answer is *NO* then this should help YOU going forward. Time is the Concept of being able to *TRACK* Events. ANYONE can have a DREAM while awake *YET* as soon as it is ( A C T E D ) Upon - EVERYTHING - Literally Changes. Like a Budget of say 5000 bucks. Unless you directly have Three times that in reserve along for this PURCHASE as a EMERGENCY / Disaster - Piggy bank of FUNDS that are solely Dedicated ( ALL ELSE ) will then Be a Master plan of NEVER EVER going to do something So stupid and impulsive and thinking MONEY grows on trees...
SMOKERS are NOT KIND in any regards to products, surfaces, or the environment to be quite honest. Side Bar here. We were asked to Upgrade a place that two had occupied as smoker for a period of time. Just throw on some paint and get \some glade or Lysol or Febreze and spray away the disgusting fumes and residues it all came crashing down too. The First coat ( OR ) Attempt to put paint on the walls was met with INSTANT ( BLEED through ) as some water color kids play set might have used. The Version of KILZ in the oil Base version was then tried. It only began a Cover up yet as it dried To shown through was still underneath too. A second full coat of Oil Based Primer sealer was applied. Then the first coat \of paint followed by another that truly should have been TWO more making 6 total to get what many expected one to do as with most common issues. The carpet guys had to wear Vapor Maske to rip out the stained and soaked interior coverings before stating. We are un-able to continue with the previous arrangement stated. The owners / sellers wanted more info before simply blowing it off. We all sort of laughed when the BUSINESS Head honcho said LOUDLY ( YOU ) are not able to Pay for all that would need to be done here today ! ! ! HIS expert recommendation. Gut the entire place. Taking it right down to the studs and Framing members. Then have it Sprayed and sealed much like what ( WE ) were tasked with to get a Firm Grasp of what ever else was still there. They Wanted a Second and third opinion. A few local places not only stated a few month waiting list bitt also based on there own Understanding of the situation. WOULD NT Ever be able to Give a warranty or Other such product conditions that the manufacturer would normally say is included. They proclaimed. a Above and beyond Deposit along with 40 to 60 % increases in services rendered would be the very minimal they could possibly consider.
(IF) you are not of a solid Belief that these things too will come back to BITE YOU !?!?!?
Roll the dice and ( I ) swear IF there ever was a time to change your name, location, and also country as to who can come after you ??? This would be considered a Witness Protection Program Triple GOLD Star ( CUASE ) for review too.
Wow, what a buy you made, looks like the deal of the year!!! Just mind boggling how nasty smoking is, imagine what your insides must look like if the trailer looks like this!!! It is a terrible thing people do , slowly killing them selves, beyond words how bad. But I would buy this as well and take on this cleaning to have the end result. Meg, you know what a dollar is worth, and what hard work can bring to you!!!
Why didn´t you use a Steam cleaner, you only need a fraction of the time to clean any surface. In this case - which is exactly what I did - I can only recommend a chlorine cleaner. And you will reach every corner whithout any harm. However, steam cleaners may be banned in the USA and Canada. Many people in Europe use them. You even can get second hand cleaners for small money.
Kärcher is a good address. They don't just produce pressure washers!
Krud Kutter turns that nicotine to butter. Works SO GREAT!!!!
As a smoker. Don't smoke in the house. But in my 20s when living in Phoenix, Arizona. Did because of the heat. So we would wash our place from ceiling down to get rid of the build up at least once a month. Even as a smoker. Hated the nasty ashtray smell
Great job at cleaning the caravan. Just remember, you are talking about a man who has died. Respect that and stop shaming him. We all had or have bad habits. I'm sure you did as well. Compassion for people goes a long way.
I used to smoke between 20 & 30 cigarettes a day everyday. Then i got tonsillitis pneumonia and flu all straight after each other stopped smoking. Never smoked since.. i hate the smell from cigarettes.. vaping. And the price is unbelievable. Were are your gloves or your hands are going to stink of cigarettes.
So, how many bottles of TSP did you use?
All of them lol. About 2 gallons of *concentrate
just discovered your videos there great work.
I recognized where you had the trailer. Temporarily there. lol I dozed those areas for the races. So cool to see local stuff on TH-cam.
Thanks so much! And that's awesome!! Thanks for watching!
Borax soap is a cheaper way to clean and deodorize anything, a box usually only costs $5 to $6. Just remember borax is only 4% soluble in hot water, so don't try to add too much, better to just create a new batch if the previous batch is dirty.
The most worst & dangerous place to smoke cigarettes is laying down in bed!! Too many people have died from accidents of dropping the cigarettes?!😢
Very nice camper. Here in Wisconsin the campground sites would be to small to fit it. You would have to go to lake superior where people can take larger campers. They dont like to cut down the big trees used for shade here.
I knew a fellow once that worked for Air Canada back in the days when you could smoke on the plane. He said cleaning the air filters was absolutely disgusting the tar would be inches thick.
With all that Nicotine,no wonder why the guy is dead.Smoking probably took 20 years off his life.He could have bought that camper for cash with the lifetime he spent on cigarettes and health care costs.
You could have gotten your own power washer for 350.00 3400 psi
Sorry, but what's hiding under Cap, Bonnet, Hat ? is it bald head? sorry just curious
Okay we get it, you don't like smoking. But not all that gunk is smoking alone. Every time you cook on a stove oils, grease, butter and fats smoke releasing yellow particles into the confined space of a camper
how much tsp did you use to clean that trailer?
A couple gallons of concentrate lol!
I would have probably gone the route of "Replacing" any filters, just for good measure.
I used to work for an extended stay hotel, and the top and the ozone work wonders. You could let the ozone go all night long after you clean everything. We also used to put fabreeze mixed in the carpet shampoo water
May be worth a professional duct cleaning or replace the ductwork. Usually not too difficult on a RV
Watching ypu clean it reminds me of cleaning a studio apt at my mother's home that she rented to my ex mother inlaw she was smoker it took us a long time and scrubbing to clean the walls and ceiling before we could paint it to make it liveable for our daughter. We used the ex mil car her windshield had so much smoke residual it was running down the windows.
Great purchase, Meg! You did an amazing deep clean of that travel trailer! I now understand why the hotels I worked at in Banff and Jasper charged a $250 cleaning fee if someone smoked in a room.
Thank you! And yes, smoke damage is no joke and takes forever to clean!
15:21 That cutout on the sink cover is an opening for your hand to be able to remove it. The sink needs to be mounted from the bottom for the drop in to work. The idea is to provide temporary counter space since it is typically limited in campers and trailers.
Good to know!! Thank you!
Hey Meg awesome buy maybe a steamer and micro fibre cloths will come up nice hope you do some outside vids😳🤢😯
Thank you!
You almost needed one of those pump sprayers for the TSP just to give your hand a break.You did a fantastic job kid!!
That honestly would have been such a time saver lol! And thank you!!
Congrats on a huge job.You'll definitely see a profit.I swear I could smell all the smoke.
Thank you!! It really did stink!!
Windex works well on the cigarette smoke and nicotine and wont etch or dull the vanish on the woodwork
I am guessing you guys will live in there until you build your new home on the land that hopefully you were able to purchase. You guys got a fantastic deal.
that's a great idea! 😉
Imagine what the poor gentleman's lungs look like from all that smoking.
I am so impressed! I have never smoked a single cigarette and find the smell disgusting. I would need a hasmat suit to even go in there before the clean :)
😝👏👏👏👏💪
Good luck cleaning the inside of your trailer Meg
Thank you!
You should be wearing a mask and gloves. And wash it outside.
You are right - I definitely should have been wearing a mask and gloves!
How is it towing with a 1/2 ton truck?
The only way it’s possible with this half ton is because it’s a heavy duty package with higher payload and towing, otherwise it would be illegal with a regular half ton! And honestly, it’s still pretty sketchy
so much heavy breathing in the background lol
Next time you might be in a similar situation like the car wash, let the tyres down. Voila.
You are a very very brave woman Meg!! All that smell’ nicotine staining (shudder!). Great job mate! You cracked it. Enjoy the benefits of all that hard work!😍👍😍👍🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations on the mobile home❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
This video remi ds me/us of Mike Rowe "Dirty Jobs"
I'd like to have you detail my cars and trucks.
Hi Meg 👋🏻 Great work👍🏻 on a disgusting job my friend 🤢🤮 Hopefully all goes well with the trailer 🤞🏻 God Bless 🙏🏻 Appreciate you my friends 🫶🏻
Definitely a nasty job lol!! But totally worth it! Thank you so much!
I had a friend (passed sadly) who bought a building that had been a bar/ nightclub for many years. The place had been boarded up for several years. The owner that ran the bar died of a heart attack and wasn't found for several weeks. This was south Florida during the summer, so you can use your imagination....if you dare. A homeless person had set fire to the storeroom in the back and filled the place with smoke from plastic jugs.
We cracked the plywood off the front door, and my friend started to gag. Tobacco smoke, stale beer, sweat, urine, dead body, and finally, the fire smell slapped us like a brick bat!
It was a shame. It was a pretty nice building. We got jumpsuits, respirators, gloves, and boots. After a week, we realized we were in WAY over our heads. He spread the cash and got that pro company that advertises to do it.
After they were done, it was great! The only time there was any odor was on those hot, humid days, and it was closed up for a few days. It might have just been our imagination.
Less than a year later, Hurricane Andrew cleaned up the mess permanently.
But ever since then, i have hated cleaning houses.
Cheers
Terry
Back in the day, we liked Smokes it showed where all the stack was in the fuselage like around doors. just saying
Get yourself an ozone generator. Will take out any residual smell!
You can deflate your tire some to gain inches. For future reference.
No Tyvek suite and respirator? seems odd using all of those chemical without a respirator and some kind of Tyvek/Hazmat.
I definitely should have been wearing a mask and gloves
Ah, I was thinking from the title that there had been a small interior fire so was expecting ash/carbon dark black walls and ceilings, but beginning to wonder if that's much worse than 'just nictoitne' stains. I'm a smoker, have been for 32 years, but remember when I part exchanged my first car for the second at the Ford dealer, I decided I'd clean it as best I could, and using anti static foam cleaner in the plastics, the indicator/windscreen wiper stalks were coated in crap and yellow stating on trims that I stopped smoking when driving and hardly smoked much at all, but then was stuck in traffic by Birmingham (England's second largest city), and thought sod this and sparked a cig up, and sadly never stopped for any decent length of time since, but this will certainly help me slow down a little. That cleaner you used looks good, what is it? I was thinking if this was me try steam cleaning, but your cleaner seems better, but would try shampooing carpets, and going over with steam cleaner and then wet vacuuming after, you can get carpet/ car interior shampoo's with enzymes in to kill bacteria and helps get rid of odours. That was hugely satisfying to watch, especially as I wasn't cleaning 🤣but in all seriousness, that has inspired me to doing some though cleaning of my car, house etc.
You know that's a good point, I honestly wonder what would be worse - small interior fire damage or cigarette smoke damage... The cleaner I used was Solvable brand TSP. It worked very well! It does leave a bit of a chalky residue so I gave everything a secondary wipe down with some diluted Dr Bronner's soap and now everything is squeaky clean. I'm glad this video inspired you to clean!! It honestly is such a great feeling getting a space cleaned and freshened up!😊
First RULE of RVing is to know your clearance height and width. Watch those low bridges also. You all got a killer deal on that RV. Good luck. My RV TT is just about the same size as yours is.
Oh man definitely! The clearance thing is a mistake you make once lol and then (hopefully) never again!
WOW! just WOW! Meg, u deserve to get a BIG award for getting ur Trailer so clean.. So here it is! A BIG MACK_ARUBA.. congrats Meg ...
Thank you!! It definitely was lots of hard work but so worth it!
Someone behind the camera is a heavy breather. :P
Just let air out of the trailer tires and presto! gain an easy 3 inches or so!
Ok it was dirty like hell, but, you did a great deal, after clean up looks like new. I would totaly live in a trailer like that, its amazing. Congrats on your purchase. 😊👏🏻
Thanks 👍!
When I was younger I briefly had a job deep cleaning the prison cells attached to law courts. The tar on the ceiling was so thick It was like scraping congealed butter off concrete 🤢 (think we had to spray some kind of acid on it if I remember correctly)
oh wow, that would be a nasty job for sure!! 😬
make your HOUSNAND clean the RV
9:17 im trying to kill a bug on my screen..........
Saturday's with Meg, what could be better? When I saw the trailer in the "trailer" (see what I did there) my first thought was this is where we will be living while working on the new property. Nope, This was a financial move and a smart one at that Congrats on the find this should really be a win in the end. As per usual you make hard work look fun, can't wait to see what you're up to next.
lol! 😉 Thanks so much Rob! I'm excited for all the hard work and projects to come!
Very interesting project 👍 Big and spacious travel trailer, I can imagine it's very comfortable place to be in a holiday. A lot to clean too, but the result is very visible and satisfying. Most likely indeed makes nice profit when you sell it, if you want to even sell it after all ;)
My parents had caravan trailer in the 80's - 90's, much smaller though, but it was still fun way to travel around in summer holidays. Saab 99 and Opel Kadett E served as a towing cars for it, so when the caravan trailer was parked at camping area, it was easy to drive around in the car for sightseeing, shopping, etc.
Thank you! Yes, it's super spacious and comfortable, I'm very excited to use it this summer! So nice to be able to spend the holidays that way!
TSP is used in all most every cereal.
The trailer was so bad. But it really cleaned up great, The Last car wash you were at isnt far from where i live.... I really enjoy your videos
Thank you!
That's an awesome deal you guys got on that camper!
I'm right there with you on the smoke thing as well - I started in my late teens and quit in my early/mid-20s, and man, after doing some similar cleaning and also realizing (now that I've quit) just how much of a smell it leaves everywhere, I'm very glad I kicked the habit. My lungs thank me as well hahaha
Fantastic video as always! Always look forward to new projects on Saturdays!
Thank you!! I’m so happy you’re enjoying the Saturday videos! And yes definitely glad it never became a long term habit!
Hi Meg I live your Videos so much , Congratulation to your New Trailer( sorry my englisch is not so good)
Thank you so much!
You can buy TSP in a powder to make your own solution that is WAY cheaper than the premix.
Yes this is true! I went for convenience on this one, but the powder stuff works just as well
Outstanding job. As nasty as it was I bet you had a feeling of accomplishment when you were done. You now know how clean it is and will be proud to tell any new owner everything you did to make it a home away from home. 👍
Thanks so much! 😊
Amazing project! That TSP stuff is absolute black magic as far as I'm concerned! Enjoy the trailer and your travels this summer :)
Thank you! Ya that TSP stuff is next level
Looks like the previous owner(s) smoked in their for 5 or 6 years and never cleaned it. it's not like thats a weekends worth of staining or something.
Totally right, this was definitely smoked in daily
I know what it is to clean up one of those what a pain in the butt took me a couple of days to do it I like your technique with the machine that you use to get the smell out I threw bottles of Lysol to get that smell out keep up the good work big fans of the show see more of you this year girlfriend Andy from Kentucky
Thank you!!
If you are going to buy that piece of land you saw why don't you keep the trailer until you have built your house as you will have somewhere to live while you build with no rent
That's a great idea! 😉
honestly very good work on the trailer, also great advert for that tsp cleaner
lol yes tsp was the star of this project! and thank you!
I need to fix my inherited travel trailer so this is perfect viewing. Then I need to find a used F150 and fix that to tow it
Glad to hear it! Good luck with your trailer!
you should use mask
Definitely should have been using a mask, yes!
