I wanted something that would last, and suited the furniture I've planned to make.
So after much deliberation, I opted for the Polyflor Modena PUR, in Jetstone.
First up, was to bond in some 9mm inserts into the recesses in the floor.
Next up was to carefully cut out and screw in the 12mm ply flooring. Before fitting the flooring, I lay the Polyflor over the top and trimmed it to an exact copy of the ply flooring, this way I new I'd only have minor trims to do once in the van.
Now because I dont want to see any screw heads or lump in the floor, I tightened them all down so they were flush, then gave the flooring a good covering of the F60 adhesive.
A little tip for you, keep all the doors and windows open, as after a few minutes in there you wont remember what you were meant to be doing!
And after a bit of massaging the bubbles out with a heat gun and a roller, the end result looks like this.
Now to mock up the furniture and make the wiring loom for it all..
Hi, just wanted to say that I love your blog and thanks for writing it! We're about to embark on a conversion of our T5 we bought a few weeks ago - reading this has been super useful! Keep up the great work. DZ
ReplyDeleteHI David, Thanks for your comments, it's nice to know someone is reading what I've been writing. (and not just family because I've told them too).
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to keep us informed with how you get on with your own conversion. Its a minefield with a lot of choices, but it's good fun. Best of luck with it all, and if there is anything you'd like to ask me, please feel free.
