Mini Road Trip Saturday!

So we got the trailer on Friday and it is now Sunday, and I am sure it is looking like a very different camper on the inside.

Our adventure started on Saturday, we knew that we would have to redo the roof and fiberglass seemed the way to go. We found www.fiberglasssite.com and found out they were based outside of Baltimore about an hour from us. What luck, morning road trip!! We packed into the car and headed out. Many times when we travel we need this thing called gas for our van. So we found a great convenience store in Maryland, for gas it was 2.15 a gallon, let us talk about exciting to us!

We also found the biggest can of Coke for 99 cents.

Not to our destination so we continued on and about 30 minutes later arrived. The man at Fiber Glass Site happened to be working that Saturday so we were able to discuss in detail what we were going to do and he was able to calculate how much fiberglass and resin we would need. We ended up purchasing 1.5 oz chopped mat, a 5 gallon bucket of polyester resin, and a roller thing with spikes.

Note: We ended up spending about $200 on this part of the project, but the materials are pool grade so if it ever leaks it will be surprising,do it once do it right.

I highly suggest if you are looking at replacing the top of your camper looking into this, if you are doing tons of work, then best to make it as tight as you can.

We then got to have some family road trip fun and go across the street from the fiberglass place to a pizza shop, This is Hilltop Pizza. We order a large cheese pizza and a 2 liter of coke for the family and with a bill of $9, mommy the accountant was very happy!
