Anyone ever tried to use these to skin the sides or cover the roof of a Teardrop? I was in Home Depot today and I was looking at them, very bendable and 100% waterproof, my only concern is if they are very UV resistant and if not if they were painted then would they be and how well would paint stick . One side is smooth the other sort of textured they costs about $29.00 for a 4x8 they are available in 4x8, 4x9, & 4X10 anyone have any thoughts on using these?

MRW , I used it on my build. I did the walls & top. It sat outside for almost 3 years & never had an issue with yellowing or turning brittle. It washed up real good when it got dirty, it also stayed cool in sunlite. You can paint it to give it more protection if your worried about uv. Just this fall I changed to woody sides because I liked the look alot more. If you look in my album you can see for yourself the difference. The top is still frp . Good luck on your build.
