Next I poxed on two layers of Luan and started tenting and putting the Heat to it.

For the the next two weeks I worked under plastic, so no shots. With my Pox slowing down, my to do list got short. I got the ALU on the top with my skylight installed and trimmed it. But with no time left I was able to only get a single coat of Pox on the trim and literally gave the Tear a seal of Silicone the morning I left for Alaska.
Some where in Idaho along the Salmon River.[/url]

A note on my design. I canned the Idea of an opening hatch on the top because I might have to park the Tear in Whittier Alaska. This is a place with 200" inches of rain a year, where you get in the shower to get out of the rain. I wanted to be sure it didn't leak. As it turned out I parked the Tear in Anchorage except for a week jaunt with the Lady touring the Kenai.
And sure enough when my Fish Season was over and I picked up the Geo the rain had been driven so hard in Whittier that it was forced past the Windows and Door seals and the first place I went was to a carwash vac to suck as much of the water out of the car as I could. Did I mention the mold?
Glad I gave up on the Hatch.
So It is now fall and the trailer was a pleasure this summer but took a fair number of road dings over the last 7000 miles. With the Tear in the Garage I sanded the trim down stripped what was left of the silicone, and applied four coats of Pox and a new paint job.
She's looking good.
Now for a new trailer, I want much softer springs than the #3500 I have under the Utility trailer, and of course brakes.
So I am off to the Construction tips, I'll be more dilligent about pics.
