Possibly Travel/Trailer siding. Probably meaning aluminum "skin" used on travel trailers...

t/t stands for travel trailer. the first time i saw it i had to call to find out. yes, i am wondering if there is a supplier for the outer skin for t/t's, i've looked at some posts & didn't find any supplier to the outer covering except wood. i dont know if wood would be appropiate for the sides for a 6' tall X 8' lng t/t, i'm taking this 1 step at a time. will be using 1/2" treated for floor, then covering w/ 1/8" plywood.

Check into places where they do motorhome or truck trailer repairs... You can skin trailer with aluminum sheet (sheet metal), fiberglass panels, Filon(sp?) (sort of fiber glass material) or just have it natural wood...

You have to sort of think outsider of the box and be a little creative....

There is a place in Hollister Ca that sells Filon sheet ...
