[I posted in the FWC forum but wanted to tap the talented resources here as well!]
Greetings,
The ceiling headliner in my '01 Granby is, little by little, turning into dust. From what I've read here it may be due to mold "eating" the material after it got wet. Now the reason it got wet was that FWC uses very course sheet metal screws which work themselves loose and allow rain/snow melt to enter. I have solved that problem by silicon sealing (the UV enhanced variety) all the screw heads. Unfortunately, through ignorance, I didn't do much mold prevention.
I doubt FWC will help me old with resolving the issue and so I'm looking for creative ways to install another liner w/o the $1000+ (plus travel expense) to rebuild the whole roof. The hardest part will be around the ceiling perimeter but I wonder if I could install wood trim around the edges just to keep the material stretched and give it a finished look.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Marty
