When I purchased this 1984, 13' Scamp trailer, It was supposed to be a Light.. DIY Remodel. I had NO IDEA it would turn into an entire gut job!
But, I discovered moldy smells that made it hard to breathe!
The mold was in the carpeting on the walls! Uggh

When I began pulling the carpeting off the walls, there was a type of pink bubble wrap behind the carpet, acting like an insulation barrier. I left that up. The carpeting actually pulled off fairly easy. I had to use this tool in a few places to cut it out.
Below is a picture after the carpeting was removed from the door.
Before I began, I sprayed all the walls with this to kill any lingering mold. The grey part is where I sprayed.
You can see from this picture I tried replacing the walls in the same pattern and HUGE pieces that came down. Here's what I used for the walls.
It was not easy dealing with these HUGE pieces!
When I got to the ceiling.. that's when I began a new process! Cutting the material into wide, long strips! Brilliant!!!!
OMGoodness, SO MUCH EASIER!
I used a ton of this and lots of straight pins to hold it up until it was dry.
I continued this process around the horse trough bathtub area and the door.
Here's the old door with the filthy carpeting...
I applied this technique to the door,, so much easier!
And the final result on the door, showing the strips of material!
