Any sugg’s 4 best paint 4 veneer ‘wood’ n a popup tent trailer and any1 no sum1 cheap to redo curtains/seats?
trying to really ‘classy-up’ my tent trailer with elegant fabric and soothing colors. Can’t take the loud/busy/extra fabric they seem to throw on all the functional pieces. Want to spruce everything up within a budget. Already found GREAT wholesale fabric, want to replace curtains/dinette seats/ and paint. Would love ANY good suggestions. Thanks in advance!!

You will need a good primer for your “veneer”.
Go to Home Depot and get the primer called “Gripper” by Glidden. The best!!! You now are ready to paint it whatever color you like.
Glidden or Benjamin Moore paint is great quality.
If you can sew a straight stitch, then you can make new curtains. Same goes with cushions. You can recover them yourself. Just use the old fabric for a basic pattern.
As far as the dinette seats — if they are attached to the chair, take them off, replace them with new fabric using a staple gun and put the seats back on.
You CAN do this youself. You’ve got the fabric, now get busy!!! ♥
