Dominion Sure Seal BEZLG EZ Liner Bedliner and Industrial Coating

Even though a little messy EZ Liner was easy to put on and so far looks great. I would recommend spraying it as that would be faster and a more even coating but I am still happy with it.

4 Seasons

I am excited to see how this works for the van. It is a Solar Attic Fan.

*Update! It is working awesome so far. Nice and quiet and it has made it so much easier working in the van on these hot summer days. 13 Aug 2017.*

Featuring a lightweight and extremely durable ABS-PC anti-UV/Freeze construction, the 4 Seasons attic vent can withstand weather conditions such as strong winds, hail and freezing rain. http://amzn.to/2sA0Y9c

Bambi ~ 1985 Dodge RAM E-250 Custom Camper Van

I was so very excited when I put a deposit on my very 1st Van at the beginning of September 2016. The Australian couple selling it where still holidaying in it so I had to wait until the 29th of September. Oh my goodness, I couldn't stop squealing! I straight away decided to her Bambi due to the giant picture of deer on one side of the van and a Moose on the other. Not too sure how I will go stealth parking in it as it is rather memorable. So little more information about Bambi: She is a 1985 Dodge RAM E-250 Custom Camper Van. I can't tell you how happy I am that my first van is a Dodge! It came with everything you need for camping so I was hoping to take it out for weekend test runs but the winter in Vancouver was horrible so didn't end up going anywhere. The campervan was in a great condition, NO RUST, NO LEAKS, (the above mentions winter changed that) 18 foot long (5.5 meters), 120,000 km, Automatic Transmission, very good tires and bra...

Painted the inside of my van with EZ Liner.

Finally, I am adding to the van instead of pulling it apart! From just wanting to change the size of the bed to having to pull everything out. I did a lot of research on insulation for the van and one YouTube video I watch (will link if I can find it) the guy was painting the whole outside of his van with truck bed liner. It looked great and he also mentioned that if the inside of his van wasn't already built he would use the low VOC bed liner on the inside as it is good for sound absorption and it seals out moisture and corrosion. Bambi is a 1985 Dodge camper van and even before I found all the things needed to be fixed I wanted to coat her with a bed liner. I had already bought some EZ Liner before I even took the first screw out because I was going to coat at least the floor in a truck bed liner, as I knew I was ripping out the 30+-year-old carpet. I went with this brand because it was the only one that I could find that was closest to what the guy had used as I am...
