Stairwell is done except for a transition strip at threshold ....

Trim is "Pewter" and seams are caulked in grey.

Thanks !!

Pretty much finished today. Added the flat pewter carpet strip between Allure and door threshold (underside is caulked at threshold). Added flat stain-matched oak seam moulding for transition from old oak to new oak flooring. Added an under-sill detail at slide window (old trim was a bit narrow for my liking due to old sofa height). Replaced the seat belt sleeves on driver and passenger seats (old ones were damaged/creased). Breakfast tomorrow with my DW !! .... she's seen pictures but has not actually seen the inside (she leaves me alone when I'm using power tools ). Maybe some pictures of the finished project tomorrow. Whole RV now smells neutral ... not missin' the 15 year old carpet.

BTW, started the CAT today after sitting for 5 weeks ... probably under 3 secs of cranking and it was running.

What a great job, and you're a fast worker. I'm still fiddling along with the trim on my slide extension. I've learned a lot from your thread, and enjoyed Ernie's tips also.
