Completed slide out fascia remodel.

Bold look, but the black goes very well and enhances the countertops in the kitchen color, updates it very nicely. I was surprised by how good it does look!

Now a medallion for the center of the galley slide......and I want to clear silicone around the base of the leg by the kitchen sink, to prevent water penetration into the new trim. All the black is primer/paint combo and the trim was primed, so it has a double coat of primer and paint.

That was what started all this slide remodel in the first place was all the old bubbly water penetrated mdf that had come loose over the years. Shouldn't (knock on wood-lol) have that issue anymore....

I'm stopping for this year. Carpet (new flooring) is on the big wish list next year or two....

Not fun things but on the back burner that need to be done:

I have to get the furnace vent re-located (yes, procrastination, I know) under the sofa....

Maybe a medallion for the center of the galley slide....

Need to wallpaper/fill the holes in the dinette about knee high where the old booths were anchored....

Install new rear and front cap marker lights.....

Re-paint the cabinet hinges to match the handles, just gonna spray paint them the nickel....unless I find new ones cheaper.....

Maybe new backsplash for the kitchen area, some of those cool panels that look like metal but are really just vinyl....

Work on the cable signal for the local antenna....

Plus of course the normal maintenance of course, including an annual maintenance coat of Poli Glow....

hmmmmm.....I guess there's always something to do eh!

These panels fit nicely and will update the galley a little bit.
These are the stick and no grout from Lowe's. They look great and tie in the new handles, the new curtain fabrics, sofa, all together!

The new panels are stick in place, are not installed yet, I just set them up there to see what they look like.

I will remove the flower wallpaper border between the plexiglass divider and the window.....

I haven't decided whether I'll run it all the way up to the cabinets or just the one layer across.

Either way, it really helps the look of the countertops and updates it quite nicely.

That's going to look nice, Kent. If it were me, I'd go all the way up to the cabinets. If we didn't have the corian backsplash I'd be buying those, too.

Lincolnboy2 · 01-29-2014, 07:49 AM

I think thats best too. Will run it all the way to the bottom of the cabinets.

whem2fish · 01-29-2014, 08:23 AM

Agree it will look great

Lincolnboy2 · 01-30-2014, 08:49 AM

I need to find someone who has a wet saw to help install that stuff that knows what they are doing. I need to talk to my neighbor, she has a great flooring/tile contractor friend....

Kent send the pic I sent you to your email so you can blow it up she bought it at Lowe's I used to install tile on the side the last time I did tile like that was 20 years ago get a part number of the tile so I can look at it if is what I think the tiles are held together with basically thick screen if like that we cut strait cuts with a box cutter through the screen I'm open after church if needed to look at it get me a part number or post a pic of the back of the tile
