Club 80-90 Forums

Hope this is the correct forum, if not please move it. (thanks).
I have stripped out the interior from my high top. (well, the "downstairs" anyway).
The wooden flooring was rottten and stinking. Various wires needed to be cut because of the way they were fitted. Including split charger relay. I have a fair bit of panel welding to do as well.
Now, I have several questions
1) What's the best, economical way to rust treat large areas?
2)Can anyone point me in the right direction for the link for the wiring diagram for the split charger, using a relay (I know it's here somewhere but my brain is arguing with my PC at the moment
3)What should I be doing to the interior whilst all units are out (spare wiring for later additions etc) to save hassle when units are back in. (I'm using old units as templates and using all new wood. Either MDF or ply. Probably ply 'cos it's lighter.
4)Is ply the only alternative for lining the floor before putting down the final covering? (Waterproof MDF is mega expensive ).
5)Anyone managed to fit a shower in a hightop? If so, how?
6)What's best for removing black mould from material which can't be washed in a machine (mattress covers which are stitched on etc).

That'll do for now.
If there's a link to most of the above that would be great but I can't find one.
Sorry if this is a bit much to ask.
Thanks

I can't offer much help with your other questions I'm afraid Keith, but I'm following your progress with interest.

1. If it's surface rust, then I would remove as much as possible, treat, paint and possibly brush a thin layer of grease rather than waxoil over the affected areas.

3. Future expansion of the wiring system is difficult to predict but you need to consider the fridge, extension speakers, additional mains sockets, etc if required. Plan for items that won't connect directly to the leisure battery feed........

4. The floor, difficult again but I would be looking at marine ply rather than standard ply. I have used compressed fibre board in building applications but it is not as stable as marine ply but durable and hard wearing, also cheap but not my first choice.

5. The only conversion I have seen with a shower is the Dehler Profi.....here http://www.camperinterior.webfotos.co.u ... ehler.html

6. Can't help....thats the other halfs teritory and she's in Bed!

I am thinking more of which products to use, and it's inside mainly. Floor, inner seams etc.
Thanks for all replies (and the link Tony).
