Hi Gang,
My name is Paige Rike, and I'm new to the
group. My husband and I bought a 1965 Globetrotter last month, and since
it's our first we're on a steep learning curve. While I know very
little about Airstreams as of today, I have used Armstrong and Mannington
commercial vinyl tiles in 3 different kitchens. The tiles are great
looking, sturdy, and really inexpensive. The only problem I have found is
this: if *any* particle gets under the tiles as they are installed, over
time it will crack the tile. The installers of our first tile floor used a
new dustpan broom with soft bristles to try to get all the debris off as they
went. I'd say we went without cracks for the first 5-6 years, and
now we've got a few. It's worth the trouble to try and get the
plywood as clear as you can.
I hope that helps.
Paige
