Decorative Touches - Passport Elite 23RB

We purchased our 2016 Passport Elite 23RB back in May. Unfortunately, our summer has been so busy, we've only been out once. So I've kept myself entertained by sprucing it up and adding some personal touches. Thought I'd share some photos of the kitchen area. It's been fun but I'm ready to get out and enjoy it!

(The backsplash is from Smart Tiles in the Idaho Mosaic pattern.)

Looks great! Do you have to remove the wallpaper first?

Yes, they are peel and stick, and no grouting. We put them in our Hi-Lo before we sold it. Looked good! http://www.thesmarttiles.com/en_us/idaho/

Did you scuff up the wall were they were installed? Saw a video online that you needed to scuff up the wall but my RV is brand new so the walls have no contamination on them.

We cleaned the old wall covering with 409 if I remember correctly and then wiped it all down with denatured alcohol to insure a good clean surface.

Definitely no scuffing. But as Notanlines mentioned, you need to clean the walls really well with a degreaser and let it dry thoroughly before applying.
