Ian Taylor Posted February 17, 2023 Posted February 17, 2023 Hi all,ive got a 2007 HOBBY VAN and the shower wall is looking dull and jaded. Is it possible to rewaterproof it..? I was thinking of a clear silicon paint like u may put on an external wall,any thoughts or experience anyone?
Derek Uzzell Posted February 17, 2023 Posted February 17, 2023 Are you considering over-painting the 'dotted' surfaces evident in this photo?
Globebuster1 Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 If you really think it's necessary, why don't you clad it with lightweight PVC panels or thin Foamex, - I'm sure that would look much better. I don't think painting is a good move, but that will depend on the substrate, what is the current wall covering? Ahh - I see Derek has posted a photo - I would rule out the paint idea! And from a resale point of view, I think a repaint would be very off-putting to a potential buyer.
ColinM50 Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Agree with Globebuster, painting will affect the resale value as well as looking a bit crap. IMHO lightweight shower panels would be a better solution, just stck over the existing substrate. e.g. https://www.plasticshub.com/products/bathroom-wall-panels/1m-shower-panels/?gclid=Cj0KCQiAi8KfBhCuARIsADp-A54wXKpAQ5z62yycMV2yE1VUJPAsqWmn432NNqz1jCm_ydY3K7HvkvYaAl1TEALw_wcB Though Google has loads
