Paint cabinet knobs for an updated look, is easy and saves money!
How to paint your knobs!
Painting cabinet knobs for an updated look, is easy and saves money.
Saves money. Easy.
Our 1985 Sun Stream Motorhome (Slight Remodel) can really benefit from some
updated cabinet hardware. Especially since we plan on painting the cabinets white.
A slight remodel is what we're doing, so saving money and keeping things easy
is our goal.
Here's a quick and easy way to paint your knobs!
Rustoleum Hammered paint is my favorite paint for a project like this.

How to Paint your Motor home Stove Range or Vent Hood.
How to Paint your Motor home Stove Range or Vent Hood.
Rather than buy a new one, I decided to use some spray paint
to give the range hood a newer look.
Trying to save money on this slight remodel is pretty high on our list.
I was glad to see how well the range hood turned out.

1985 Sun Stream Motorhome Tour
1985 Sun Stream Motor home Tour.
Here's a tour a 1985 Sun Stream motor home made by Gulf Stream Coach Company.
This motor home is going to have a slight remodel, on a budget of course.
We're going to use it to go see America.
Everything works and it really needs to be cleaned, polished and shined up.
General maintenance needs to be done as well.
It's 32 feet long, has a Chevy 454 motor and transmission and it's in decent shape.
There will be videos for everything that is done and hopefully it'll be useful to people.
RV tips and tricks too.
It's a learning process.
I'm not scared.
It really needs a name..
Leave your name suggestion in the comments!
Any tips or trick you RVer's have leave them in the comments!
They will be appreciated!

1985 Motorhome- A slight Remodel. For Cheap!
Going to interior remodel the 1985 (nameless motorhome)
We have a budget of $300.00.
Here's the short list of our project.
1. Laminate Floors.
2. Redo Counter Tops.
3. Replace cabinet hardware.
4. Paint the interior.
5. Paint the interior light covers and fixtures.
6. Paint the cabinets.
7. Redo the booth dinette table top.
Our budget is very small.
I fully plan to utilitze my CheapGeek abilities and take advantage of
these acquired skills to make the Motor home more modern looking.
I'll be documenting everything.
Hopefully, I'll have some good tips and tricks for you.
Here's a tip- If your budget is as small as ours, you'll have a hard time at the big box stores.
Check out alternatives like close out stores,thrift stores or the Good Will.
Check around for the Habitat for Humanity Thrift Stores too.
There's lots of construction and finishing materials left over from the houses they build.
Those material are normally reasonable in cost and will be useful.
Here's a link to Habitat for Humanity store locator-

Coleman Campstove 425F Refurb -Stupid Project #4
These stoves are around $100.00.
I find them at Thrift stores for under $10.00.
Some sanding and new paint, goes a long way to make these stoves last forever.
Tip-You can find out how old a Coleman Stove is by looking at the numbers
on the bottom of the stove.
