Subject:Re: Has anyone refinished the inside of their Westfalia's poptop

We did a fun thing...

We removed all the fuzzy by scraping. We then bought one of those
bedspreads that have the neat celtic knots on them (black ink knotwork on a
blue cloth) stretched and stapled it along where the plywood attaches to
the poptop.
