Travertine is a soft high maintenance stone. Something in the color tone of travertine would look nice but not a good idea to use for a trailer.

If you decide to do it I'll come and watch and pit crew for you.
No -- Charley and his buddies (Pete and Chet) and I are doing Thunderhill that weekend. I even see that Jack M signed up to be there - and he's the one that built my car so it will be fun to meet him.

Better than spending your own money on it. You sure dodged that bullet. Smart, very smart.

We are experiencing very good performance and customer satisfaction with this Armstrong product: http://www.armstrong.com/flooring/alterna-qr.html

It's a spin-off of Congoleum's DuraCeramic http://congoleum.com/dura.html which we have been installing in our market for 4 years now. We've actually layed it over a couple ceramic tile floors with success, definite improvement in appearance and sensory perception. 50-65% thinner than average tile, better accoustics, will handle minor subfloor defection without cracking, sand latex grout system.

It would enhance the Toterhomes HP to weight ratio while resisting torsional flex under extreme cornering loads.

Thinking about painting the entire rig PPG Barcelona Blue.... with polished stainless steel down the bottom 2' - and a stainless steel beavertail door....


Here's the color.
