How Do You Trim An RV Window?
If you’re like most campers, you love the convenience and openness of your RV’s windows. But like any outdoor space, your RV’s windows can be a little too big for some things and a little too small for others.
Here are a few tips on how to trim an RV window:
- Measure your window and buy the right trimming tools:
Before you start trimming your window, you’ll first need to measure the opening. Use a ruler or a tape measure to find the width of the window and the height of the trim.
Next, you’ll need the right tools. A trimming saw will make the job much easier, but you can also use a jigsaw or a coping saw. Make sure to have a good blade for the job, and wear safety goggles, a dust mask, and gloves.
- Cut the trim to fit:
Once you’ve measured the opening and have your tools ready, it’s time to start cutting the trim. Take your time and make sure the trimming is precise. You don’t want any gaps or overlaps, which can increase your chances of wind and rain entering your RV.
- Clean up the trimming:
Once you’re finished trimming the window, it’s time to clean up the mess. Wipe down the window and the trim with a cloth or a vacuum cleaner. Make sure to get behind the trim and clean up any dust or debris that may have been hidden behind it.
- Apply a sealant:
If you’d like to protect your window trim from the elements, you can apply a sealant. This will help keep the trim looking good and protect it from weathering and damage.
Just be sure to follow the instructions on the sealant bottle, and make sure to clean the area before you apply it. Now that you know how to trim an RV window, you’re ready to keep your space looking great.
