I am currently totally re-building out the inside of my comp trailer. New interior aluminum walls, new stainless cabinets, new fold out bunks, etc.
My trailer currently has a linoleum type flooring. It is discolored, has a few rips in it, and is just too old and nasty looking to leave in a re-built trailer. So, I purchased a roll of the rubber coin flooring and will be installing it tomorrow if all goes as planned. This being the case, here are my questions:
1) Is it OK to install this on top of the old linoleum flooring? I tried pulling up a small corner of the linoleum and it starting pulling apart immediately. I'm afraid that I am going to get into a bad mess if I try to rip out the linoleum. The old flooring is coming up a bit in a couple of the corners, but I can secure it down where needed.
2) Should I glue the new rubber coin flooring down to the linoleum? I am assuming that I should, but I figured that it is better to ask opinions on this.
3) Are there any other things that I should consider when installing this floor?
I am spending a quite a bit of money to get the trailer interior re-finished, so I definitely want this done right. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for the help!
