Bruiser is coming right along!!

I just wanted to show my progress and the stages I've seen Bruiser go thru in the past long but short 2 1/2 months!

I'm so excited!!!

Yaaay!

What do we say to the God of rust? "Not today."

Very nice work, looks great. Love the faux brick.

Wow! Looks great! I cannot wait to get to that stage in my bus; I think it is going to take me longer than a couple of months.

Using the brick covering on the walls is unique. I like it. What gave you that idea? Any tricks to installing it or advantage of going that direction?

Adv: its easy to install and cut and it's light weight. No sheetrock needed.
Dis: is coat 35 per 4x8 panel.
Plus: i used left over for my steps in the walk way. Worked perfect.
Advice: don't use air compressor to stick it on. Use grey finishing nails and nail them on the brick pieces. And follow the brick design to keep a flow. Also put liquid nail ultimate behind it in on the studs.
My dad gave me the idea actually! Well a wall instead of curtains. I saw a wish ad for stick on brick squares and just found these at HD and was like thats it.
