Where to buy-vinyl flooring for trailer
Its been on my "to do" list for years......wanting to install black & white checker vinyl flooring in my race car trailer
Had a source that you could purchase in the right width for a typical trailer at what length you needed. Guess what........my source can no longer get it Any one know of a source that I can go to? |

You should be able to find "peal and stick" 12" x 12" tile.
If not you can get 12" x 12" VCT tile that you have to use a adhesive to glue down, but it is tough as nails. |

I did my trailer with 12"X12" glue down tile in 1999, It still holding up well..
One thing I learned though is that you need diamond plate where the wheel contact patch is, otherwise the movement of the car in the trailer will pry up the tiles at the wheel locations.. I used 16" wide diamond plate 12' long.

Why would there be a ton of waste ? Buy a piece 12x16 and cut it in half = 2 pcs. 8x12. Butt them end to end = 8x24. Install it all the way forward and cover the one foot of gap with some aluminum plate. No waste or did I miss something ? You might have to buy maybe a little more just to have a perfect seam but that should be minimal.
