'97 Prostar 190 New Carpet? Opinions needed on products and tips on installation
I have a 1997 Prostar 190, got her 3 years ago...It has been a gradual refurb.
Despite 1540 hours the engine is in great shape after getting some TLC this last off season. I put in a new interior the first year and skipped the carpet. I am preparing my myself to redo the carpet this winter. I am looking for opinions on products especially from people who recarpeted DIY, and I am looking for tips on the actual installation process. I am a visual learner so pictures of the process would help. I have searched the forum high and low. I find mentions of new carpet but no real how to and what to use. All help is appreciated...Thanks in advance...

I replaced mine this winter, bought the carpet on ebay, it was a place in Dalton Ga, I had them send me a sample piece before I ordered it, and seemed to be good quality, I think it was 20oz, for glue I used outdoor carpet glue from Lowe's you put it down with a notched trowel, and for the places where I turned the carpet under (around edges) and on smaller parts I used contact cement, be careful pulling your old carpet out so you will have a pattern, not a bad job, just be patient and make sure it fits before you glue it.

Check out Corinthian Marine carpet. They have the good stuff.
