Bathroom Vent Fan Caulk Replacement Turned Full Restoration

What started as a simple task of replacing the aging caulk around my RV's bathroom vent fan quickly turned into a much bigger project. I initially planned to remove the old caulk, reseal the edges, and call it a day. However, upon closer inspection, I discovered that the fan casing had rusted significantly. Rather than replacing the entire fan, I decided to restore and improve it by removing the rust and applying a durable powder-coated finish.

• If you choose to replace the bathroom fan, it is available on Amazon: VENTLINE/DEX VP543 6" 12V Powered Round Vent
• Butyl Tape for sealing fan into roof: Dicor BT-1834-1 Butyl Seal Tape - 1/8" x 3/4" x 30' 
• Polyurethane Sealant: Sika Sikaflex-221 White or Sikaflex 521 White (more UV resistant)

Time to Change Your Wiper Blades! (Costco Deal & Short Installation Guide)

It’s that time of year again—time to swap out your old wiper blades! Right now, Costco has Michelin Guardian wiper blades on sale for just $7.99 each. At this price, it’s hard to beat.

This is my first time using these blades, and so far, I’m impressed—they’re smooth, quiet, and don’t chatter or squeak. The only downside? The IKEA-style instructions are nearly impossible to decipher, and even an online search didn’t help.

So, I figured it out myself and put together a quick tutorial to save you the hassle. Apologies for the less-than-stellar cinematography—filming with one hand while installing with the other is no easy task!

Enjoy the video, and happy wiper swapping! You’re welcome.

The Ultimate Compact Camp Chair: My Go-To After 5 Years of Use

After almost five years of heavy use, I can finally say with confidence that this is the camp chair I wholeheartedly recommend. It might not be for everyone, but when it comes to compactness, portability, and ease of use, it has been my favorite chair.

Over the years, I’ve tested multiple camp chairs—some incredibly comfortable but bulky and difficult to store. If you own a camper or RV, you know that storage space is at a premium. The last thing you want is a chair that takes up half your available storage.

This chair solves that problem. I can set it up and store it away in seconds! Despite its small footprint, I find it just as comfortable as the larger, bulkier chairs I’ve owned. I personally have a pair of these Cliq chairs, and they come with their own portable storage bags, making them even easier to stow away.

Just to be clear—I have no affiliation with the company, nor am I being paid for this recommendation. I’m just genuinely impressed with this chair and wanted to share my experience.
