Hi

At Copeton several of the BTs sported the new camec lightweight flooring instead of the heavy green rubber flooring.

Any problems like too slippery with the Camec flooring. A caravan accessories outlet refused to sell the product saying it was too slippery and dangerous.

Thanks for any input,

Jay

Hi Jay,

We bought one of these earlier this year.

However, the weather Gods have smiled on us and we have only had 4 or 5 days of wetness in 5 months of travelling. Can't comment on the sliperyness when wet, as this is an experience we have yet to have. Can tell you its great in dry camps, but we had problems at Lawn Hill in the dust. We finished up putting newspaper under it to stop the dust coming through.

I noticed yesterday that Caravan Accessories (Camec) in Kogarah (Sydney) have them on the shelf and available for sale

Hi Jay,
We bought our floor from Camec a couple of years ago. Best thing since sliced bread. We dont use it at every camp, it just depends on the ground. If we have nice grass, it stays packed up. These floors are very expensive but well worth it. They are also one of the only floors that some van parks allow you to put down, as the grass does actually grow through it. They are not slippery either. One tip though, get one that is long enough to go from your door to the cargo door, not just to the end of the annexe. We find we are constantly going into the cargo door or we have the coking table set up near the cargo door, so it's nice to have the floor long enough to cover that area.
