Hit the linoleum with a heat gun or hair dryer to warm it up a bit, and it should flatten out.

[@WaywardWaggs]

Thanks for the tip. We will try that.

[@rick-Zina]

great suggestion, I was literally about to tell them the same thing..

[@nexttrekkingadventure]

👍👏Nicely done.. you can use a Hair dryer to heat that linoleum up to get that flap to straighten out.

[@WaywardWaggs]

Good to know......I'm not sure we own a hair dryer though. 😂

[@nexttrekkingadventure]

@@WaywardWaggs lol 😂

[@bradw7379]

That's the "quality" Alliance is known for. Thank you Brinkley for giving us a better option!

[@WaywardWaggs]

Competition makes every manufacturer try to do better, so I'm sure Alliance welcomes the competition.

[@jdc2942]

Great video, hilarious !!

[@crossroadsrvtravels]

Awesome attitude and sense of humor!

[@WaywardWaggs]

Thanks. Comic relief was the only thing I could contribute. 😕

[@rickgriffith1]

Good friends are great to have.👍🏼😎

[@WaywardWaggs]

For sure

[@kayefink8293]

We had the same problem and it irritated my brother-n-law so much that he came over and fixed it lol

[@JarheadAndGingersJourney]

Scott said to use a hairdryer to flatten out the linoleum. Nice job. 😁

[@brucefranklin6765]

Payment by alcohol is always the best! I’ve done plenty of trim repairs on our 5th wheel.

[@WaywardWaggs]

👍🏻🥃

[@kennethhurrensr351]

Nice work 👍👍

[@kevinjones6638]

It's good to know your limitations. KUTGW

[@philconfer4192]

We met John at Bulow in Florida last June. Nice people very knowledgeable

[@WaywardWaggs]

Yes, they are wonderful people and John is very knowledgeable!

[@TravelingonAdventures]

"Will work for Bourbon"!

[@WaywardWaggs]

Yes! 🥃

[@chadkoller7809]

Great video and we subscribe to Coddi

[@ricktaylor6373]

Brian candy has the idea of heat gun or hair dryer on it, that should lay the linoleum flat. 👍

[@sherriweber7105]

Leslie saying true sorry after you said you’d break this. That was funny. She knows you all well Dustin. Lol! Sorry about Dustin!

[@WaywardWaggs]

🤣 Yes she does.

[@Spenttheirinheritance]

great tips

[@pedalpower4832]

Great solution guys. I have been looking at buying a 310rl and noticed several trailers at various dealers that have the same issue. Keep up the awesome videos!

[@WaywardWaggs]

Thank you. It turned out to be way easier than we thought it would be.

[@allendianastorm6505]

We are 310RL Paradigm owners. This is a problem with a lot of the Alliances (maybe others too). We solved our issue with an exacto knife and trimmed the vinyl NOT the wall.

[@WaywardWaggs]

We trimmed the vinyl first and it didn't help much. Shaving the wall fixed it.

[@scotttunstall9513]

Our new Paradigm 340RL has the very same issue!

[@WaywardWaggs]

Luckily it is an east fix.

[@scotttunstall9513]

The black tank and a gray tank valve are mislabeled too!

[@timf6916]

Time outs are good

[@melodyassaro]

Dustin did a good job supervising. I need friends like yours for those repairs that always seem to be done

[@WaywardWaggs]

Having handy friends definitely comes in handy.

[@Elizabeth-rq1vi]

It was “only a flesh wound”! 😂

[@WaywardWaggs]

😂

[@roger80465]

A multitool is my most used tool in my 340. We just did that on 2 corners of our slides. The difference is that I just put a piece of cardboard on the floor to protect it then used my $30 Harbor Freight tool to cut off 1/4 inch. Didn't have to remove the molding. Well worth the investment.

[@WaywardWaggs]

We will probably put on some flat molding to cover up the gap.

[@roger80465]

@@WaywardWaggs Are you referring to the gap along the sidewall or the face trim? If you are talking about the sidewall, I suspect you could get a short piece of trim from Alliance at the rally in May as 1 of your 'simple' repairs.

[@tg9388]

thanks for sharing the issue and the fix, please keep them coming for all of us to watch and learn!

[@WaywardWaggs]

👍🏻 Will do

[@christhomas9837]

I don't know what make your slides are but some makes you're not supposed to stop them halfway and then reverse. Hopefully this helps until you check into your model/make.

[@TheRoadSMITHS]

We have the same issue. Not so bad though. Power tools and RV interior sounds mutually exclusive. Haha.

[@WaywardWaggs]

🤣

[@melduncanakamelnetteliving9892]

Great video and its nice to have people with different perspectives to assist. The only thing I get out of wood is SPLINTERS…. Im sure many people will fix their own slides seeing how it’s done. Be safe friends 👍👍👏❤️

[@WaywardWaggs]

I never get splinters......because I don't work on stuff. 🤣

[@N2it4Now]

Thanks for the video. I'll have to check ours when we get it out from winter storage. Rock on Waggs!

[@CoddiwompleTravelers]

So much fun! We had a blast hanging out with you two! BTW, my thumb did heal up.... finally 🤣Glad we could help!

[@WaywardWaggs]

We are glad to hear you didn't have to have it amputated. 🤣

[@derrekbrack9060]

Any chance you can share a link or the info on the nail gun you used, I need to look into getting one

[@richardlaborde6460]

It’s always scary working on visible parts of your rv. Best way to get experience is to work on someone else’s rv…😜 If you mess up, at least you won’t be able to see it from your rv…😂 Great video y’all!

[@WaywardWaggs]

🤣

[@gregspence2202]

Set a pan of warm water on the linoleum? Karen and Greg

[@WaywardWaggs]

Thanks for that idea. People keep telling us to use a hair dryer but we don't have a have one. 😂

[@josephsandall1789]

You can heat the linoleum up a bit and place some weight on it and it should flatten it out.

[@WaywardWaggs]

Thank you.

[@Time4Xploring]

Hey Dustin, you did a great job at helping out, and you didn't stab your thumb. LOL. I heard you met a friend of mine. Lance from Boondocking with Boomer there in Florida. I was hanging out with him this past weekend in Monterey California. Aee you doing a major fund raising event this year for Vets? Safe travels!

[@WaywardWaggs]

It was great to meet Boomer in Tampa. We might do one this year. If we do, we will definitely let you know.

[@Time4Xploring]

@@WaywardWaggs Yes, Let me know. I have some money set aside for giving to Veteran organizations

[@MrCatchmy600rr]

It's possible that side is set to low

[@bonniedewilde710]

check out "Finding our Someday" S6 eps 100 , samething happened to them.

[@thetravelingbrowns]

🇺🇲

[@gsolo328]

Too bad manufacturers can't figure this stuff out before it leaves the factory.... Must be they just don't care.

[@WaywardWaggs]

It seems like it got worse with time, so it may have settled a bit after the factory also.
