Thanks!
I would bet that if you wrote the show and asked them you might actually get the answer. Address it to the guy that is the host, Kevin Tetz.

Betcha!

I must have missed out somewhere, but what throne do you have that you are searching for a bowl for?

I saw that you were looking for one, but not which model it was.

Hi, and thanks for trying to help! It is a sealand, I believe "low profile" with the sprayer.

The pics here do not really show the flaws I see... LOL... but maybe you can determine the model from those pics?

THANKS for ANY help!!

Oh -- and it has 4 screw setup on the base if that helps. It used to have a neat sticker on the upper left side -- that said Sealand - Lift to add water and push to flush... if you have any idea where I could get that sticker as well -- that would be REALLY cool"!

Thxs.

I think I might just make do with what I now have... unless you know of a source perhaps? New bed is in...
BTW.. anyone know how I can make the alluminum that is inside the entrance door -- which used to be covered in Zolatone -- look like the inside of new airstreams? i.e. polished? or sanded somehow?

THANKS!

Sorry, can't help with the throne. Looks like a SeaLand alright. I might have been able to help with one of the old Thetfords.

Thanks! Its a super long job...longer than I expected!!!

Painting should start this weekend, and then the new and painted cabinet doors etc... should arrive next week -- also, I will be replacing the mouse carpet with some cool stuff

Also, I am hoping to see the unseen *material that is* -- new captains chairs -- so that we can wrap up the cockpit!

Well, in the absence of another tip, why not try a solution of TSP in an inconspicuous place?

It's strong, but fairly benign.
