What laminate is this?

I have a 2013 flying cloud 28 foot rear queen model. My wife and I are doing some renovation on the front area where the booth dinette was as well as where the L-shaped lounge used to be.

We've hired a professional cabinetmaker to do some pretty awesome things but we are in need of one piece of information. The countertop that is where the sink is located, Does any one know the exact laminate brand etc. that it is? It is a white gloss laminate with a textured design. Also if you happen to know the brand etc. of the edging material used around the edge that would also be helpful.

Any help would be very much appreciated:-) Jeff

Don't know if this will help but the wood grain laminate in my 2014 28 is made by Wilsonart. Perhaps you could look at their samples and narrow it down.

Call airstream. They will be glad to help, and they can give you the Wilsonart part number.

Go to the Airstream website. Everything is listed for each year and floor plan.

They gave me the part number but unfortunately they would not give me any more details on this laminate or the edging material and I get the distinct feeling that they’d rather not mess with me at all.

I’ve been to their website and for some reason I come up empty-handed every time when it comes to finding this kind of stuff out if someone could possibly give me a step-by-step instruction of how to find the information I need that would be great.

Update, I am still at this point needing the exact brand etc. of the countertop laminate used. This is frustrating.

I am a commercial interior designer but I am not familiar with all the modern Airstream models/finish packages. However, here are a couple of thoughts...

1. Your "professional cabinetmaker" should be able to help you ID the laminate & trim...if not, I would question their suitability for the project. They may be pros at wood, but not laminate casework - they are two different animals. Wilsonart is one of the most common plastic laminate brands out there and based on that and other's comments before me, I'm pretty sure they are who Airstream uses.

2. Here is a link to the Wilsonart website showing all their current plastic laminates, maybe you can recognize yours. If not, post a picture & I'll see if I recognize it as another brand. (look under "High Pressure Laminates" you can filter options by "color" or "pattern" to help narrow it down)

3. Once you've narrowed it down - take a visit to your local Home Depot/Lowes - they have physical samples that you can see to confirm the match - if your cabinetmaker doesn't have a chain set.

4. From looking at Airstream's website, I'm guessing that the edge trim is a standard PVC "T-molding". Again, your cabinetmaker should be able to provide samples to choose from so you can match up to what you have.

5. What's the "part number" that they gave you when you called? It may give a clue that we can go on...

Not seeing your trailer, it's pretty tough knowing what you are trying to match.

Good luck, hope this helps!

Shari

First off thanks for the comeback. I did some more research and airstream finally did call me back this morning and it turns out that the countertop laminate as well as the tabletop laminate is a Wilsonart Luna Frost 1849K-35
(airstream part number 802129)

The edging I simply ordered from airstream and it should take roughly 3 weeks before I see it.
