I need to replace the vinyl on the ceiling of my 93 Newell. There are wood strips stapled to the ceiling approximately 25" apart. The vinyl is stretched over these strips, then stapled to the ceiling. It appears that I can just staple one side of the perimeter of the vinyl then pull it taut and staple the other side. I'm wondering if there is a method to assure the vinyl will stay taut. Should the vinyl be warmed or steamed prior to stretching? I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this or if there is a way to find out how it was done at the factory?
