What this video covers

Refinishing interior trim and installing a shower tray requires extensive surface preparation, including filling gaps with resin and sanding with 120-grit paper.3:05 To sand tight interior angles, a custom sanding block made from a flat wooden strip and double-sided tape allows for precise material removal.5:30 After sanding, three coats of paint are applied to the trim—the first by brush to penetrate the wood, followed by two roller coats for a smooth finish.8:00

The project also includes testing the shower tray drainage system by pouring 10 liters of water into the pump reservoir to ensure proper gravity flow toward the bilge.10:17 To prevent water ingress, a foam gasket is applied to three sides of the tray, which remains removable for maintenance.15:57 The bathroom door, which opens inward, is reinstalled, and the finished trim pieces are fitted into place.18:35 Final installation involves securing the trim with brass screws.23:38 The project confirms that proper drainage slope and removable components simplify long-term maintenance in confined boat spaces.
