This weekend I refinished the fridge to match the microwave better. Used stainless steel vinyl. Removed the side trim on the fridge, slid out the cover and applied the vinyl to the opposite side. This was I can still revert the cover and get the black side again should I or future owner prefer to. Amazon of course....http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BAUPS9M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Sprayed water with soap solution on both surfaces, then used a plastic squeegee to remove air bubbles. Let it dry a bit, then I slid the cover back on the fridge and put the trim back on the edge. Took about 20-30 minutes altogether. freezingalaskan  ------------- Volvo XC90 '13 rPod 179 '16 |

Yes, the photo does not reflect how good this looks. You can even see the "grain" of the stainless steel in the vinyl. Amazing stuff. The problem is I bought 12 feet of this stuff and now I am thinking of wrapping the whole R-POD with this stuff and call it the AirPod (as in Airstream)......just kidding.....maybe.
