I just bought a 7 x 24 NEO enclosed trailer and I want to finish the inside. I bought some white hardboard last nite at Home Depot ($12 a sheet), along with the trim strips to cover the seams. My buddy bought the same trailer used the same stuff to finish his, when he did it it was 20° outside and he had just bought the board from HD and installed it while it was basically at room temp. Once it was installed and sat for a nite, the board shrank and wrinkled. I bought the board last nite and put it in the trailer so everything will be the same temp when I start working on it. Will it still wrinkle on me? Is there any other stuff that would be better to use and still not to expensive? This stuff is pretty dense (used in showers the HD guy told me) so it shouldn't soak up moisture. I'm just worried how it will hold up to temp changes (shrink/expand).
Also, I'm going to attach with #8 self drilling screws with white snap caps. Is there a caulk/glue I should run down the vertical supports to help with board attachment?
