I just purchased a new Jayco pop-up camper. I would like to install some type privacy curtain around the porti-potty but do not have a clue of how to do it. I am open to all suggestions.

Thanks in advance

If you just want something easy, use an old shower curtain along with the rings around a hula hoop ($1 at dollar stores). Put 3-4 pieces of string around the hoop that will come to a point for hanging. Use some heavy duty velcro strapping to keep it hanging from the ceiling.

Without putting any holes in the ceiling, simply put self-adhesive velcro strips on the ceiling and on a shower curtain.

This makes for a fast set up/take down. It also let's you play with location until you are satisfied. Don't use the industrial strength, as I pictured, if you think you'll want to re-position it.

I use self-adhesive Velcro all over the PUP until I am convinced that whatever it is is going to be permanent. You have to work slowly to roll the Velcro off of the wall or ceiling, as you can pull the finish off if you just pull quickly. Then I'll use some anchor bolts at that point.

My 2008 14RT Starcraft OFF-ROAD POPUP came with a shower curtain for the shower and cassette pottie area. It also has a privacy curtain that runs from the door area to the wall to block off that area of the trailer.

they used these "turn buttons" mounted in the ceiling to hold up the curtain slide rails with hooks.



You can kinda get an idea of the ceiling mounted hardware here in this photo showing both shower curtain and privacy curtain in a POPUP.

I would use a shower curtain with grommets. Then use some 3M command hooks on the ceiling. 3m commmand hooks

Might consider starting with something like these:

Get a full circle ceiling mounted shower curtain rod that is used over a free standing footed bathtub. Lowes, HD, Ace.
