Need ideas? Slide floor - removing carpet

We've had our Montana for over 4 years now and we've absolutely hated the carpet in the kitchen slide (the largest slide in the camper). A couple years ago, I removed the carpet surrounding the slide on the main floor. The refrigerator sits on the carpet in the slide as does the kitchen table (which we have also removed along with all the free standing chairs and replaced with something different).

Meanwhile, the carpet in the actual slide remains. Looking under the carpet I can see the Draco covering so not real sure how to proceed removing that carpet and installing something else (not carpet).

Removing the old carpet will not be a problem. What I'm asking for (advise), is what to replace and how to replace a covering on the floor in the slide (considering it's covered with the Draco.

I'm thinking just remove the carpet, cut out of the Draco, pour vinyl glue on the floor and lay new kitchen floor tiles down. We do not want to go with a wood floor or a laminate, although a free floating surface would mean I would not have to remove the Draco and use glue or stick-on tiles.

Anyway, what's your thoughts for anyone who's done this before. What did you use as the final covering and would you do it different knowing what you know now, after the fact?

Again... the carpet IS coming out. It's just nasty, holds dirt, and water. We've had it covered with a rubber mat for a couple years now. The rubber mat has worked well to keep the dogs from pee-ing directly on the carpet, but it's just time get rid of the carpet and go with something solid.

What your thoughts. What would you do? What have you done?
