just an ol van..

Post by John »

After reading "L" s update on Gunther, I went to the garage (igloo) kicked the bottom of door a couple a times to break the seal from the ground I finely got the door to open. This is what I found. Ice. And sad seen. I had removed the cabinets last fall to R@R the nasty as# flooring (before K I) well other things came about. So here it is waiting for repairs, A little time a couple dollars it should be ready for some camping. :mrgreen: Here s a couple of pics to get things rolling. "L" really thank you for the MOTOVATION! If had not posted your project the igloo door would still be frozen closed.

Vinyl paint,dye works very well. Just like any other applied coating PREP is the important part.

My 70 bus has a brown middle seat. I used Krylon plastic paint after cleaning it up really well to make it black like the other seats. So far it has held up well, though a few scuffs have appeared from boxes on it etc. The only difference people notice is that it's a bit shiny compared to the other seats.
