  • A little video showing a few more upgrades and a full van clean (yes I probably did something wrong, like using the wrong cloth or cleaning it in the sunshine or not waiting until the moon was waining haha)
    And yes, I need glasses haha.... I cant read anything close up :)

    Good product for plastics is aerospace 303. Great for bringing up the cab, bumpers etc. protects them from uv rays. Meguires tyre gel is also great for your tyres, put on with a micro fibre sponge. Do a wee bit of detailing and I’ve found these to be great.
    Bucket with grit guard plus a micro fibre wash kit will also prevent scratches.
    Anyway shut up Jason. 😂

    Colin invest in a snow foam lance and use something like Autoglym Polar Blast to wash off your dirt without using a sponge which can cause scratches and swirls. Apply to a dry, wait about 10 minutes then jetwash off and finally microfibre clothes to dry off. Ideally don't do it in the sun either. Great video again

    love that forever black stuff, made my 15 year old disco look brand new. lasted about a year before it started to go patchy, but one coat and it’s back to new again.

    You would have hated pantone sheets then. In my job(photo industry) We used to lay them on white background . They are see through and really easy to tear and once you put them down, they are almost impossible to lift without tearing something. It always looks so neat and clean in your home and in the van.

That under sink cupboard fettling was inspired though.... I shall go forth and fettle some whittling wood and make some shelves for mine. BTW.... the roaming Radfords are now using your catch phrases-as am I. great video. see you on next week's

Diplomacy and the need not to upset these geniuses at the DVLA preclude me from reviewing their amazing change over criteria..... Maye you made a vid about it but i can't find it...? Take care.

    Hi Colin, sorry to be a kill joy but is that round white plastic thing not a gas vent in the bottom of the cupboard under the sink? Isn’t that supposed to be under the gas canister for safety reasons? I only ask coz I am just at the point of converting a very similar van and scratching my head about fitting such a vent. Totally love your videos buddy by the way 😊

    • @Yorkshirepoptopadventures
      @Yorkshirepoptopadventures  2 года назад +1

      Yep you're 100% correct matey, I have another in the other cupboard as that's where the gas used to be when I first built the van... A good point well made though.. ;)

    The only observation I would make - (and just saying) - the gas air vent is now in the cupboard that doesn't hold the gas cylinder.🤔 Not sure if that is a clever idea or not.
