THIS WEEK WE PAINTED THE VAN
One van. A lot of preparation and considerably more paint than we expected.
COST
£700
TIME
3 DAYS
A FRESH START
This week was all about paint. After months of building, cutting, drilling and changing our minds, it was finally time to give the van a proper freshen-up.We thought painting would be one of the straightforward jobs. A bit of preparation, a few coats of paint and job done. As usual, the van had other ideas.
