 SATURDAY 1ST JULY

Today I completely finished insulating the walls and replaced the plastic panels that you can see in the lower sections of these photos. I also fully insulated the wheel arches with 2cm thick Kaiflex. I also painted the floor with two coats of black undercoat - allowing for the necessary drying time in between each coat. In the final photo you can see I have replaced the wooden panelling that came with the van when we bought it. This panelling has been sanded and repainted in white.

I treated the batons with a double-coat of exterior varnish to protect from rot. In between the batons I insulated with 2cm thick Kaiflex and then replaced the flooring that was in the van when we bought it to protect the metalwo...
