No one comes to Norfolk, without a reason why.

Im well pleased. Going light was a bit of an experiment. I did like the dark look and wanted a matt gun metal grey initially...but the mrs wasnt having it, so I chose this super pale mint green
Yes very pleased, Powder coated white wheels next

Did you roller the roof too?
If so did you 'just' sand and roller straight on? I guess you used Rustoleum. Do you know if it will be flexible enough on roof.
So many questions I know, I have a high top Autosleeper and would like to do roof.

Yes you can do roofs. Rustoleum will go on metal, wood and glass fibre. You do need to key the surface though.

Like Covkid said. yes. Rustolum is flexible enough to do the roof. Its a big old job sanding it all back, but when you consider it cost me less than 100 in total, its worth the hours

Google "9dart roller rustoleum" - you'll find the shop page then.
