Enjoy it then, but don't laugh at my van when you see it! Can't wait to see the 'facelift' on the van. You both deserve it!

So you use Roberlo for filler - is that a new thing or your regular?
I have a tub of that in the shop as well, recommended by my paint supplier but haven't had a chance to use it much - not being as prolific (or quick) as some

The Roberlo is ok ,depends on what you use it for,its also about personal preference,as well as cost if you use loads of it, 3lt tin will do at least 3 vans cos i always seem to mix too much and then look for some place to put it

gaps in door frames in the workshop is usual place..
when you first get a tin and open it you will find its very sortt of runny but after a the surfave is used and air has got to the stuff it sort of stiffens up ,i cant speak for its slump quality as i dont do much depth. i,it hardens quite well and is average to rub down , not as dense as say p38 ,. I also like bodyline , but again its a personal thing and they are each suitable for use .
the multextender i like as it will feather out very well but i use that more for final detail as say over the lead on the screen pillar etc,
oh and price , err i think the big tins of robbo as i call it work out at about £18 inc

Ordered, 2-3 days tops. What do you think of the bumpers? Will they scrub up or ready for replacing?
