Ta.but whilst the depth and method of repair maybe err thorough

the painting and rest of it is run of the mill that any paintshop can and does do, its nothing special, its not 5 star or show prep,just a std coat or 6 of paint
what always matters most is whats under it all , Id be happy to leave you to do that side of it be it roller or spray it yourself

The thought has just shamefully occured to me that you've probably done about 5 complete restos in the same time I've half-done one!

Whats the puropse of the seal on the side window?
Is it to beef up the thickness so that a normal panel-van seal works?

Getting good you are

yes in a word, the bit I add fits the frame snugly and then it all fits in the same seal as I supply for the rest of the panal windows..
