I can barely understand what that means

An odd full stop or comma please

Oh and welcome by the way

I gave up on 'Kiss'

I think he (she?) meant "kids".

Glad it's not just me!

Isn't the Rustoleum thread about the most read ever on here, with about a quarter of a MILLION views and 167 pages? Surely there must be more information in there about roller painting than anyone would need. And it's pinned to the top of the section, to save searching for it.

Pointed them in that direction last night, 3 posts in quick succession, suggested an introduction with van and engine type etc. but no reply, perhaps he/she was sleeping it off

To be fair. Theres loads of info on the Rustoleum thread so much so that I started getting confused and making notes as I went through from page to page. Theres just so much info.....

Thankfully after a little gentle ribbing you lot pointed me in the right direction. Ive got the video. Ive ordered and got my paint(pretty chuffe at how close it looks like the original), and Im hoping to start rubbing, rust treating and filing the minor spots that are left after all th welding work Ive had done by someone else. Then I practise on my "pooh" door Ive got to replace.If that goes wel I take the bit by the teeth and go go go.

Im stil scared stiff as Ive never done anything like this before. If anyone wants to come n give me a hand you are more than welcome and Il cook you up a nice roast with loads of beer lol


So Christine my advice is get the video that precis's and explains so much better.
