Rollering van Tomorrow "UPDATE"

Well the day has come to paint the Van...The forecast is dry/cloudy, and I have a 2 1/2 hour window to paint the van. Why only 2 1/2 hours, well that's the time I have between dropping the kids of at school/nursery and picking them up. Thankfully it's only the bottom half I'm painting tomorrow, the top will be later. I even drafted in Erin to help with the final sanding today...

Any last minute advice as this is the first time at rollering a van..

It will take you up to fourty minutes to mix the paint, so factor that in. Drape some paper over the wheels as it's hell to get off the tyres!
Above all, ENJOY YOURSELF!
Good luck!
