Waterproofing, Anti Mould and Sealing.

This weekend FINALLY give us the time to get some more work done of the van. The past few weeks have seen wet weekends and a  long weekend away, consequently  we just have not had any time to get into the van :(

Over the last couple of weeks our friend has totally redone the running gear. We now have nice new brakes, so when we go....we will be able to stop. This IS kind of important :)

We had thought that we wanted to seal the any raw wood in the van with  cheap paint with some antimould additive in it.  The idea was to prevent any mold growing under the flooring etc.  A trip to Bunnings found a good product.  "Aqua Block" Waterproofing paint.

This is a primer, sealer, binder, undercoat that will waterproof and seal as well as being anti mould and mildew. PERFECT!!!!

We have given the raw areas a fairly thick coat, and we will coat the back of the wall board we will put over the top.

The resulting pictures are pretty boring.. but the van does look brighter and fresh with come white paint around.  We have decided that the rear lounge is in OK enough condtion to stay for the time being. The white paint also highlights any holes that we will fill well with "no more gaps" before the top sheet goes on.

Next job is lights and wiring before we re-sheet.
