How long did that take ?

Probably 3 - 4 hours, but i'm still not convince I got everywhere. As soon as you start, you find more and more areas to spray.

I used 4l of the evil stuff, much of which ened up on me as I was laying under the van doing it.

I jet washed mine a few days ago ready for todays joy. Not sure what is worse jet washing under the van while laying under it, or waxoyling it while laying under it.

Mind you I did then have to get the jet wash out again to jet wash the drive off after i'd finished today, and while at it I jet washed the underside of the splinter, as thats next on the list for some under body painting and waxoyling

Got home after a run to get a call from my mate Gary, eh ,you need to check your motor, there's oil rainbows everywhere out side his house! :?

Looked at what I'd done thinking no way I've pierced the tank, but there's a fair bit of diesel dripping of the tank :(

Turns out when removing the existing floor( which I did NOT fit) one of the screws has pierced it! Been like that for 9years :lol:
