Re: Applying decals?

Clean and degrease the area where it's to go, spray the surface with water from the wife's houseplant spray thing, peel the paper off, apply the decal onto the wet surface, the water will help it slide to position, use a plastic body filler spreader or similar to squeegee the water out, peel the tr...

Re: Camping table & chair set - again

We have one of those all-in-one folding tables with the 4 chairs built in. Our is "OK", but the fixtures that hold it all together certainly don't hold up well if it's not planted geometrically perfectly on the ground. We find ourselves ensuring that everything is square before sitting on ...

Re: Steering wheel covers - reccomentations?

OBG - our new camper is an early, so it comes with the brown interior trim. Not my favourite, to be honest. Was considering re-covering the whole lot using using some soft foam as a slightly squidgy backing and either decent vinyl or leather (probably a cream colour) on top. So, steering wheel would...

2 to 4 Berth High-Top Conversion

I've been educating myself on T25's for a couple of years now, by mooching around this forum (though not saying much - apologies for that!) in order that when funds allow I have half a chance of not making an awful purchase.
