    Valeter for campervans

    Hi all A musing I am having since the pandemic has changed working environments for everyone. If your van is converted for camping, would you entrust the cleaning of the vehicle (just the exterior, or the whole thing) to somebody else? Has anybody had experience of asking a valeter to clean...

    Who in their right minds would buy a white van?

    I thought I’d wash the van today - ALL day. Small black spots all over it, interspersed with the odd yellow or brown. So I introduced it to some Farécla G3, then some lighter fluid and finally a revelation - A clay bar ! Never used one before, but the results are amazing. Tailgate, passenger...
