I`ve only ever used Sikaflex 512 and try to leave it a good 48 hours before moving, ideally fit friday and don`t move until monday at the earliest :hammer: I also loosely cover overnight especially if a heavy dew is forecast for the first couple of days :scared:

I`ll second that :wave: particularly the last sentence :scared: :lol-049: :lol-049:

Ask your doctor to review your medication :scared:

Change oil and filters regular and it will be fine, they are built to handle that and more. As has already been said my concern would be the bodywork / chassis.

I used to have a coloured van but i lost it :rolleyes2: never did find it :sad:

Thanks to everyone for making me get my arse in gear and fit the Fiamma awning brackets that i`ve had for over 8 years :rolleyes2: All fitted :hammer: ( only took 15 minutes ... LOL ) and looking good, now be able to use the awning without the feet touching the floor :dance: :wave:

We are not as daft as we look :dance:
