I know, I know...

I know, I know... I promissed to post just a week later and not a month (or two). I am soooo sorry, but we were in Danmark for a two week holiday and I just forgot to post in the last weeks.
So here is what happend and what we got done:
We got some samples of rhoba polishes, thats the german producer and distributor for rolite polishes and we tried them out on the battery compartment door.

I would say it looks great, but not WOW or Yieppeeyeah like... So maybe we have to use an other paint stripper and polish it in more steps. We´ll try it out on the refrigarator door.
We started to take out the old and rotten floor, which is a quarter done, but we need to get this to an end on this weekend, as we have to paint the whole frame before we can install the new axles. We are running out of time for that paintjob, as the paint can only be painted at 15-25 Celsius and the winter is coming quick down here. Hopefully we get this done to the end of next week, as we are then heading to .........(sorry I can´t tell you now, as this is a birthday present for Steffi and she has no clue!!). I am going to pick up the new floor that I bought on ebay on saturday or sunday. Ebay is such a great source for buying parts. We bought the new fridge on ebay and saved about 490,- euro and it was really new and was just installed in a caravan before but was never used. The new floor is about 180,- euro cheaper than the floor we could buy in Stendal, and it is the same material...
We´ll work on the new floorplan over the weekend as well, as it get dark quite early now and we have no light in the hangar, at the moment we are thinking of adding a greywatertank right behind the axles and probably the new kitchen will be over the wheelwell. We´ll post a copy of the plan as soon as its done.
