Biggest vehicle and smallest vehicle valeted new pics

Post by W1ggz » Wed Feb 13, 2013 7:45 am

not lude related but i was quite pleased with the work me and my colleague managed to do in a day on this massive 16 seater mini bus.
Its from our local school they havent got funding for new busses as there £30,000 each so asked us to tidy them up got two to do apparently this is the worst. We have done a interior valet and removed stickeres mopped the whole van and touched up the rusty areas, think we could of gone higher on the price. he was going to paintbrush white hammerit on the rusty areas, we offered to kurust treat it and rattle can it instead. first time we have done this on a customer vehicle.

nice work! i'm sure the school are going to love it, and even if the rust comes back with a vengeance then you've at least given their bus a good few more years.
