ROAD TO DARWIN
(Preview)

paint insulation for van
(Preview)
Hi All,
Has anyone heard or used this new type of paint for caravans.
It is claims your van will be 50% warmer or cooler if you paint it on the outside of your van.
Also curious on the cost if anyone knows.
Apparently there has been an ad in the CMCA Wanderer for this product.
Thanks
