    Camper van conversion, roof insulation

    Hi, I'm just starting a campervan conversion, and thinking about sticking insulation foamboard to the roof. It occurred to me that the roof may get very hot in a summer like the last one, so what adhesive is suitable? C.

    VW Crafter Adblue

    Hi D and M, That's good, that it is approx 8000miles before I need to top it up. I've just bought it, and it was a worry, so when I bought Diesel. I chose the best which was £225/ltr, gulp! Cheers, C.

    Storing powder, like cement, plaster etc for those small jobs tip.
