Preparation Complete

 
The grubby floor after lifting the plywood, it needs to be spotless ready for the insulation and new plywood floor.

 
First job washing the floor with hot soapy water, and drying off with another clean cloth as I moved along, the floor is now dry and ready for the next step.


Some small rust holes where the screws have pulled out when lifting the plywood and a few minor places along the wheel cover joint, a wire brush and some wire wool got rid of the rust.


After the wire brush another clean out so that the areas that need it can get a couple of coats of Hammerite.


The side door sill had taken a bit of a battering but looks like new after de-rusting and painting, all the screw holes along with any bare metal had a couple of coats of paint.

 
The seal from the bottom of the bulkhead had to be scraped off and again a couple of coats of paint.

 
All done and ready for the floor insulation and new plywood floor, the only problem the insulation has not arrived and it is Friday afternoon, so not much chance of it arriving before Monday now.
