That's what I was thinking - what the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.

I'm currently washing my shuttle.
I say 'washing' more rinsing.
I say 'I', more the rain is.....

It needed a wash after being used as a tip transporter this week. Both the garage and attic have been sorted in preparation for an upcoming house move. Mrs RosscoPCole's T-Cross also had a clean.
I am sitting here looking at your van wondering how and why it looks better than my van (which is also a black Kombi with front splitter, side bars, wind deflectors, rear spoiler and roof bars).........
As nice as folding mirrors are, I'm not sure that is why, nor do I think the mudflaps are doing it - I reckon it has got to be the larger/blacker wheels
Last pick with the winters on before the summers go on.
Shiny Saturday…There’s a Deep Black Van somewhere
And also, a decent sized bird must of had the remnants of someone’s Vindaloo for its tea because no matter what I do, I can’t seem to shift this mark it’s left behind!! Any ideas anybody??

If bird poop has lightly ate into the paint work you can use a hot air gun over it. It needs to get hot for the paint to self heal, but don't hold it in one place. We do it with alot of sales cars apart from new vauxhalls and Peugeots as there paint is that bad just falls off if a bird poops on it (literally).
Brilliant thanks mate! I’ll give that a go in the week. Never had that happen before and couldn’t believe it when I was cleaning it earlier & it wouldn’t budge in any way whatsoever
Don't go mad and work up to it heat wise as its abit scary and definitely don't use a blow torch like my neighbour did because he didn't have a heat gun 
Yeah I won’t be doing anything like that!!Don't go mad and work up to it heat wise as its abit scary and definitely don't use a blow torch like my neighbour did because he didn't have a heat gun
So do I heat it up a bit & then give the residual poo a wipe off or is that just as horrendous an idea?? Visions of taking the paint with it in one big smear
I like those wheels ( I take it they're Amarok 18s) The flush windows too.I am sitting here looking at your van wondering how and why it looks better than my van (which is also a black Kombi with front splitter, side bars, wind deflectors, rear spoiler and roof bars).........

No just heat up an area about 5inch either side so it's a big area in a circular motion. You will start to see it disappear at that point just let it cool by its self.
Awesome info thanks mate
Definitely mate. Thanks again. I can get hold of a heat gun from work so will sort that in the week using this exact method. Top man!
They’re Amarok 19” Cantera
Personally I love the look of the black van with the silver wheels. Admittedly I think that for a more punchy look, 15mm spacers on the rears would be good, but that is just my opinion.I am sitting here looking at your van wondering how and why it looks better than my van (which is also a black Kombi with front splitter, side bars, wind deflectors, rear spoiler and roof bars).........
