  2. Erm...We all know how difficult it is to find the right spot .......... Years ago there was Morrison's close to me which had a lovely corrugated grey wall (shaded) aswell. Light Dove grey is my favorite, my warehouse is white inside (painted breeze blocks) and at home I have a lovely laurel hedge, however its dependent of the right light....... I'm thinking of painting an area in my unit grey and getting some glossy floor covering to make really look good and stand out, do you think it will be money well spent ??

I know I've I'm the first to use GABANO........ Sorry profusely

But not if its a shit pit car like "project Bravo"
