    Probably not perfect, but acceptable on the older caravans and definitely something you can have a go at yourself depending on the age of the caravan.

    brilliant video Mark, I'm sure I've seen people twist the staples slightly when putting them in

    I would drill the ends of each one then upto you on what you feel is best. They do a large roof strap tape which may cover the small ones. The staples will normally add a good strength and fiberglass would be an added bonus.

    think a lot of manufacturers use fiat white but a proper scan match would be better

    Manufacturers have records of which paint is used on any given model or year.

    Yes and each one is different, normally take a locker door off and take to a shop that mixes the paint and they will match the colour.

    The caravan is 16 years old so will have faded from the new colour. I bought a white touch up pen (for kitchen doors etc) and tried it on a few chips on my last caravan and it was no where near the same white as the 3 year old caravan Re paint colour ...the plastic comes preformed in white plastic formed in a mould so its not "painted" as the colour is added to plastic then formed into tiny balls then moulded.. good idea taking a locker door to match the colour but some locker doors fade at different rates compared to panel fading especially if not on the same side (so subjected to more/less sunlight) so make sure the locker door is the same faded shade as the panel being repaired Looking forward to seeing the next part of the video to see how good the finished repair looks. BTW plastic staples are often used in the car repair industry eg to repair split/cracked plastic car bumpers... i saw one bumper split virtually in half and rhe replacement was back ordered with no ETA which was repaired using plastic staples with a lifetime guarantee on the repair for as long as the owner owned the car Great vid BTW 👍
