Sponges and scrapers

Written by Cheryl

Once the floor was up, this was our next conversation.

Bruce: “I’m going to paint the bottom of the bus today with some Rustoleum. Then I can start getting the floor in.”

Cheryl: “Wait. What? We haven’t cleaned it all yet.”

Bruce: “We don’t need to clean it. We’re putting stuff on top of it.”

Cheryl: “No way am I putting new stuff on top of cruddy old stuff. We need to clean!”

We filled our buckets with Dawn, grabbed sponges and scrapers, and got to work. We wiped everything we could, being careful of the wires still in place, and used the scrapers on the window ledges. It still isn’t pristine, but it’s close enough.

Now,  the bus has a good coat of Rustoleum on the bottom.

I think the plan is to lay a thin sheet of plywood, then the wood planks on top of that, but construction is not my department so I may be wrong.

I’m ready to start designing!
