    Another great video Phil. Agree with you, never tow with a full flush tank. When we leave site, we always drain the flush tank in to a spray bottle, then next time we are away and need to stop on route, we can use the spray bottle instead. ATB Mark

      Hi Mark. A spray bottle is a better idea than a old water bottle that I use. Thanks Phil👍🙂

    Hi Phil more great video’s
    When I had my Stirling serviced they said I had small amounts of damp ether side of toilet,
    He asked if I traveled with water in tank ,
    I said yes, he said that’s what’s causing it

      Hi Bill. Yes the cistern is not fully enclosed and can spill over the top and soak the inside of the bathroom.. Glad it is all sorted now. Many Thanks Phil👍🙂

    Hi Phil, Gail is urging me to get the T-Cut out and get cracking ! As always some great tips Phil 👍. You’re right about not traveling with 17kg of water in the flush tank, but I do travel home with approx 4 to 5 litre of cleaning solution in the cassette. This is balanced out with a lighter wardrobe (dirty laundry goes in the car) and less food in the fridge. All the best to you both, Rob & Gail 😀

    Hi Phil 👋 great video, and thanks for shout out. Not used our sealant yet, but by the looks of it does a great job. Away at the moment and loving the caravan again 😂 cheers Paul and Sarah.

    Hi Phil in a previous life I made Perspex display cases for exhibitions and museums. Guess what was in my armoury for removing scratches? Yes right first time T-Cut. Good vlog 😁👍

    • @lostweekendscaravan
      @lostweekendscaravan  Před 29 dny

      Hi Colin. T-Cut can be used for so many things. Sometimes it even removes black streaks. Thanks Phil🙂👍

      Hi Mike. The windows in Caravans are so soft and scratch easily. Thanks Phil. 🙂👍

    You’re right about putting clingfilm on the end, but you don’t need an extra cap as just screw the original end on and then you can clean it when it’s gone hard and reuse it. It comes out as a hole if you poke it with a screwdriver .

    • @lostweekendscaravan
      @lostweekendscaravan  Před 29 dny

      Hi Mike. many thanks for the tip. I will try this next time. Cheers Phil🙂👍

    I'd be very interested in how to remove a deep scratch from a caravan window, I caught mine last week 😢

    • @lostweekendscaravan
      @lostweekendscaravan  Před 28 dny

      Hello. If I can get hold of an old window I'll make a video on it. Thanks Phil👍🙂

    @joegilbey4624 Před 29 dny +1

    Thanks Phil a brilliant video, I’ve bought all from your links and also a T-Cut Scratch remover…. Do you use an awning rail protector by any chance ?? Do you see any value in them?

    • @lostweekendscaravan
      @lostweekendscaravan  Před 29 dny +1
