Ok, the celebrations for the Battle of Britain are happening at the end of this week and we undertook one of our more unusual jobs..!

It was a great little job !

Anyone else have pictures of unusual items (or famous) they would like to show

Keeping the theme.

Interesting back story to his plane, it had an engine blow out and decommissioned. It’s now been converted into a beauty salon.

We managed with the steps..... just.

Could have done with a spider like yours really.
It was a nice change of pace for the day.

Hi Darran

Did you just use WFP on the plane or did you pre spray first ? if so what did you use if you dont mind me asking,
We have been asked to quote and clean two planes one a 150 ft replica and the other full size passenger plane.
