Title: sold a van with protekta kote?
Post by: g.brookes on July 05, 2013, 04:54:12 pm
Hi chaps.  i currently have a layer of protekta kote on my van and am coming to sell it.  Has anyone done this?  Is it something that can depreciate the value or increase it?  Not sure whether to put the ply back over and hope they dont check, or tell them about it as a positive? 
Also, anyone know how to remove it?

Just worried a non window cleaner will be thinking about rust or damage, or just that its unsightly.  Just wondering if anyone has experienced this to make sure i dont get ripped off when selling the van

Sold 3 vans with it on. Never had an issue. I invite folks to look under van. Bottoms have always been in excellent condition. Doesn't add value I don't think, but doesn't knock it down either. What is it? I'm looking for a new van.  :)
