Exactly Matt. And water will always find the lowest place to pool in and stay there and busily munch away at your van floor. For what it costs Its very good value and could save your poor van from an early visit to the scrap yard.

we used to coat the insides of our council vans in a rubber floor paint, but the price of that is the same as Protecta-kote, and Protecta-kote is designed for the job

Even if it saves the ply-line it must be worth £20 ;)

Water is lazy, it always finds the easy route to go till it gets stuck normally your floor and the only way it can go anywhere from there is to eat through the floor, water can be a nasy piece of work lol :o
