diy pole holder
« on: April 13, 2009, 10:00:45 am »
Hi all

Im in the process of making a pole holder that sits on top of your roof bars out of some soil pipe and end caps.

My question is -

can i spray it or paint it to match the colour of my van ?

Do i need to prime it to make the paint stick ?

you can buy BLACK soil pipe and fittings, they look better than the grey
