Problem sorted..... NEVER FIT A ROOF IN WINTER!

 

vinyl had shrunk in the cold so had to pour hot water over it to make it expand.

When i had the new roof fitted the guy had to 'Winch' it shut with straps for that very reason. Then i had to keep it closed for a week until the adhesive set. he said in summer it's a lot easier as the vinyl stretches............also said WHITE vinyl is a Biatch compared to Black
