@smithy,
@ Smithy I have bunker for 43down
and I have appending for 46 across. Maybe I'm wrong on these but they seem to fit.
I can't get 28 down so maybe it's incorrect, not sure.

@WendyLou,
46a AMENDING (appending doesn't fit the clue,or the number of letters)
28d DISTILLED (anagram of DID IT SELL)

Good Luck
