Going to be hand rollering my 90 in the next few weeks.
I'd set on NATO green satin but it's everywhere these days.

I do like the deep bronze green (bit more traditional) but wondering how it looks rollered? Surely won't be as glossy as the pics I can find on Google.

Before I buy anything what colours you guys recommend?

Pics be great chaps!

Thanks

Aintree Green.
Rolls Royce's used to be hand rolled, I'm not sure if they still are.

Looks nice mate!

Massai Red is the winner for me. Both of mine are that colour.

You can get a very good finish with a roller, I used gloss foam rollers for both of mine and as can bee seen was initially very shiny and even two years later with no care and only rain water washing it still isn't too bad in terms of shine. I'm sure if I had kept it clean tidy and polished it would still be shiny but that is not the point of a land rover!

he has a cheek painting a land rover like that! famous designer or not it looks like its made up from stolen panels of all different colours. I would go for a very dark green with silver Hammerite body cappings.

Havent decided yet but toss up between grey or green

I am going for Bronze green for mine. It is supposed to be fine with a roller.

'Famous designer'?

Who DFNL is he?
Obviously someone with a few tins of Dulux Sample Pots lying around!

At least our Bitza's were made up of whatever straight body parts were left over after the Trials and Comp-Safaris!
