It really is cracking on now mate, each day its looking better and better!!
I suppose start small and do it at home and once the work starts picking up a small unit will be peanuts!
Why not see if you can rent a corner
Find a small company or a one man band who'd be happy with a few quid a week to help out with the rent
I know you've already stated previously, but what's the brand/type of paint your using Aaron?
It looks a really good finish, nice and shiny
Tell them to f**k off.... They can't stop you doing anything mate, as long as your not doing it at an unsociable time they haven't got a leg to stand on... If i get any **** about mine i tell them where to go..
How many litres do you need to do the entire vehicle? Reading your threads giving me the confidence to attempt mine
keep going until your told not to by some1 who has the power. Then just say you didnt know you was doing wrong... Until then crack on
On another note do you have any rock/tree sliders for sale or a light bar at all? Pm me if you do please mate. Think thats my next purchase
Go for it, Take your time and you'll do good.
It really isn't as hard as it looks and it's a landrover so you don't need perfect
How much paint. Well that depends.
Are you painting it all the same colour. Or roof/bonnet different colour.
What colour as some cover better than others.
I've bought 5l and I recon I'll only use 3-1/2 at the very most.
Yeah I will do one way or the other. Believe me without something to focus on I'd be an even more miserable ####. Doing this is all good for me.
Think I've got a light bar to be fair. Will have a look tomorrow mate.
Thinking of just repainting it green as po did a crap job on it. Is that 5 litres paint or 3.5 litre paint &1.5 litre hardener?
I bought your light bar, unless you had several?
Doing a grand job on the 90 it's looking immense having seen it in the flesh before you started the thread
I'm going to follow your lead and use rustoleum on the axles, radius arms, panhard etc I want to finish them in red to match the top of the Landy. Can you spray directly on top of the black rustoleum? Is that what you did?
Haven't done a lot of painting and so have a little to learn. I though etch primer was for ali? Did you use it because you already had it?
My thinking is that if rustoleum is good at holding the rust back and giving a nice finish on the axles, I could use the remainder from the tin to to the radius arms etc then paint the red on top. Wondering if I could paint directly on to the dry rustoleum or would need to flatten it slightly and if flattening it would knacker the protection of the rustoleum, it would have red cellulose over the top tho.
Cheers, mate. That's the sort of clear advice I need when it comes to paint. Hadn't thought of the volatile stuff in there. I'll probably go for a good primer as you have. I am hoping to get the red as close to the rioja red, which is the original shade of red as the vehicle, doubt rustoleum do that
