Niiiiiiiiiiiice. Both before and after were great.

I don't suppose you could do a writeup on the steps you used to do the respray? Nothing massive. I just want to know stuff like how much stripping back you did, preparation / priming and how you did the two tone so neatly!

I'm getting a compressor and spraygun in the very near future and was planning on doing a two tone respray. It'd be of the 'cheerful' variety mind you because I doubt my van will ever be a looker without having nearly everything replaced.




If at first you don't succeed. Build, build again.
