Ok im in thinking mode again Ive noticed of late that there are a few people who want there bus paint to be a bit nicer There not after show winning body and paint work more just for there bus to look respectable and tidy A full proper respray is an expensive option for most I was wondering if people would be interested in a roller paintjob using good quality coach enamel?
Ill take the advice from tlbs resident pharmacist Im a little jiggled by malcs reply tbh im pretty sure my hand painting doesent look Marmitee
Yeah , but you on't be able to get it in front of your fire , Anyway - why aren't you out burning a straw scarecrow and dancing naked around a fire ,its the last minutes of winter don't ya know
I dont need to get a whole bus in front of my fire air drying is fine im just speeding things up I do know and i was supposed to be in the lakes but normal life had different plans Im heading up the moors tmw and will cook a dinner and give thanks in my own way
Tractor paint looks good on your detailing but have never seen it look good on a whole car tbh - people used to use it in the 70s on cars and vans
Well when i do a whole vehicle ill post the pics to show you how good it can be Ive seen painters make the most smoothest paint finish on skirting boards using gloss and ive seen a lot more skirting boards with runs and brush strokes on them Its not the product its the care and attention of the person applying it
I've seen roller paint finishes and they look quite awful. A home respray and some elbow grease gets a far better finish.
Fair enough from what you and malc have seen before I suppose the proof is in the finish then and ive a lot of preset worry to overcome I do belive that for a thousand pound i can give a better finish than a backstreet bodyshop using 2k paint at the same price
My dad is a old school painter and decorator of fifty years and has hand painted all of his vans , they look great but there is something missing when you study them - never new what , but defo something
I'm not a painter by any means but surely if theres enough to flat n polish up you can get a good finish using anything?
Rolls Royce hand painted all their vehicles until the 50s , paint flat , paint flat , paint flat , paint - cut , paint cut , paint cut .
