What paint should i use to paint my Westy Pop top? I would remove the whole thing and get it done at a boat place with new resin etc but I dont have the time or money or space to keep the bus dry and under cover while the top is off. I was going to do a light sanding with some emery paper and then a quick coat of something white. So what should i use? Hammerite? normal car paint? brush, roller or spray?
I did read in a past Camper and Bus mag that you can use a special gel paint but further than that, some have used rustoleum and rollered it on...
Roll on some Tekaloid. Avenue Coatings will mix to your spec. I did 2 coats with 1 litre but only just. You might as well get more considering the postage. It's good stuff and no primer needed.
After proper prep, paint with 2 pak high build & after sanding smooth with 250 grit paint it with 2 pak L90D That will give you a factory finish.
Also need to do this and don't have anywhere undercover. how long does the two pak take to dry? Can you recomend any particular brand? Will it deal with the usual crazing on the corners? Cheers s
2k d 2 hours dry to touch 40 mins if you use some rocket activator with the usual activator here s mine
Yeah its dry to the touch after about 2 hrs Rocket takes some of the shine out but will speed it up. Don't let it get wet for about 12hrs or it will look like a vinyl roof. Ask me how I know
