    Nice job! I would of definitely painted the pop top dark brown or tan to color match the van but it looks OK bright white. I have those lift assist struts on my van definitely worth the money.

    Great video, just needs some white racing strips to tie in the white top. We need to go "Camping".

    How much interlux do you think this takes? A gallon? 2 quarts?

    Do you have a video of how you made the structure of the can on the roof of the car? How did you fix? I'm from Brazil and I want to do it in my Ford Explorer

    Hell yeah bro, thanks for making this video. I feel more confident in restoring my top. I have never done anything to mine since I got the bus over 15 years ago. The canvas is toasted and the fiberglass top has mold and the fiberglass is worn out. You can see the fibers. Why did you choose that paint? Is it okay not to use a primer? Is it okay for fiberglass?

    Nice!!!! I’m going to try too! Is there any reason why I wouldn’t be able to paint the underside?

    • @flossymissiles
      @flossymissiles  3 года назад +1

      You can paint it for sure just give it a little sand

    • @nmartin5551

      Depends what kind of condition the flocking is in. If there is decent flocking, Tilex or its generic equivalent, dabbing with paper towels (if its still mounted on the van - protect your eyes, the interior and lungs), or hose it off if it is off, and the flocking will actually hang in there. But if you want to paint it, just knock it off and paint away!!

    • @DanTheManIOM

      I was told the flocking was to help with condensation when hot breathe contacts cold roof. IDK. I saw another video where they installed generic car headliner foam...it looked pretty good.

    Another sweet looking job. So what's next for this Westie?

    • @flossymissiles
      @flossymissiles  3 года назад

      Probably some spring pads in the rear and a power inverter

    Can you paint the top without removing it from the the van?

  • @nmartin5551
    @nmartin5551 Год назад +1

    I added that GoWesty boost supports. I am really glad I did it. So much easier to get the top up. Somehow it has gotten heavier over time…. 😮

    Bus Depot told me to put the seam for the skylight seal between the hinges (14:06). Yea, in the middle of this and since I have almost a gallon of artic white around, I am using that instead of interlux. I like the interlux, but the 100 dollars, I will spend on H4 headlight upgrade.
