    fully sanded van with 120 grit sand paper , cleaned and ready to go with upol Raptor bed liner stone chip paint.
    These are ready mixed so just add hardener to the bottle .

    Savage paint job mate!! Totally bulletproof, stone chips are no longer an issue. Great idea too. Hides a multitude of sins on the body work.😁😁😁

    I don't know how this got into my feed, but I am glad that it did. I have a Chrysler minivan that I use occasionally as a camper van, but mostly it's a suburban family vehicle. Maybe after the van ages a little more and is exclusivly a camper van, I would consider the Raptor paint job.

    Just found the channel. For those who don't know the LT35 are the most reliable vans ever, nothing better before or since. I've run 3 LWB to over 500k with little more than oil and cambelt changes with the odd vac pump. I still have 2, both just run in at 150k each. Roof not high enough for a camper for me so I'm converting a L4H3 Iveco Daily which I already know won't be anywhere near as trouble free.

    Hi Tommy, great job on the van I've just prepped my own lt35 xlwb and have 12 bottles of tintable and it's going midnight blue/black pearl so hopefully it will come out good as I've never sprayed a van in my life haha how many bottles did you use? although mine is the xlwb model i do have more windows than yours so hopping 12 is enough 🤷‍♂️ cheers, col
