How did you match the exact colour or did you just use white gloss?

[@jamesdavid7714]

superb job that, need a patch doin on mine How did you get the paint coded, i see a guy come with some sort of machine? I would have a go at mine its just a few localised chips but don't know how to match the white up

[@vanoholic416]

Most paint supplies have one just remember to give the area a good clean to match the paint caravans do have codes in paper work somewhere this was ral9001

[@travelingwillobees9813]

Spot on 👌 what type of paint did you use? Did you use any clear coat on top?

[@vanoholic416]

What are you using to fill?

[@vanoholic416]

Just normal autonomy repair filler Fiberglass 1st skim for strength then a deep fill filler to get shape then a smooth finishing filler for pinholes and imperfections

[@FlauntFilming]

Proper taught me a lesson here, im working on a RV roof myself and now I know how not to do it, as I was gonna put that stuff on but knew nothing about the polystyrene issue....!! Phew glad I looked, now im gonna get a fibreglass rolls and a paint thingy now :) haha, Cheers, your the Man

This is why I paint lol 😅 not up on caravans

[@robertovers1863]

the skin is not fibre glass

[@vanoholic416]

Smelled like it lol some sort of gell coat flow coat.. ??

[@robertovers1863]

@@vanoholic416 no idea, I own one and when I bought it I watched the baileys video on how they make them, it’s foam with sheets of plastic bonded on with glue and compression in huge sheets the whole side is one sheet

[@vanoholic416]

@@robertovers1863 must be different this one it definitely was not plastic as it turns to dust and smells like GRP plastics normally melt

[@leebenblue]

Mines a Bailey Pegasus and its Alutech body,I'm pretty sure the one you repaired is the same body as used on my caravan.Brilliant job mate.

[@dottiepeper]

[@gunhole7059]

[@martinripley6574]

How much does something like this cost as I have a crack in my caravan ? Thanks

[@vanoholic416]

About 400 pound mate

[@iancoulthard6759]

How do you get best paint match

[@vanoholic416]

I normally find the closest then tint it by eye hope this helps

[@cubatime72]

Fair play that looks spot on

[@vanoholic416]

Thank q

[@sybaseguru]

Use 2 part epoxy resin (eg West Systems 105/205. A mini pack is < £25 )rather than polyester resin - it doesn't attack polystyrene and is much stronger. Use it neat with thin fibreglass mat or microfibres for strength as a base layer, mix with filler for easier sanding and paste like stiffness as a top layer.
