DIY Land rover 110 respray.

A few little bits on how i painted my mates land rover. I'm no expert but that is a good bench mark to see how hard the job is to do your self. this isn't a restoration job but looks 20 years newer after the job is done. a bit of prep masking and paint and the land rover looks good for another 5 years.

Back in the 90s in Australia, we buy Industrie enamel. Which was a lead based enamel. Very hard and stay shiny for many years. I heard today guys are buying cheap oil-based enamel and adding 2pak harder to it. Very cheap and long lasting.

great vid Rich, I've got to re-paint mine after having some welding done on the bulk head

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Ian Deakin ah that's always a chore to blend it all in. Iv got a bit of rust on mine again.

[@rickgreen626]

Thanks Rich

[@chrishopper33]

Awesome job guys! Love the final colour but gotta be honest I quite like the primer as a final colour as well.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

chrishopper33 it did look good in the street but it stands out in the woods so more green and black haha.

[@PavleBalenovic]

Nice work, absolutelly well done. I like the color, indeed. I planned mine to change but it remained white as it was for more than 20 years. Hope some time in the future ...

[@geoffpriestley7001]

Right now get an assortment of hammers and put a dint in every panal ,then use the large one to bend a bumper you've got yourself a landrover

[@wizardorlegend]

I guess it's all just down to confidence and having the units just to give it a go. It looks awesome, he best be t cutting every week to keep it shiny. I do have to say tho Karl looked a bit lost with masking tape in his hand and no welding mask on. Lol.

[@millin2222]

Any tips on how to remove raptor/bed liner paint???

[@RatchetMonkey]

Looks alot lighter than military green. Can you remember the paint code? Thanks I like it

[@johnbannana480]

Not sure if you mentioned but it would be great to have seen the process before this. I'm assuming it was orbital sander or did you have things sand blasted or anything and then assuming there will have been filling, more sanding cleaning and then the primer?

[@Reaper4367]

Top stuff Richo. Thanks again for sharing. Shame tradies here in Aus aren't that helpful. Hooroo cobber.

I want to paint my 110 hicap. Do i need to strip off the existing paint or can i paint over?

[@raccoonradar]

queue the professional painters advise, once painted a mk2 escort in my dads garage with an electric spray gun, came out better then a (not going to call him a friend) work colleagues painted in a spray booth

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

raccoonradar Hahahaha got to love the Internet experts.

[@Dustypilgrim1]

That looked so easy... But , then again you buggers know what you're doing . Last time I used my spray gun it was on the decking and fence. Almost 'spray tanned' the neighbour. Stupid fucking place to sunbathe when some twat on crutches is jigging about wafting a 'loaded' spray gun about. I did tell her the darker brown shade I was using was a nicer finish than the dodgy orange she usually ended up having... I even offered to fill in the white bits for her... She didn't seem impressed really. A mystery that .No pleasing some folk . Is it an oversprayed one coat job Rich , or multi-coat ? Looked like the prep, especially the masking off, took way longer than the spray-up . Looks really good. nice one.

[@dantonk1]

Great vid, just come across it, and it’s given me the confidence to do my series myself. Where’d you get the paint from? Also, all paint vapour and the dude at the end not wearing a mask, I’m not sure that’s the greatest idea, but I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to safety - I tend to want to protect my lungs! I’m pretty sure this paint is really toxic, so please do wear a mask….

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

😂 so you didn’t have the confidence to paint your car but you knew enough to tell me everything I’m doing wrong while actually cracking on.

[@dantonk1]

No mate, as I said, I liked your video… it’s really inspired me to crack on with my series…. I’m just pretty sure that the paint is really toxic…. Not criticism, more like ‘take care of yourself’! Apologies if it came across the wrong way…

[@gavinmills2611]

Hi I’m respraying my van tomorrow with military paint did you thin the paint down?

[@davidgaylord2035]

i don't want to see any scratches on that new paint after the 1st outing

[@poulsonarrow]

Looking like the A team worked their magic, and yeh the prep done well makes for a easy class fin.... any new underseal being done to finally give this the seal of bombproof Rich ?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

poulsonarrow my mate is doing the back out and a few other bits to finish it all off but this is as far as I'm going with it as Iv got a tone of bits to do on mine.

Cheers Rich for the reply, been looking around myself for something Landy's sure holding their prices , plan is my bro and i are at some point soon doing a total bug out ie looking to go full time living out of van , truck, how's your project going ie that truck ? ... def looking at something without that tech brain system more nuts bolts ( emp ) attack ;) ha .

[@p.oneill6943]

Rich can you help me?... have a 1991 Defender Diesel 2.5 and she has Not been started in sixt years, she is outside what is your advice to me before I try and fire her up...? Should I try and get her to turn over by hand first before I turn her over on the Battery? I am afraid I will destroy the Piston Rings I need advice Please......................................................................................

[@jamesforbes_mtb2380]

this is cool but i work in a defender garage and you NEED to remove the wheel arches and doors when you spray your landy. over time they will move or sag and the difference in colour becomes abviose. really you should remove everything ...

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Come on at what point did this look like a tutorial for a professional respray? What I do is DIY stuff that anyone can do. It even says is in the title of the vid.

[@jamesforbes_mtb2380]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk yes of course and I don’t want to seem negative what you have done is wicked! But it’s is probably quicker to take if the arches and know it is a clean coat than have to risk masking around them. Either way still looks cool as 👍

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

@@jamesforbes_mtb2380 the thing with the military paint is it needs doing every few years so there is no point going mad with prep. It’s already faded so needs doing again.

[@jamesforbes_mtb2380]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk ahh fair enough I didn’t know that makes sense now

[@marksmith7354]

Hi I know it's been a year since the defender was painted we have a defender csw to respray we were taken for 5700 quid for work that wasn't done we were told by the people we bought it off its worse than when we bought it off them now 3 years down the line getting ready to paint it we wanted to know roughly how much paint in ltrs we need yours looks great regards marie

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Mark Smith it depends what paint you use and how many coats you put on. I only use the military 1k paint and I buy it in 5L tins and I usually have around 2L left over.

Kevin W it might drop on your time zone better then. I normally aim for 1200 on a Friday but I'm off work waiting for parts to go to an event. So it's still early. Have a gods one mate.

[@coloradokevin1675]

Thank You. I work 2nd shift during the week and the 1st thing I do when I get home from the gym after work is check KZbin. I'll watch Thursday nights closer.

[@daviddirom7429]

Always enjoy your videos, especially at your new outdoor location. Question are those Rhodesian camo pants your wearing?. Where did you get them if they are, even if they are reproductions. Thanks David

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

David Dirom I'm pretty sure they are Dutch issue. It's the same pattern as British Dpm but the material is twice as thick and they have better buttons and stitching. I got them from a surplus shop in mexborough but they can't get any more. At £9 they make grate work ware.

[@davidgaylord2035]

O.D. Green LOL

[@davidgenthnerjr4995]

Great video Rich. Yeah 120 grit scratches won't hurt that. We used to scuff all the 5 ton cargo trucks with 180, and that CARC paint would fill every bit of it. Is that actual military grade flat paint or auto part store satin paint you sprayed?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

David Genthner Jr it's an old school enamel 1k paint so it sticks well and fills the small sanding scratches after the grip coat.

[@biglebowski8108]

without removing lights ? door handles ?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Big Lebowski it’s a military Land Rover so it’s been hand painted for years. If it was a perfect job all those items would need to be new.

[@Mardy-old-Bstard]

Very nice. Just about to paint my series 2a and wondering if synthetic is the way to go. is it a satin finish?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Optimistic Nihilist the series two would have been mat if it’s military but it never lasts long so I always use the 1k satin paint. It’s trade paint on eBay under military Land Rover paint.

[@Mardy-old-Bstard]

Thanks for the reply. This 2a is unfortunately far from original. So I'm making most of it as is. It's fully stripped. Mostly blasted and will be bare metal respray. Thanks again and keep up the excellent work

[@danthetourist]

Great video, could have done with someone who knew what they were doing looking over my shoulder when I sprayed Wylf. Great idea! So I have a question, I used metal paint on the roof and I did it on my drive. It was quite late when I finished (21:30) and I mixed the paint with acstone. Anyways the next morning the roof should have been gloss black but turned out Matt? Any idea what happened?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Dan Lloyd at a guess it was the cold damp air that has affected the chemical reaction where the thinners is still escaping the paint. I'v got it on my rear step where it warned a few hours after I painted it and you can see the droplets. Best thing to do is pick a sunny day where the sun can bake it midday to speed the reaction up.

[@danthetourist]

Bug out vehicles UK Torn Apart self sufficiency. Cheers buddy, I kinda thought the cold done something to it as the same thing happened about 20 years ago when I I rattle canned a mini ooops!

[@ianwright40]

Why would you paint it with a matt finish?

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Ian Wright it’s not. It’s a satin finish just like all the new military vehicles. Gloss vehicles reflect light and are easily seen.

[@jamesmorrall6834]

Hi, hope you can take the time to help me out. I am planning on respraying my 110 with military vehicle paint, I bought some etch primer also. Did you use etch primer in this video? So sand 120-180 grit, etch primer then a few coats of military vehicle paint? Thanks.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

James Morrall I only usually etch primer the bits that go back to metal but the guy who prepped this did everything. Can’t complain tho it still looks well to this day.

[@jamesmorrall6834]

Bug out vehicles UK thanks, yeah looks a great job! So I would be okay using etch primer over a mix of bare metal and key’d paint like this video? Only I bought etch primer and hi build primer, was planning on etching the lot then hi build on top before the enamel paint. But if etch worked on this vid I’ll stick to that.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

James Morrall just make sure the primer has time to cure so it doesn’t react

[@jamesmorrall6834]

Bug out vehicles UK thanks man, I’m planning on getting as much of the paint off as possible beforehand anyway. How many coats of etch was used and then how many of the Military paint? Appreciate the help.

[@Tekspert]

[@amedeebollee7032]

I cringe ,,,, 2 seconds in and the chap is sanding without a block... always always use a block ,, your finger will leave little gullies and indents, and will take away the paint before you hit any high spots and gorge deeper. Also if you hit metal you have gone too far ... and what is with 120 grit ... what are you sanding ,,, a wooden post ,,, hells bells people all that work you have done and you are giving yourself more

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Amédée Bollée this has been brush painted for years and was peeling off leaving chunks a few mill deeper than other bits so going round with a 500 grit would be pointless. This is re painting a military Land Rover with military paint not a new Range Rover.

[@amedeebollee7032]

my mistake you are right, just thought it my save you some time. just didnt want you turning those high spots into lows and having to start over. And Columbo`s "one more thing" have you ever tried putting the masking tape on the paper first.? like for over the mud guards. it will save you even more time ! atb
