Mercedes Sprinter diy Re-spray full colour change on campervan conversion

In this video I do a diy full colour change on my Mercedes Sprinter van even though I ain’t a spray painter I still gave it a go and so can you with a little knowledge and some equipment

I've been working at a body shop for a bit now and extra tips I learned was if you're painting the door, it's better to take off the mirror and belt molding (the trim at the bottom of the window) for a better paint job in the end. The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding.

Great job 👍 I’m looking to do mine as soon as it warms up a bit. What kind of gun and tip did you use? I don’t want to spend a fortune but don’t want any shit either. Cheers!

[@Chris-vc1dh]

How do do the underneath as well as they get a lot of rust there too?

[@ian_corbett]

It’s not that bad on my van was more bodywork that had any rust. Have a good luck when you’re viewing one then when you get one treat it anyway help prevent any rust 👍

@@ian_corbett yes, but when you get one you need to make sure engine is good too
