Volkswagens are my thing and I'm impressed with your LEXAN LOVE BUG.

This Beetle looks superb...once again Josh plies the pigments and the Rust Streaks with a masterly touch - and on lexan!

Awesom job ! I love it when someone shows people how to do alternative painting options for lexan bodies. And on a side note for everyone that has lexan bodies that are a little beat up or maybe they messed up there paint job being there first time or just dont like the color anymore they can mask the windows strip off the stickers clean it thoroughly and re spray it from the out side and just like that you have a new look. I would love to see someone like you show people how to do something like that . Either way awesome video my man !

Great project! Usually I cut the protective coating around the windows and use that as the window mask..

If you paint the inside of the body a rust color, every time you scratch it it will add a natural patina... :)
