Painting Our Van on a Budget - Part 2

Here he is, Bruce 2.0!
We're so happy with how he's turned out, and for less than £125 too which seems crazy in comparison to the £2,000+ price tag of a professional re-spray.
Thanks for watching!
If you have any questions about our paint job feel free to message us through Instagram @thewoodlandnomads.
Hopefully we can hit the road soon and bring you guys some proper vanlife exploration!
Here's the paint we bought:

I am going to give it a go. Ideas from you really help

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Best of luck, no doubt you'll love the result 😁

You guys come across as such nice genuine people. You have achieved a quality paint job on a budget. Respect. Hope you are fulfilling all your adventure dreams.

What a wonderful comment, thank you so much ♥ hopefully you like the rest of our channel 😝

Brilliant job, you've given me inspiration to do mine this year 🤘

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Thank you, best of luck 😁

[@michaelohehir3779]

My God, one of the best finishes I have seen. I can't believe how well the Green turned out.

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

I was very impressed too, such an improvement on what it was like before 😁

[@ironian24]

It looks amazing, guys. I got a quote to spray my van professionally, and it would have cost 5k.

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Thanks again. Yeah man, the price for a professional spray is mad, or even raptor paint too in comparison! I think you can raptor spray as a middle ground price. Suuuuper hard wearing stuff but it's all about budget really.

[@thewanderer8]

Impressive job!

[@rashb3994]

From basic to bad ass, this is sick!!! It looks worth 50k - 80k more. I've got a very basic looking but reliable car. This inspires me to make something dreamy out of it instead of wasting money on something newer. Thx for inspiring!

From basic to badass, love it, and thank you. There's plenty of stuff on this planet already, better to make something awesome out of something already here, there will be life in that motor of yours yet 😁 thanks for the watch and comment 👍

There’s loads of these videos on here but yours really shines. Can’t wait to do my Iveco minibus conversion a similar colour. See you out there 👍

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Aww thank you so much! It's not our favourite video, we much prefer our adventure vids but it seems to come in useful for lots of people :) Stay safe and hope the build goes smoothly 💚

Ebay mate, was the best price we could find at the time ☺

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Thank you Bobby! We're glad our videos could help you. Make sure and buy more paint if it's a bigger van, we used every drop ☺ Best of luck. Definitely better to do it in winter/spring, less bugs to stick to the paint haha.

hello,i like your van great paint job👍how does the paint holds so far? thinking to paint my audi the same colour, thank you guys.

It's held really well!! No flaking whatsoever mate 👍 does leave a textured finish with the roller, worth keeping in mind.

[@theworth123]

Brilliant job very well done... Love the colours too... I'll be doing my just as yours... One question if I may,,, painting the roof box did you sand it first or apply a primer, I ask because I have two grey boxes to do on mine and I don't want them to peel at all later on. Cheers..

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Thank you Tony! Yeah we always had dark green in our minds from the beginning. We didn't prepare the roof box at all, no. It's a rough plastic material so we took our chances, not had any flaking happening yet and it's survived a Scottish summer or rain, sun, rain and more rain so I think it should hold. Might depend on your box material but this paint does well to cover most surfaces! Hope that helps.

[@agee8322]

Looks great! But, dont forget to change colour on logbook to avoid a tug from dibble ...... l found this out when my van went from white to satin black. Opps ;-)

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

First time we sent the logbook off they sent it back unchanged which was a nightmsre but we got it listed as green eventually 😝 shame we can't have it listed as a camper too!

have u had to tell dvla about the change of paint and if so how easy was it I want to paint my lwb tranny but don't no about the payper work lol

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

I did mate. It's super easy. Your V5 logbook has a section in it to submit vehicle changes. Simply write in that the colour is different in the specific section of the logbook and post it to them. You don't need to supply evidence or anything. Tell your insurance company too.

[@DeanRead]

Bruce looks amazing 😍😍 I saw in another comment that you ordered 2 x 2.5 litre cans, was 1 can of each colour enough to paint the whole van? We have a Fiat Scudo so slightly smaller. Really enjoyed watching, looking forward to seeing more of your adventures 👍

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

Hey Dean 😁 Yeah that's all we needed. It's was close though because of the roof rack and box. Having a smaller van without the roof gear would easily be covered twice by the 5L. You'd have leftovers to top up any scratches that happen in years to come too ☺

[@aaronmitchelluk]

You guys are great. Really enjoyed both parts to this video. I’m looking at doing my estate care in this style so this was very helpful. Where did you purchase the paint from?

Hi great job could i ask what colour this is. Is it nato green and how much paint did u use im painting my t5 so should be same amount any advice be great thnak you

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

It is Nato green, yes. I've bought this paint since and it seems a bit thinner now, I guess they're trying to turn a better profit so I'm not 100%. I know I used two tins for this van, so a total of 5L I think, but that was super thick compared to what it is now! Always best to have too much though, always need the odd top up 🎨

Thank you, I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that. I would suspect it's resistant to most liquids as it is used in the army for painting trucks and jeeps. Your best bet is messaging a supplier on ebay or similar to see if they have the answer, maybe?

Did the black go streaky at all was there much orange peel on the paint?

[@TheWoodlandNomad]

The black was a little streaky. In hindsight we should have thinned it a little as we painted on such a warm day it was drying super fast! Orange peel? The only pealing that happened was on the roofbox which is made out of a textured plastic and we didn't expect a good finish anyway. Hope that helps.
