I'm considering to buy this landy which is good and all but it's ex MOD so fully camo...does anybody know how much could set me back to re-paint it?


Thanks,


:D
 
are yer gonna do it yerself or pay someone?
how much effort are you gonna put in to preparation?
what sort of paint do you want to use?
are yer gonna spray it or use a brush / roller?
how lomg is a piece of string?
 
Have a go yersel'. If ah remember rightly, a 5lt tin cost me about £30. Borrowed a neighbours compressor, bought a cheapo spray gun from halfrauds, bought a 5lt tin of primer, tin of thinners and a tin of hardners anaw.
5lts is more than enuff and allows for a lot of cockin' up:D

That'd be my first approach, did you just use masking tape over windows and other bits you didnt want to paint?

By the way, I was also looking at a Landy exactly like yours, is it a good machine?

:D
