    Raptor Respray Land Rover 90 Advice needed

    Hah, yes... A bold choice in colour I think, I'm still adjusting to it. I think once the emblems and other accessories are on I should be swayed. I have yet to put anything back on her, I will wait until the paint is rock solid first. It's quite rubbery, more so than what the black was but I...

    Raptor Respray Land Rover 90 Advice needed

    Hi V8250, Thank you very much for your help, I ended up using a paint stripper to remove the paint, as it happens I only had to wipe over once and the sander was then able to do the rest without clogging up. I then sanded, filled bashed out a load of dents followed by panel wiping the whole...

    Not the case at all, I was simply asking for suggestions. I literally couldn't sand it off with 80 grit paper.

    Raptor Respray Land Rover 90 Advice needed

    Hi V8250, The problem I'm having is the black rattle can paint, rather than sanding off into dust it just clogs up the sanding disc even on 80 Grit, even on a small cycle... I'm going to etch prime it regardless but removing the black paint it just ridiculous, I'd probably have more luck with...

    Raptor Respray Land Rover 90 Advice needed

    Thanks for the response Kev, I did think that would be the case, I'll just sand and fill anywhere that needs it and prime it with etch. Also, what should I use for the joins on the roof? I was thinking seam sealer, prime and spray?

    Ah I see, so the frc2644 is the chrome version I'm assuming?

    Swivel ball I.D please help

    How do you know these things? Thank you so much. I have looked for the frc2644 and can't find any other than ones at an astronomical price. Job Craddock says to use the FTC5105, would this be compatible?

    Swivel ball I.D please help

    So I've only just gone and ordered the wrong swivel ball. I'm struggling to identify the number I need, there's listings with 'DA' and 'FRC' and axle numbers and whatnot, and I've managed to confuse the life out of myself. I have attached photos of the unit and was wondering if someone could...

    Covid-19 and MOT's

    So I'm in a bit of a predicament, my landy has run out of MOT on the 22'nd of this month and I'm worried I can't get it done whilst lockdown carries on, I need it to tend to livestock. I know the govt has announced an extension but I assume that is for people who have a current MOT, not one...
