@ruivaleriano9273 not sure what you mean? But thanks for your comment 😀.

@@malcolmlatham-bennett931 thanks 😊

@MiniDaly87 I definitely don't want to use or say epoxy again 😂😂. Using the raptor in the boot is genius 😂. I'm also using in the car on the floor.

@velmathemini great for sound deadening I kept the original stuff in mine. Shock horror. It wasn't rotten anywhere so it's a saving. The carpets hide my sins 😂

@MiniDaly87 I removed my original sound deadening because of all the previous welding & some had already been cut up. I found rust underneath some of it too. The crossmember, bins & some other parts are getting base & clear, anything else like the bulkhead, floor & seat area get the raptor.

@velmathemini your probably right to remove it all I think I was just lucky with mine. Can't wait to see further progress mate. Just watching your other builds now cracking colour on the sportspack

@@MiniDaly87 I particularly liked the surf blue, probably my favourite 😍. It's a shame because I've never seen them since 😪. I think I painted those in 2007/2008. Although I think the date is on the pictures 😂

@Stubacca48 thanks Stuart 😊

@@jasonblann33 I thought about paint stripper bit decided against it, purely for the strong smell it gives off. So I just sanded it all with 80 grit & strip & clean wheels.

@Stubacca48 thanks Stuart 😊

@@MiniManLes thanks 😊

@paulp2129 thanks. The epoxy primer is upol, it's difficult not to get runs lol & it's 2k. In my garage at 18 degrees takes around 5 days to cure.

@MiniDaly87 agreed with the filler. I probably should of investigated this a few years ago & put a new qtr on, but hey ho, I'm down that rabbit hole now. Yes I have to do it panel by panel due to the lack of space. A respray can become overwhelming & I feel if I just concentrate 1 panel at a time it's easier. Thanks for your comment 😀😀.

@@babsilicious you should take a look tomorrow 😀

@@Stubacca48 it's a massive improvement from the 1k paint that was previously applied to the original paint. Thanks 🙂

@@MiniManLes I'm on bonus 😂😂

😂😂​@@velmathemini

@MiniDaly87 thanks john 😀

@@elizawoodridge4465 definitely Eliza 😀

@philhuggett4776 thanks for answering this question. I've got the part in my boxes of bits. Didn't know what it's purpose was though.

@@velmathemini I've just done a little googling and it looks like it's simply to collect fuel vapour rather than letting them vent to atmosphere. I'd just ditch it mate. Save having to clean up that bracket 😁

@games-hy7km no, I added the colour to the bedliner & just sprayed it on. Then just left it to dry. I used a 100ml solvent base.

@@leemellor7198 cheers Lee 😊

@leemellor7198 thanks Lee 😊

@@karlgt9989 I believe mine will be a shade off as well, but I'm fine with that. The protection the raptor will give out weighs the colour difference. It's definitely a good choice to use it. I'll be doing inside the boot & inside the car. I wasn't thinking of the bulkhead, but now you've mentioned it... I think it's a good idea. I've still got 3 bottles left & I'll save on base & clear if I use that.

@@velmathemini you can only tell on the sills if you really look but yeah its good stuff

@@martysprojects thanks 😊. I think the raptor is definitely worth it.

@@jonb8241 thanks 😊

@@Conor.Twomey thanks 😊. It'll put a smile on your face when you get there. Makes everything worthwhile.

@@classic1989mini thanks 😊

What a difference. Looks amazing!

@tbex9580 thanks 😊. It's definitely put a smile on my face.

@@MiniManLes thanks 😊

@Stubacca48 yes, I like to do 2 layers of sealer just incase I miss anything the first time around. Next I'll be using brush sealer wit a brush 👍.

@@velmathemini ah, that makes sense now. It's a good idea.

@@MiniManLes thanks 😊

@bettyboo2656 haha thanks beth. Keeps the dirt off my head & the sweat from my eyes.

@Stubacca48 😂😂 one of my favourite t-shirts

@@MiniManLes hopefully they'll turn out nice. I've not thought about tyres yet.

Thanks Lee. Happy to see you enjoying the process 😀

Cheers Lee

Thanks Lee 😊

Thanks for that... I'll give it a go. I know what you're saying about just the edge.

Thanks. Hopefully it'll help & with more cavity wax the protection will be 👌.

I've never used barcoat before. I wasn't planning on stripping the inside of the door. I could have used it. I think with a bare shell restoration I was better off doing it though. Thanks for watching 👍

If I'm honest, it's not to difficult upto this point.

You're definitely right. I'm glad my time is free. The cost of labour would be through the roof.

No worries 😁.

Apart from the outer edge where no sealer was used, the frame & inner door is in excellent condition. Yes the door has been skinned previously & it wasn't a heritage skin.

Hopefully I'll be able to help. I'm getting information from other TH-cam videos. Everything about paint is all me though.

Cheers Lee 👍

I've still to sound deaden the doors & a few areas on the qtrs, bulk head. The stuff I use I get from Curbar Paints in Oldham. The name of them is SPD-4 & I'm on my 4th pack. The dimensions are 500mm x 500mm x 2mm. You just grey scotch them & paint over. Hope this answers your question.

Thanks for your reply. Keep the videos coming. Good to see how others do business on the old classic.

@@alistairrussell4562 definitely more videos on the way. Just halfway through the drivers door skin at the moment.

Unfortunately I don't. The product I'll be using will be an upgrade with raptor.

@@velmatheminiOK, thanks.

Yes that's the idea 😊

It definitely is. I've used it a couple of times now on pickup trucks.

Thanks

Thanks

Everything that was magnum, they don't fit very well. But for the price they'll do the job nice. I went for heritage on all the outer panels & they fit really nice. Made it a little easier.

I got all the floor panels from Bullmotif, the outer panels from mini sport & some parts from minimine.

nice work in any case congratulations to you

@@EricCantrel-hs5fl thanks I appreciate that.
