Doofa Now is back - our 1977 RA28 Celica is finally getting a spot in the garage and we're chemically paint stripping the entire body! It looks so good in bare metal!

There's nothing like Saturday morning coffee and TBR 👌
Cheers!
Hahaha, when the captions are on it says you're going to Turtles in the park. Looks good naked. Good tips on surface prep before applying stripper. One mistake people make is not applying stripper thick enough, I teach my apprentices to apply it like jam on toast. The plastic on top helps stop it drying out and strip it better. So good to see you do that. I've found different strippers work differently on different paint types too. Cam stripper works really well and turco 5351 aircraft stripper is another but expensive. Aged stripper usually is black and doesn't work as well as it should.
Haha Turtles in the Park world be an interesting event 😂 good tips on the strippers, will definitely improve my game in the next one cheers!
I can't believe you sold the Supra! One of the most beautiful cars in a long time. This Celica looks like a Mustang from the back. Lots of good info on stripping also. The got rid of the really good strippers a few years ago (bad for the environment, blah, blah, blah). This model eventually turned into the Celica GT-S - the Supra forerunner, I think? Good episode Cam, thanks for sharing.
Yeah had to go to make room for other projects - might pick up a manual one when they release the final series. I think the Aussie stripper still has the good stuff, seems to be surrounded by cancer warnings. Glad you liked the ep!
Pumping out the episodes!

Oh my god im excited for this! Bare metal is gonna be so cool, makes me want to bare metal and clear coat my 85 hilux lol
Do it! Easy to fix scratches when you go bush 👍👍
@@TheBuildRoom what abouts surface rust hahaha
@@nathanfarrell1116 I'm looking into so products for that - will let you know if I find something!
@@TheBuildRoom thanks cam! Looking forward to it
Doofa looks great stripped back.
Glad to hear your leaving in bare metal. If you do any welding repairs leave them not properly ground back, give it the Frankenstein look It will be very cool.
I love the look, might have to look to see if it can be registered as bare metal. Definitely have a theme for Toyotas in the Park tho :)
@@TheBuildRoom clear coat it.
Then it’s has technically been painted
😮 Absolutely astonishing result! Well done! 🎉. I’m about halfway through stripping my paint but as soon as it STOPS RAINING I’ll be back at it
Such a rewarding feeling - totally worth the effort - good luck with it!
Hey Edmund - you won a shirt in my 50th episode giveaway - check out the next ep for details on how to get in contact so I can get something out to you!
Loving the channel Cam. Ive had my RA28 for 12 years and it’s been a parked up project that whole time! Ive finally (thanks to lockdowns) been able to patch all the rust. So my next step is stripping the paint and getting it ready for paint. Thanks for the motivation to keep chipping away at it.
Awesome - great to hear of another '28 being taken care of - good luck with it!
My Mazda 2 is going to look so good when I do this and the Mrs should be happy about it too.
Mate I didn't think it was possible for a Mazda 2 to look any cooler, but you might be onto something!
Not sure if it is available in Australia, but I used Citristrip on mine and worked well. Clings to vertical surfaces which is a bonus
Might give that one a shot - sounds slightly less toxic than the others 👍👍
Another good clip - keep up the good work Cam!
Thanks a ton!
New to the channel loving how you display the process of the restoration🔥
Welcome! Glad you liked the ep 👍
Awesome episode! I'm waiting to pick my rotisserie up and put my 22 on for stripping! I need a tee so I'm not doofa nekkid in the workshop!
Nice! Your going to love being able to flip it over, good luck with it!
Honestly it looks pretty great with the battle scars and dodgy repairs! Love the idea to take it in bare metal. Looking forward to seeing the repairs, but a coat of satin clear as-is would likely pull a good amount of attention (even if people have a laugh up close).
When I get to stripping mine I'll be using roller drum tool instead of a disc, but was wondering if I should use a chemical stripper first to help keep dust down. I'm planning to set up a makeshift "booth" with dust collection. Would you say the time would be better spent with a chemical stripper and follow up with abrasives or just go full send with the abrasives and dust collection?
To be honest I used to really dislike strippers, but in the right circumstances there's a lot of time savings to be made and it's much cleaner - just a pain when a lot of spray putty or filler is involved! Weighing up my options for protecting the bare metal, stay tuned!
Looks like a Delorean!
It feels like a time machine too! Takes me back to being 17 😂😂
This is cool , I like this ,now it gives ww2 jet fighter vibes now so xool
Yeah especially with the rivets on the door - I'm digging the vibe for now.
I’ve been using CAM (appropriate 😋) paint stripper at the restoration business I’ve been helping out at and that’s also dark. I’ve had mixed results with using plastic over the top or not. Sometimes I’ve found it worked a lot better without. But can definitely recommend giving that stripper a try in the future.
Lol, not sure i have the figure to be stripper but have seen the CAM range and will take a look 👍
Sick! Looking at a 77 coupe to buy currently. This is the only thing that qorries me with it though is hidden crap you can't necessarily see with the naked eye
Yeah its a bit nerve wracking to be honest, but if you're buying something check the usual places and run a magnet over it - dents aren't the end of the world but rust sucks!
@@TheBuildRoom what are the usual places for these cars?
put a coat of easyphos over it. It's what restoration places use on bare metal to prevent rust, while they're doing metal work repairs.
I was going to wipe it rust convertor like i did with my RA23 but didn't want to dull the metal for the show, does easyphos change the finish?
@@TheBuildRoom no it doesn't, maybe slightly greyer than bright steel, it can yellow if it's raining or really high humidity in the air at the time of application. Have a watch of the video 'Oxytech Anti-ox and easy phos' on the youtoobs
Good stuff! My dad and myself stripped the same green paint off my ra28, are you located Brisbane?, Im 2 hours from Toyotas in the park and would like to take mine there
Nah Perth based mate, glad to hear there's plenty of Toyotas In The Parks run around Oz tho 👍
If 1st gen Celia's don't excite you in the slightest, you should go to a doctor to check your pulse. Keep up the good work 👏 👍
Thoroughly agree! I just need to look at this thing and my resting rate gets a bump.
@@TheBuildRoom a tidy RT104 also goes a long way though
Hey mate, hows the r34 goin?
R34 is going Ok, doesn't get driven much as no heater and no AC but I have all the parts now to sort that and give it a once over so it will have some episodes done on it once Doofa has gone to the show. Also have a bunch of tge parts for the big build so can get stock into that soon too👍
@@TheBuildRoom can’t wait mate, sounds exciting
Did you get in trouble for playing with so many stripper's? 😂
Kelly complained vigorously about the smell if that counts 🤣🤣🤣
Bare metal i awsome
I'm loving the look!
I have to strip mine, not looking forward to it...
Rip the bandaid off!
Dude why don't you cut to the chase and get to the point. No one cares about anything else but what you have titled. Just tell us what clear coat you used to prevent rust.
Title doesn't say anything at all about rust prevention, but if you just want to know what I treated the metal with the answer is... Nothing.
@@TheBuildRoom What? So how do you deal with the rust?
