Is there no end to this mans talent mechanic engineer Spray painter raccoon keeper etc etc

OK, I think you just persuaded me not to paint my car myself but it did bring back happy youthful memories of painting a car wing in the rain; hair dryer in one hand, rattle can in the other and a blanket over my head to keep us both dry for long enough...

Always polished the driver's side .. hilarious..love it..

Job well done Mike. Nice to get things sealed up for the winter.

You have done it well considering the cold weather

Nearly there with that one, looks good Mike

You could try suspending a heat gun about three foot above whilst spraying,works for me but be careful,extra hardener I've found to cause paint problems,thin coat of hardener rich then normal ratio mix over the first before it's fully cured seems to work

Looks very smart matey !!!

Hi Mike you are helping me know end and I am complaining a little bit of forst on the van please try to keep warm and keep videos coming many thanks Eliot

Gotta love a white roof on a landie. Really brings out the colour of the mildew and moss that'll ineviably grow in the corners and gutters. I absolutely loathe painting/bodywork but, unless you're determined to achieve an OEM look, might it be an idea to use one of those "bedliner" paints to get a tough/durable roof finish without a lot of effort? EDIT: Also, should say that pickup looks absolutely mint. Might be an old workhorse but it looks totally straight and solid.

I don't think I've heard the word Aspenite for 30 years. Can't see why Defenders need roll bars when you see how strong the roofs are :-) My salamander heater is scary. I'm afraid to have it on in the shop when I'm in there, and afraid to have it on when I'm not :-)

Nicely done Mike, I'm going to have to redo my whole truck later on when its all back together, was thinking of painting it the same white as my wife's 2012 90. I think that's Fuji White but not sure, anyway looks real white like your roof, so If I can't get that white I'll use the Alpine. :) PS:(I do have a crazy half a mind to do some sorta cammo scheme - was pondering Zebra, but SWMBO was not impressed with that idea)

Hi Mike, How do you adjust the door gaps? On mine the drivers door leans back at the top so the door almost fouls on the truck cab behind, can it be adjusted without having to adjust the angle of the bulkhead? thanks

Thanks for more great content Mike, hope you're staying warm in the snow. I own a hcpu td5 version and I'd like to remove the sliding rear cab window and just have it as a solid piece of glass, never really used the window here with our fabulous English weather and it's one less rattle. Do you think this is possible, maybe get auto glazier to cut and fit? Thanks Mike

I had a space heater it put fine mist of diesel over everything

Sand a piece of piece of plastic with a clogged disc or a carpet tile,friction semi melts the plastic and pulls of the clog! You can tell what the temperature is visually in the workshop from the extra hardener!!!lol
