In the second VW T5 van project video I show you that you can indeed DIY spray paint a van and UV resistant clear coat for less than £200 and get a good finish. the paint we used is called Montana gold graffiti paint which I will link below. Let us know in the comments what you guys think of the colour and what we should do next to the van.

Brush painting is another alternative, after a year or so it can be flatted and compounded, i'm thinking of using hammerite smooth or simillar and i'm 100% confident of doing a fine job.
