Thank you!!😊 Yeah, it looks amazing now!!

Thanks! Really happy with the result!

@@Td5Adventures A lot of quality prep work!

Thank you! Good luck with your project👌🏼

Thank you and good luck!

Thank you so much!

Thanks! Yes, that would've finished it off together with some body work.

Thank you and good luck with that!😊

I said i would tackle it 2 years ago, but i lied to myself. Meanwhile, my crossmember developed a nasty rot on the bottom, so besides a thorough paint job, now i also have to do welding. Point is: never postpone maintenance on an old Defender. How is your paint job holdin’ up in your weather 2 years in?

Thanks, good luck to you!

Thanks, glad it is helpful! I used a red rust protective primer, no particular brand so I can't tell you the specific composition unfortunately.. It is a sort of filler primer. Works really well as you saw!

Thanks!! Oh nice with some galv👌🏻 I used Biltema products, their part numbers are: Art. 36-7419 (red primer) and Art. 36-7420 (black top coat). You can probably get cheaper stuff in any country outside Scandinavia though😅

Thanks!! I use Swedish products, Hagmans and Biltema. Don't think you can get them abroad😉

@@Td5Adventures Im not that far away! 😉 Both Mekonomen ans Jula sells Hagmanns. Thanks! I need to do the same to mine during the winter... 🏎💨

@@Sforbes727 oh okay awesome!!👌🏻👌🏻

🤣🤣🤣 Thank you!!

Thanks, hope it helped! The paint I used is sold as matt black. You can put a clear coat on it as well for extra shine if that's a preference!

@@Td5Adventures Thank you for your feedback, I like matt but a painting company that does body work for LR told me they use satin as matt goes chalky after a while... I need to do my rear and also the front bumper. :)

@@Cristo_Mario That sounds reasonable, I'd go with satin if they recommend it. Will probably be easier to wash as well 👌🏼

Thanks!! Can't get rid of rust unfortunately

Some generic one, no brand 😅
