Hey everyone!
It's finally time to Paint the Cab and the Bed, of the little Unimog 421
It took a lot of thinking to pick out a color. but i think it's going to look fantastic!
If you want to follow this build from the start, Here is a link to the First video:
• Unimog Barn-Find. part...
I have also made a playlist, for the whole build. you can find that here:

The color was a surprise as I was betting on matt red but I really like how the sand color makes all the cabin curves so visible and beautiful. This Unimog will definitely be noticed and admired on the road.

I'm a paint amateur, but I spray a thin coat of water on the floor before I paint. I think it helps both with the dust from the floor and the paint dust. But your finish result was good anyway, I like the colour.
@rchobby1979
@rchobby1979 Ай бұрын
I used to do the same but got the tip to not do that anymore. It puts too much moisture in the air which can get trapped in the paint. Just sweep the floor and let the dust settle for a while. Any small particles can be polished out when the paint is dry.

An interesting idea for a color scheme... Tonka yellow. With black trim. Maybe a little TONKA decal on the bed.

Just mask off the front bumper area and take it to satin black. Some shine, but also not going to show damage easily.

Thats a good color choice. And probably even not too far off from what you could have ordered back then. RAL 1011 was a standard choice. I cant understand why everybody wants to have a standard green unimog either. Yes a huge portion of those mogs came with it from the factory. But it was quite special back than that you could choose the colour on a tractor and many did choose different colors. But so many if them get painted green too. Especially when they were orange, because orange sadly drops your value. But there were many cool colour choices to be had back then. Mine is in a "standard blau" which was a more expensive option. So im gonna keep thst. Although i quite fancy the kiselgrau. On thinge i understand: bright and shiny colours can be annoying on the inside, if your whole interior is thaz color.

A lot of the different models of mogs over the years seem to be painted in different pastel colours I believe this shade always suits the shape and it what you get use to seeing 🇬🇧🇮🇪.

I've always admired your work, you are such inspiration and the one to blame for me going from functional to full restoration of my 421. I've always had a penchant for desert colors, but they can be a pain since all your greasy fingerprints will stand out on that desert beige. I have the LR G4 Challenge Orange in mind for mine.

Is this a hobby or a profession for you? I'm curious because your expertise are obvious, but you also seem to have some pretty amazing and enviable equipment and resources. Do you sell the end product to finance this? Love this particular series and I satiate my (unexplained, but very real) passion for classic Unimogs vicariously through these videos.

Really, really curious to hear your verdict on whether the stone chip paint helps with reducing the resonance/vibration of the panels. After doing my Niva last year and very, very generously spraying it with stone chip paint it was a lot more quiet than expected (with absolutely all sound deadening removed) and with my new project, a Suzuki SJ410, I wonder if I should go down that route again as it is even more rattly and tinny than the Lada was.

No, i did give it two coats of the beige paint. i just didn't film the second layer. (as it was just more of the same) but i did mention it in the video, right before showing the final result. :) And no, with this being an industrial paint, it doesn't need the clear coat, for protection. and i also wanted to avoid that shiny finish. :)

Kaspar, Unimog ser fantastisk ud, og du skal være stolt af den, min eneste bekymring er, at den endelige farve over den røde blyprimer skal have mindst 6 lag for at forsegle den ordentligt for at stoppe "gennemstrømningen" af primeren. hilsen Pete

Yeah, and I'm a bit skeptical that he only applied one coat of beige paint and no clear coat. The 2 coats of rust protective primer will of course prevent any rust, but it would be a real waste after all that hard work if the overall beige paint would look crappy after 1-2 years.

Well, with this being an industrial Paint, and not an automotive lacker, it will never get that nice smooth finish. so it mostly be a waste of time, to do all the wet-sanding and such :)

Those new silent compressors I am not a fan of, all rubber diaphragms and universal motors, guaranteed to break after only a short while, and also unlikely to have much spare parts back up either. Yes oil less design, but also a tank that is not designed to last long either, made from thin steel that will rust through after a few years as well. But probably not going to last that long anyway.

all modern stuff is trash. I found a used compressor from a old brand that make the same industrial compressors for more than 60 years. heavy duty, high pressure old fashion stuff. 5hp motor. they wanted to trash it. I bought it and some parts, yes they still make parts for them and it runs and runs....

Kool. Now you have an American Unimog in Desert Storm colour. ( ; A bit more pale than I'd have expected and 10% of our military ones are that colour for the navy and airforce who also have a blue that looks horrid. Some of our service fleet in the army are about that colour also. It is hard to make vehicles green IMHO. It feels more wannabe (" want to be") than owning a Harley Davidson.
