Make sure the socket is earthed to the van Lee.
These panels look the biz chap. Are you just screwing them to the frames with caps and screws?

If i do ever do this again I'm spraying the varnish on!!
I'm sick of brush painting!!!. :roll:

 

[squareweave]

Looking good, is that water borne varnish or oil based?

 

[Lee C]

Good question!

Smells like oil based to me.

Will look on the back of the tin tomorrow !

 

[Lee C]

Forgot to look at the back a the tin like!!

Anyway, still on with the interior ,

Varnishing done for now, till the headliner :shock: :shock: :shock: not looking forward to that!!

Started repairing the units, this fridge one had a rotten bottom & back, so I replaced them!

Oh & my new favy tool!!!!

Made all the better as I found it in the attic, no idea where it came from!! 8)

Also Darren managed to get the ignition working eventually!!!
After the 2nd new one I bought was different again!!!!!
Kat is going to return that during the week & order some better quality window winders n a few other bits!

 

[squareweave]

As always, looking good!!

 

[gninnam]

Looking very shiny is that there panel.... 8)

 

[aogrady]

Really nice this, did you sand inbetween coats? Or just the cherry varnish, then yatch varnish? 2 coats of each? Sorry for the questions, but would be stoked if mine came out as good as yours! :mrgreen:

BTW, Poor Henry looks like he's been snorting Pearle White - not good for your lungs.... :lol:

Cheers,

Alistair

Poor Henry got used as a panel stand one day n got primed!!

Cherry varnish then 3 coats of yacht varnish, DA'd down with 320 or 400 between each coat.

On to my 2nd tin of yacht stuff £15 a tin also invested in a Harris brush for £6 and I think the cherry stuff was on offer at £10, usually £15.

3 sheets of ply @ a fiver each as they were damp at one edge!









Oh & a fortnight of your life you'll never get back :lol:

Longing grand is that :mrgreen:

Suits the rest of the interior very well. Keep up the good work (and sort your screws out.......)
