mcc1979ian Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 im sure thats tangiers orange (as used in g4), prep is easily done yourself, me and a mate could strip, prep and paint a whole truck in 12 hours so a landrover shouldn't take you long, just get a cheap orbital sander and you will soon fly over the larger panels, and just leave you the trickier bits to sand by hand, this is the bit that takes the time. As for prices i honestly couldnt tell you as iv never paid for a paint job (got a great mate), just costs me for the paint which never exceeded £100. Just get plenty of 320 & 180 grit paper and some green scotchbrites to finish before painting and by yourself should manage it in a day excluding painting.

iomlt Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 painting is the easy part and you'll have it all painted in a hour or but there is lots and lots of prepping and if you want a really good finish getting the majority of the pannels into individual parts would be the ideal. which would take a age! the better the finish the more prep time need. the more prep you but into it the better the result.. :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackmac Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 that looks a very similar colour to mine. Mine is "MIPA OC T22 Hell Orange" according to the previous owners who sprayed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
