    Good job! Thanks for the painting tips, I was considering a wrap but your finished rollered paintwork looks great. Enjoy!

    Thanks...If you're going to roller yourself I would definitely recommend thinning the paint

    Looks great. Have you got any tips for the military paint? Do you need to thin it down? Where did you get the paint from? I'm looking at painting my van soon probably two colours matt black n grey
