Made a start on my front calipers these past days, stripping the blue from the calipers is a nightmare. The stuff is like glue and has taken two days on and off to clean them ready for paint.

Efforts of my labour below, Cadbury purple.

Bit of scuttle deadening!
Would have done it sooner but it took a bit of time to get around to un-seizing the wiper! Had to heat it without melting the plastics

Changed the Banded Defender steels for some alloys. Needs dropping a bit more now.

Are you hands still in one peice? That stuff is sharp and the scuttle is no easy place to sound deaden. Good job though @MikeWillmott

You just need to replace that rubber band with a tyre now.

That what you need to get the lows mate.

Those callipers look great btw - love the colour.

What’s the mattress youve used??

IKEA futon mattress, the cheapest. It was around £60. It is not perfect, as the base folds but the largest piece had to be cut and I'm yet to cut and sew the cover to allow it to fold easily but it works for now.

Put T6 Forum stickers on the Van.

Cheers mate. A chore to strip though. Not doing a colour change ever again… famous last words.
