Huge Paint Gamble on a 23-Window Samba (We Went Too Far!)

Описание: In this episode I take a huge risk wet sanding sections of poorly sprayed new paint on my Volkswagen Type 2 23-Window Samba Deluxe to reveal the original patina underneath. The goal is to save as much history as possible while carefully removing layers of bad respray.

This isn’t a quick job. It’s slow, methodical detailing and paint correction — testing techniques, revealing decades of character, and documenting the transformation.

I also reach out to restoration experts and fellow aircooled VW enthusiasts for input on specific details. If you know these buses or have experience with patina preservation, drop a comment. I’d love to learn from the community.

Thanks for watching. If you enjoy restoration and hands-on detailing content, consider subscribing. More episodes in this series are coming as we continue bringing this bus back to life the right way.

About the Bus:
1962 VW Samba nicknamed Percival, bought new by my great uncle – Percy. It has earned its patina, and lots of memories are baked into the finish.

If you’re into patina preservation, detailing, classic Volkswagens, or weirdly satisfying transformations — stick around for the series.
