Painting School Bus | Short School Bus Conversion Ep. 11 | KEANU ShortBus

Описание: This week on Keanu ShortBus, we finally were able to completely paint Keanu. You all had spoken and we painted the bus a grey color. We chose “Chop Top Silver” but it definitely looks more grey then silver. Thankfully we taped the black side panels and now it has some contrast against the grey. We did a mediocre job at the painting. Definite respect to those people who paint cars for a living! Now we know why it costs so much. The paint job we did works, just don’t look at it closely because you’ll see a lot of imperfections. Water/drip marks…Uneven paint distribution…Paint where there shouldn’t be any…but hey, we completed the task though! Cheers!

Timeline:
• 1 day to sand
• Half a day to power wash and soap wash
• Half a day to paint the roof top (3 coats)
• 10-11 hours to tape
• 4 hours to prime (2 coats). We would recommend probably take another 2 hours to do third coat
• 4 hours to paint it grey (2 coats). We would probably recommend to take another 2 hrs to do a third coat
• 1 hour to peal off the tape

Next week: No idea. Painting was exhausting. Probably take a break.
