Post by: Lanny on October 16, 2008, 07:09:24 AM: Although the 67 is in Paris, I haven't abandoned the VW scene. :)Watch out for the new 120MPH grocery getter.. I am taking on more jobs big and small, floor pan replacement to full out builds. Current builds include a 1956 Ghia, 60 Cal Look, etc. Give me a call to chat about your next project. 604-202-7810

Post by: kirin on April 14, 2010, 11:37:48 AM: Big bump for Lanny. He masterfully pieced my beetle pan together in very short order. This man is truly an artist/ master/ encyclopedia of knowledge. Pricing is very reasonable and he can tackle nearly anything and he gets the job done! Looking forward to sending more work his way in the future.

Recently completed major work on a 59 Westfalia and a 57 Kombi. I guess I'm working on busses again:) We're currently doing MAJOR surgery on Hanawa's 56 Ghia, this will be a show stopper.
I have an open spot at the shop before the next wave hits.

PDT_Armataz_01_37 Need some pics your work is killer....

i agree!

even tho alot of us are familiar with lanny's superb work and fine attention to detail...there are alot of people out there who just dont know what kind of high caliber work is being done. plus a few before/during/after shots really let everyone know what kind of transformation a car has had and how much work has gone in to it (check out 1/2 way down page 1 in the link below)...

http://www.classiccaradventures.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=31

i understand that every job/build cant be documented but a few pics every once & awhile will showcase some of your skills, keep everyone up to speed AND keep your thread at the top of the page too! ;) :cool:

Yes, Barry has done my painting for nearly four years. He gets to breathe that shit:) Plus, it's all waterborne products these days, getting very tough to get any single stage urethanes:( Barry should have some bus paint pix.

Painter here..... If you want a good, no, excellent, single stage urethane RM was able to keep their UNO line through all the changes. With a small change in solvent they were able to keep it less than the max VOC levels... I have to use it on my 57 as there is no BC/CC formula for L271. I think RM now has the last GOOD urethane Single satge..

Post by: Lanny on November 17, 2010, 09:49:30 PM: That's what's on my boat, UNO. It's holding out just fine. At least it's BASF, same parent company as Glasurit.

Im assumimg you have no sample for your L271 otherwise they should be able to make a waterbourne basecoat formula for you.

Post by: Herrlowlight on January 29, 2011, 01:44:00 PM: Hey Guys,

Like it needs to be said.. Barry fixed the roof on my deluxe and it looks perfect. I had it painted 12 years ago in Glasurit. Barry matched the paint with the new water based stuff and it looks awesome.
