Hi Alan,
I agree you can wait to paint, or not paint at all. But if you have to, it is easier to do if the thing’s taken apart, which I only wanted to do one time.

You’ve got problems like mine, though my “MOT” (German TÜV) is still valid (albeit it counts for nothing in Switzerland). Fuel tank leaking, bad brakes, … rust … I began with my roof because I underestimated the poor condition underneath, and I actually thought I’d be camping in this vehicle once I got the roof watertight. Well, now that I’ve looked closer, I see it’ll be a long time before I’ve fixed my Land Rover problems to the point I can pass a Swiss MOT.

Anyway, I updated my roof site:

Have fun with Gelcoat, it smells nice 😉
