Dodge Van Paint Job

Faded Dodge Van in need of an overall paint job at Almost Everything Auto Body.

This older Dodge van has a beautiful, custom interior and still drove well but the exterior was really in need of a refresh. We took off all of the delaminating (blistering & peeling) paint then repainted the whole vehicle with a tough, single-stage Urethane.

1971 Volkswagen Transporter 2 Tone Paint!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1971 Volkswagen Transporter Van.  This Fahrvergnügen came to our shop as a primered eye sore of a transporter, looking for the right color scheme at the right price! The Van's owner had acquired a toy car that we based the color combo off of, we duplicated the Two-Tone finish with our premium "Base Coat / Clear Coat paint, then finished off the classic look with some silver pinstriping!

1986 Panel Van Transformation!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1986 Chevrolet van. Somebody decided to try their hand at a free paint job for the owners of this van, apparently not everybody shares the same taste in automotive finishes as the "artists" that painted this Chevy before us, and its owners had enough. They came to our shop looking to not break their bank, yet leave with great looking paint job. They decided on our "Enamel" paint material in a metallic turquoise picked right out of our color sample book! Before we could apply any paint to the van we removed all of the graffiti, rock chips, peeling paint, and other unsightly surface imperfections. Once the sanding was complete we applied a primer sealer, painted the entire exterior of the van, cleaned up all of the old spray paint from the chrome handles and returned the transformed Chevy back to its pleased owners!

1992 Dodge B350 Original Color Re-Spray!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is an extremely discolored 1992 Dodge B350 Van.  This massive transporter came to our shop with its original paint showing its age.  The van was originally light blue, over the years the beautiful glossy blue became a strange, flat, dirty looking color.  We began the color restoration of this van by first sanding out all of the existing chips and scratches, then sealing the freshly sanded exterior with a primer sealer.  The original color was then sprayed on in our Enamel paint grade!

1984 Dodge Ram Van Restored!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1984 Dodge Ram Van. This old-school conversion van came to our shop in dire need of lots and lots of help. As the pictures show, all of its original paint had either failed or had been sanded completely off! Since bare metal rusts extremely quickly we got it inside our shop as soon as we could, and began a sanding process of our own. We started by removing all of the old, failing paint with an extremely abrasive power sander, this took the exterior of the van down to bare metal in most areas. Once the sanding had been finished it was ready for primer, we sealed the entire van with our premium "Etching Primer"--a sealer that "eats" into the surface that it is applied to. As soon as the sealer was applied, the van was ready for two coats of new paint. The owner decided to have the van refinished with our "Bay Blue Effect" Enamel + UV protectant paint, for a long lasting durable finish that stands out from the crowd!

Work Van Color Restoration!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1986 Ford Econoline work van. This truck came to us looking like it was camouflaged, there were spots of unfinished primer all over its sides! We began by chemically cleaning the outside of the van to remove any bugs, wax, tar etc. Next we scuffed the old paint with an abrasive pad to roughen the surface so the new paint can "bite" onto it. From there we masked all of the windows and trim panels, painted the entire exterior with our Enamel + UV protectant paint, detailed it, and returned the van back to its owner looking glossy and new again!
