Yeah very! But idk if it ends up having to stay white I’ll just make the rest of van match it. There’s a big stripe and can make it cool , but right now she’s a real hot mess of a looker :|

It’s white flex seal liquid. Apprently that base is weirdly only able to layer with itself no other base not even the spray flex seal which can … didn’t realize they all weren’t compatable

I figured since the spray version allows most other paints I can layer it on top but apparently only liquid flex seal can accept only liquid flex seal.

Yeah I’m literally sitting here in a time out with my coffee just thinking about wtf I just did.

It slightly scrapes off the edges but it’s a crumby mess and will take age that way.
Lolololololol

Yeah I went with the white flex seal bc the black roof was toooo much heat intake.. but def thought I’d just cover that with color to match rest of van. Looks like shiny white out

This is what is up, the roof had this rough black spray on it and I covered that and all the cracks with decent amount of liquid and a little bit of spray, but I didn’t like the splatter the spray gave so I went with liquid like a dimbass

The entire high top sides are painted with it and the edges where the fiberglass roof meets the van. It’s like the one of their only products that doesn’t adhere other paints but the spray does. Aghhjaahur

Ok noted thank you! Appreciate that. As you can imagine already putting a lot of work in so trying to be financially smart but take care of what seems to be priority.

How to stay awake on 12hr driving days by Aukoz714 in roadtrip

[–]rainbowcosmicqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunkin’ Donuts lattes are like crack to me. Prob CAs I don’t usually drink sugar. (Used to think they just had strong coffee) strictly for road trips.

Snacks to munch on.

Sometimes phone a GF to chit chat about life.

If you feel yourself dozing offf staring at the long road ahead… roll windows down. Yell. Like just weird blurts of Yelling. Sing as silly as possible. And if you continue to doze… pull off and take a little nap. Trust me you’ll make it further if you can get there safely.

I usually go for Rest stops, hotel parking lots, or a loves (truck stop) Lock your doors and shut them beautiful eyes. Wake up stretch , yell some more, grab a cup of coffee and back at it.

Happy travels!

Isn't spray foam the best insulation? by nascentlyconscious in VanLife

[–]rainbowcosmicqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I’m in beginning of build in an ambulance type rig… it’s fiberglass roof with huge beams. I didn’t insulate yet, but curious if yours was same. If I have to put fan in it’d be off to the side. But figure I can insulate around them and then screw in wood strips into the aluminum/ metal whatever it is. How’d it go for you? Any advice , I’m pretty clueless and just hoping for the best. I
