Sprinter L4H3 Campervan Conversion - Raptorliner costs & 13 tips for good luck
Our last video about the Raptorliner makeover of our formerly ugly green van was received very well and had a lot of views. Thanks very much for the many nice feedback we got from you. The most frequently asked question was how much this make over cost us.
So I will gladly address the cost issue in this video, among other things. I've made a compilation of 13 quick tips when preparing for and using Raptorliner to spray your campervan. It's like a summary of the longer video.

Sprinter L4H3 Campervan Conversion - E20 - Raptorliner Makeover
Переглядів 26 тис.Рік тому
Once upon a time we were the proud owners of what probably was the ugliest green campervan in the world. But now this has changed! In this episode of our van conversion series we are showing how we have repainted the whole van using Raptorliner. Painting is maybe not the right word, as Raptorliner is not strictly paint but bedliner. The RaptorLiner seems to be the best choice to get our ugly gr...

Переглядів 1312 роки тому
In this episode of our van conversion series we are repairing the front bumper in preparation of repainting our campervan using Raptorliner.

Переглядів 3182 роки тому
In this video of our van conversion series we are building extra storage space at the back of our bed. Not a particular big project, but hopefully it gives you some inspiration for your own campervan conversion. As we designed our van, we always planned on optimizing the amount of storage space. After we built our bed we realized there was just enough room left between the back of the bed and t...

In this episode of our van conversion series we are modifying the bike slide in the garage of our campervan. We are storing our mountain bikes inside our campervan using the bike slide. It can be extracted about 70% to easily load and unload the bikes. This bike slide is actually a defining design feature of our van. It determined the type of van we bought and it effected the majority of design...

After converting our campervan for about 8 months, we set off on our first adventure. The last two week, we had to work deep into the night to get the van finished in time for our two week holiday in the Belgian en French Ardennes. It turned out we had some deficiencies in the van. Long story short: This would turn out to be the maiden voyage from hell, where our van broke down just over the Fr...

We nearly broke our front rigid solar panel. We hit a concrete viaduct while backing up the van. What could have been a very expensive accident, turned out to be an educational experience. Of course we want to share our lessons learned. We bent the solar panels back in to shape using brute force, amazingly without breaking the glass. We actually were able to save the panel an reinstall it on th...

What's it like for collecting dirt and cleaning after a year of use?
welke RAL-kleur hebben jullie gekozen?
Really looks great. I think I will do mine 3 colour black dark green and lighter green .
That was a big job.
Hi. I am che king also the design, cause i really Need and information. I am try to draw a layout with bed suspended above the dinner area. But i saw that the roof of the Sprinter It goes narrower as long you go up to the roof. How much Is large in the Highest part internally? If i mantain a 160/140cm bed large, can i put It quite up to have 192cm of height?
Please, could you tell me how many bottles or Raptor are needed fot a van like yours?
Excellent job! You have given me the confidence to try this myself. The finish you achieved is remarkable. Thanks :)
Wow, thank you!
VW crafter and MAN van panels are Galvanised before they are painted at the factory. Mercedes is not. Its why you always see rust bucket mercs.
Woooo! What a project!!!!😮
Leik verslag! Nu denk ik dat ik het ook kan 🙂 En heel goed gelukt! Wat een enorme bus trouwens.
Denk Pipi Langkous.... "Ik heb het nog nooit gedaan, dus ik denk dat ik het wel kan"
Thank You, Im a GIS person, who works on maps, always wanted to learn this animation, recently started using shotcut, so came here, will try this out
Good job!!!! I wonder why they have not come up with a solution to the pump noise🤦♂️🤷♂️.
Hey merci voor alle filmpjes. Ik ben van plan om ook fietsen vanachter te steken. Een vraagje ivm het afsluit deksel. Hebben hier ondertussen al lekken gehad?
Geen lekkages meer gehad, gelukkig.
Hoi Mijn sprinter is de zelfde hoeveel liter Raptor liter moet ik koopen en hoe krijg ik hem op deze kleur Groetjes
Check onze andere video. Daar vertel ik het. Link: ua-cam.com/video/rxr636XiJSw/v-deo.htmlsi=ETwpVbviFdsFi0q8&t=787
How many tins or raptor did it take please
I actually mention this in the video: ua-cam.com/video/rxr636XiJSw/v-deo.htmlsi=ETwpVbviFdsFi0q8&t=787
You should have used WD40 that would remove it fast.
Thank you for the video! Idea of use Excel = genius! 🎉
So glad you were ok after the heart attack!
Thanks man. Still trying to do better healthwise. Feeling much better
Looks like a great job, but I feel sorry for the Mrs get her a grinder with the flat disc sanding pad it would take no time at all to get the paint and rust down.
Excellent job..👍👍
Thanks 👍
How much did the materials cost you?
Check out our other video in which we address this topic! ua-cam.com/video/p3OVzPWdepo/v-deo.html
Ik zag je vandaag rijden bij Gennep. Mooie bus. 🎉🎉
Wat toevallig! Leuk. We waren even bij Bikepark Mook om een paar rondjes te mountainbiken. Leuk daar!
Great video very informative and really helpful thank you
Thanks very much!
Very entertaining :) Did you get a better bike?
Yes I did :-) I am on my third new bike in 2023 :-)
Great. You did it without using the Glaxnimate built into Shotcut.
Do you have a full van tour, or instagram page to see a quick glance at the interior?
Not yet, we wanted to wait with a van tour until it was completely finished. But it still isn't after 3 years :-) We plan to do one soon.
Thank you for the tutorial mate! I liked it.
Leuke info film. Hoop werk geweest. Maar mooi resultaat ondanks de lelijke kleur 😉 Super xls sheet. Zo luxe is die van mijn kosten nog niet.
De kleur is zo lelijk dat ie weer mooi wordt
Bedankt voor deze video. Wat ik nog het apartste vind. Is dat je dit buiten staat te doen met een kleine bouwmarkt compressor. Anyway. Als het resultaat maar goed is. De tip van de lakhandel is natuurlijk goud. Zo heb je in ieder geval in elke fles de juiste hoeveelheid kleur. Thanx 4 the inspiration!
Tja soms moet je roeien met de riemen die je hebt. Dit was wat we hadden. Als iets niet kan zoals het moet, dan moet het zoals het kan :-)
Mooi hoor 👍
Great job !!!
Jammer dat de ondertiteling niet werkt. Technische Engels is nogal een opgave. Verder top video.
Thank you for creating such a thorough report! I appreciate all your explanation as you go as well. Enjoy the new look!
I love it. Exactly yhe colour scheme I want for mine but there's two things stopping me, skills and money.🤣
Working on a next video in which I will work out how much money we spent. It was as much as you might think!
You should be proud; you did a great job and the video is very thorough. I really appreciate videos that are full of info and helpful advice. Thanks much!!
It's so cool to receive such a nice comment. It took me about 5 months to make this video in between my full time job and family life. Wading through so many hours of footage. Finishing the video sometimes felt like a weight around my neck. So thank you very much. Really appreciated.
Great! Thank you for this tip!
Hallo! Heel interessante video! Ik ga binnenkort ook een diesel heater (laten) installeren, in dit geval een Autoterm maar ik denk dat dit hetzelfde model is als de Planar. Kleine vraag: op de website van Autoterm zie ik dat er een ingebouwde zekering van 25A in de meegeleverde kabel zit. Hoe heb jij deze kabel aangesloten op het systeem? Gewoon op een 12V zekeringpaneel met een extra zekering of rechtstreeks op de bus bar?
Ik heb het rechtstreeks op de busbar gezet en niet nog een tweede zekering er tussen gezet
Je hebt de pomp buiten geplaatst zie ik. Is deze tegen water en weersinvloeden bestand?
Ja zeker. Wij hebben nog nergens last van gehad, ook tijdens vrieskou fungeert de pomp prima
nice. useful space for plenty of small stuff
Great video, what’s the dimensions of the bike tray?
Thanks. I am not sure about the exact dimensions. It's about 160 x 50 cm. It just fits a 26" MTB frame lengthwise. On our website you can get a few extra photo's of the build. I pretty much followed the length and width of my bikes to make them fit in de slide. www.3fdesign.nl/vanconversion/MHE_campervan_conversion_bikeslide.html
Zo mooi gemaakt. Bedankt voor de uitleg. Dat ga ik ook proberen voor mijn volgende reis. Bedankt voor de video.
Dank je wel. Veel succes!
What camera did you use, i bought one thats fits in the original. But i dont have one aswell. But for the original you have to saw out a whole slot for it to fit
Or is that why the styrofome is in between?
We used a cheap chinese one. No brand.
@@lolbroek44 Yes. There was no hole at all on our van. So we drilled a hole for the cables. The styrofome we made to fit the break light in.
great job...very professional
that's a lot of job.. :))
Even without the go pro footage, still an amusing video to watch. So sorry about your travel issues. Hope they get sorted and you can get back on the road with a fully functioning vehicle and enjoy more of the good stuff!
Thanks! It was quite a project. Been working on the video for 2 months in between all the other dayjob business :-)
Such a shame but on the bright side, there's not much more that could go wrong the next time you go out in it! I hope the repairs aren't expensive.
I hope you'll get well soon and enjoy life. All the best from Romania! 🙏
Spoedig herstel
Sterkte! Hopelijk kom je er snel bovenop.
