    Let us know what you think of the color. We chose Bering Wave, and used an oil based enamel. Would you have done anything differently?

    Great color choice. Really turned out nice. Maybe consider using the spray on bed liner under the fenders? I used it on a metal battery drawer and it held up nice.

    • @bigfamilyexpedition

      That is a really good idea. I will look into that, thanks for the suggestion 💪.

    With that blue and yellow it reminds me of an Autobot. I can't remember the name of the character though. Now you should start telling your family to "Transform and roll out."

      I used to watch that cartoon a lot as a kid. I'm old now so I can't remember which character it was either lol.

    It's an nice color! The only thing that should be changed is the visors. Because the front doesn't have any visors , there's visors on the rear. I don't think that looks right. But them lights can stay and be reused as Top Break lights and turn signals! It's a good bus 1st Gen ICCE's 2003/2004s are reliable buses!

    • @bigfamilyexpedition
      @bigfamilyexpedition  6 місяців тому

      Thank you! We haven't 100% decided what to do with those back lights yet so I left them up for now. This bus has low miles as well, I think we got a good one.

    What about calling the bus Old Blue? I laughed pretty hard at you throwing the paint on the bus.

    • @bigfamilyexpedition
      @bigfamilyexpedition  6 місяців тому

      It was a lot quicker for me to just throw it on there 😂. We will add Old Blue to our list of names.

    I like the color. Was hoping for a purple. What type of paint did you use? I'd use a cheap car paint for durability but maybe this will last a while.

    • @bigfamilyexpedition
      @bigfamilyexpedition  6 місяців тому

      Purple would have looked good too. We used an oil based enamel paint.

      @@Swerly01 Thanks! If you or someone you know has experience with a sprayer, I'm sure it's a great option. With me having no experience with a sprayer, rolling was the best option, and it turned out really nice.

    Great to see it painted. Nice color as well. I liked the part where you were going to throw the paint at the bus, and like magic it was all done. 🪄 😀. For a name for the bus, why not simply 'Bluey'.

    • @bigfamilyexpedition
      @bigfamilyexpedition  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you! The kids really thought that was a cool trick too! 😁 'Bluey' was the name that first came to my mind when we decided on the color. So it's definitely on the list! The kids like that name too.
