an old lady always needs makeup

27. November 2019

When Heidi had her personal playday yesterday why shouldn`t the 47 years old Airstream „Santos“ has it´s treatment?
We decided to fresh up the trim strip a bit with new paint.
For sure in Airstream blue!

A 30 minute drive to Vacaville`s Loewe`s store and quickly mixed up the desired colour.
Also grab some masking tape for covering the outlines of the aluminium strip and 2 hours later we found ourself taping endless meters on the belly of `Santos`.
The „AIRSTREAM“ lettering was the most difficult to cut out because of all these little corners and curves.
But we managed it not too bad ✂️

Once everything was masked the painting started.
And like always, once the painting began the rain started 😂
But fortunately it was just a short shower and the fresh blue wasn`t hit that hard.

When we removed the protection tape we found a great result!
„Santos“ now has a new belly belt in the original blue.Read more
