Fully Painted Cars | Construction Companies' Work Vehicles

2019/07/10

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Today's post has absolutely nothing to do with slopes, lol.

But I was so moved by this work that I just had to share it!

What do you think of this car?

A full repaint of a Kei car!

Iwakura Kojima Motors

Isn't this cool? lol

Iwakura Kojima Motors

This is all hand-painted!!!

You can't tell just by looking at it, can you?

Now, let's take a closer look at the details!

Iwakura Kojima Motors

I heard they bought a stencil and painted it by hand.

Apparently, he found this online and cut it out himself!

Overall, the quality is amazing.

All hand-painted.

I really love this flavor lol

Iwakura Kojima Motors

Since it was painted with a brush, this is how it turned out.

You can see the brush strokes.

I hear it looks even better with a roller, but I really like the finish you get with a brush.

If you're a few meters away, there's absolutely no way you'd know!

I heard they applied it three times.

 

From a distance, it looks pretty cool in its Setagaya Base style, lol.

Apparently, this kind of paint is actually sold—it’s irresistible for fans, isn’t it!

I thought, “My machine is the same…” but I’ll hold off on saying that lol

Takara Paints

 

Please take a look at this site.

It's amazing. If you're a car enthusiast and love DIY, I think you'll definitely want to give this a try.

 

The inside is white lol

Iwakura Kojima Motors

I can't go all the way, can I? lol

One such car dealership run by car enthusiasts is Kojima Motors in Iwakura.

It's kind of exciting to see the real thing, isn't it?

 

See you later.

Hello, everyone. I’m Enta. I’ve been driving for about three hours, thinking to myself, “Isn’t the distance we slope workers travel just crazy?” so I figured I’d write about it lol. Our sense of distance is out of sync with the rest of the world. Generally speaking, a one-hour commute by car…

Why Do Cracks Form in Mortar? | Examining the Causes of Cracks in Formwork and Sprayed Mortar from the Perspectives of Mix Design and Curing

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I came across a job site where there were fine cracks in the joints of the retaining wall. A layperson who was with me (not a slope contractor) asked, “Is this okay?” I explained the reasons on the spot, but later I thought, “If I summarize this on my blog, people will understand…”

Hello, this is Director Jou. I provide on-site support for civil engineering projects in Hyogo while sharing content on YouTube about the use of ICT at construction sites. This time, rather than discussing construction methods or equipment, this is more of a record of my desperate attempts. There was something I really wanted on site, but I couldn’t find it anywhere…

The Correct Way to Install Formwork Is Level (Horizontal) | Why Aligning It with the Road Grade Will Make Reinforcement Installation a Nightmare

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. When I’m driving on the highway, I can’t help but keep looking at the road embankments—it’s an occupational hazard, isn’t it? lol The other day, while I was on the road, I saw a retaining wall that sloped diagonally to match the road’s gradient. Just as I thought, “Oh, that’s to match the gradient,” I also wondered, “What if there were rebar installers working on this…”

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Young engineers often ask me, “Is set loss really necessary?” Come to think of it, even though the term “set loss” is thrown around all the time on job sites, there are actually a lot of people who’ve never had it properly explained to them. Back in the day, when I was installing ground anchors…
