undercoat too.Powdercoating isn't an option yet as i'm taking delivery soon and just want to get out in it!!!!!!
Cheers in advance

Always had good results with red oxide primer (Halfords stuff works fine) then a few coats of Plastikote paint. Dries nice and hard and resist chips
well. Easy to touch up as well if it does chip.

I just used heavy duty metal paint from b and q. Worked fine for me.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

By the time you prep it all and take into account rubbing down and drying time your local powder coaters (if booked in) should be able to turn the
arms around in a couple of days. Or do you intend doing them in situ?

In situ for now.I've just got the car so want to get out and drive it.Maybe over the winter get the bits done properly.
