sand the s**t out of it till all the flaking clear is off
then take your paint code into a spraypainting shop (paint code is on the id plate in the engine bay) and get them to fill a few spray cans up with your colour then prep the surface, spray the colour, spray with clear, then after a few days rub back with 2000grit wet and dry, then a good cut n polish its not worth paying someone to do it, as im sure you dont want to spend more than what the car is worth for professional paint |

Thanks for the tip.
Yeah I'm going to do it myself and give it a go. How many coats of paint you reckon, 4 litres of 2K shold do the trick. I got use of an air compressor and have spray gun. What is a good cut n polish to use? Cheers |
