No worries alan...i should be a litter quicker :clown: I didnt use any brake cleaner, just a wire brush and cloth....came up superb!! I also got the hammered look which as come up wicked!!
True john...the normal jack is s**t and very hard to wind up!! Why dont car makers just chuck a trolley...
2 slow^^^
A wire brush would be better than sandpaper and then wipe it over with a cloth!!
A trolley jack would be good but a normal jack would be fine!!
Bare in mind you need about 4 coats of this hammerite as the smooth is quite thin!!

Looks erm...ok!! Lose the shopping list as said and drop it on its ass...no point 50/60mm... might aswell save the extra, get coilovers and go the full whack!!

I had the answer on the tip of my tongue but couldnt put it into words lol^^^

Hows the baby doing dan?? Ive got a 4month old son...just started teething and having injections and its a nightmare (dont want to spoil the party) but apart from that i love it....
If hammerite did pink i wouldnt put it past myself lol...
Its NOT a write off.... well mine wasnt anyway!! Was in the middle of a shunt.... bumper went, boot damaged, lights broke, echasut snapped, boot floor creased (to the point i couldnt get the spare wheel out), front bumper broke, grill snapped, bonnet bent up, fan broken.... and they repaired it...
Crystal smoked means they're clear plastic smoked (like mk2 ph2 headlights plastic) and smoked is rigid plastic (like the mk2 ph1 headlights plastic) smoked....as far as im aware as i had this when i went to buy some!!!

Yeah i was thinkin gold but then i seen it on the screen and thought a bit too bright and im quite liking copper now....just want some opinions as i value other peoples thoughts!!

....should i paint my calipers??? My cars dark blue and ive opted for hyperblack alloys with a chrome lip!! I'd like something that will kinda stand out and like the hammerite hammered effect!!
But....what colour??? i was thinking gold or copper as silver is too popular.... any other ideas...
I was thinking of him having to have a new bumper...i also thought to myself after typing it...what drugs you on lol!!! If the clips holding the bumper on are broke or bent its a bit more than £100 i think!!

Anyone tried this??? It looks to me as thought you just spray it on and leave it to bead...which i good and means no elbow grease!! It can also be used on tyres to make them shinny!!
My only worry is can it be used on all wheels and does it work??
