Mim Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 Can anyone recomend a suitable black paint for tidying up the odd scratch and chip mark on the engine bay chassis area and front suspension mounts?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Sewell Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 I just use Hammerite (or Smoothrite if I can get it). It is not perfect but it covers the metal and prevents rust... Low tech luddite - xflow and proud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mim Posted February 20, 2002 Author Share Posted February 20, 2002 I assume you can get it in a matt or satin finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Howe Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 Comes in Smooth or Hammered finish, in 400ml aerosols or tins from 250ml - 5 litres. JH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I reply to every thread Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 POR 15 is good stuff. Sticks to metal like S**t to a blanket. Get it from Frosts. I used it on the suspension parts of my Midget 8 years ago and it's still all there. Gets you in with the ladys as well" (another(Long) story) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisd Posted February 21, 2002 Share Posted February 21, 2002 back to original thread - I've used Hammerite black paint to touch up (ooo-er) the chassis. Use Satin finish rather than gloss - and brush it on. After a week or so on the road, it is hard to spot the new paint. smile.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
