Wot Paint??

In the process of stripping Candy naked..

i understand that I need a certain type of primer to cover aluminium, what sort is it?

Best basic paint, what sort and will I need thinners, or would it come pre mixed so to speak.

Never sprayed before so could do with some basic tips......

Etch primmer mate it comes in two parts, or it did when I got some.

Have a look at this guy's site he goes through all the steps for painting a Landy.

get synthetic from paddocks, spray it on a warm day, in a warm garage and it'll stick like glue, make sure you keep the gun moving and dont worry about putting thin coats on, just go over it again once its dry, if you want to see how its done come to north wales mayday bank holiday and i'll show yer

try using a blow torch, that way if there is any oxidisation in the aluminium it will anneal it
