Any info would be great...

 

Terry

just give the surface's a good rub down with a wire brush and then brush on a couple of coats of Hammerite in ur chosen colour

spary it on, puttin the brush on is harder work (not much though) lol

i painted mine brush style with couple of coats of hammerite.. the most time taken was getting the loose rust off the calipers and drums, there was quite a lot of there! Looks wkd now though, it's a subtle easy but good looking mod

spraying is easier, i did this to my old escy, but the only prob is you only get enough for 2-3 light coats for each cal/drum, so with a few months of driving stone chips set in and then it soon rusts again, use a tin and brush, its cheaper, you get loads more, and you can do more, thicker coats.

well thats my opinion
