so ive been thinking about a few ideas ... im not going to bother too much about getting big dents out just remove minor things and then spray it

so here's my idea for the colour

2014 metallic red renault clio


pro's it will look pretty damn good

cons i might actully have to polish it

If you are going down the expensive paint route you may as well spend a little more time on the prep and fix all the dents! Mine is having a cheapo paint job but I'm getting the body straight first.

go for a solid colour with a ceramic binder it is a lot more hard wearing used on buses n trucks

£25 on a tin of Hammerite and a pack of 4" foam rollers. Job done!

It's only gonna get trashed if you drive it properly anyway.

haha true . . . was thinking of painting it properly as i should be able to do it at cost as i work with a body shop
