Don't forget that according to EEC regulation, you can still use solvent based paints such as cellulose for for classic car restoration, you don't have to use two pack or waterbornes.

Though two pack is best under there John, for durability reasons.

That looks real nice Ivor.
Thanks for the advice on paint-good ol cellulose!
Tried some yellow I bought from halfrauds
And looks good-

I did mine 20 years ago and although its got a good few chips and scratches on it, still makes a clean and easy environment to work on :)
