I heard from Jeff and Jem on the subject already but has anyone else actually used it?
Has anyone painted a car after using it?

Here's a good quote from H.A.M.B.
"Bananarama! won't stick to it and you can paint over it. simple as that...good stuff!"

Bear metal it
Go over the whole car with thinners
let dry
spray the whole with a GUN not cans ( cheap gun is ok 15 quid)
in 2k primmer best you can buy
do a few coats
leave in primmer till you have the $$$$$$$$$

Cheers, I'll bear it in mind.
I'm loving the brushed steel look so far.
I'll post pics once I've done a bit more, it's slow going with a clean'n'strip wheel in a drill but it's a great effect

I know nothing about the GIBBS stuff, but, there appears to be some element of doubt as to whether you can paint over it successfully or not??
If there is some doubt I would stay clear and go the primer / matt black route, least you know that you can take that off anytime for a pukka job without any side affects …
