I thought £37.50 was a tad dear for a small pot of paint. !!! |

Just ordered mine as well, and I notice the price of that particular colour is more expensive that some of the others wonder why!!! |

MMMM mine arrived and with a small brush applied the paint in naked areas. Didnt look bad but i never was a Blue Peter sort of person. A day later and the acylic has reacted with the none acrylic. So i am now stripping the whole thing,then rubbibg down then aerosol primer,then re spray with a decent sort of paint (that i havent sourced yet). If you are thinking of buying i would say think again. !!! |

Thats weird, I’ve used it on a few other chips as well as the cup holder ones and its been perfect, just out of interest have you ever used a silicone based dashboard shine as silicon can have a terrible effect on this paint!! |

I've not done mine yet (still searching for brush) but sounds like a good clean with Meths or similar is in order before painting. |

As far as i am aware Algt2 no silicone cleaning product has been used in my car, hindsight being a wonderful teacher i should have given it a thorough cleaning with a spirit based cleaner, i have now sanded the the entire thing and am now going to discover the problems that painting plastic produces. |
