biliousfrog Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 It's enamel based I believe, it isn't particularly flexible, it's very thick & gloopy & is generally more expensive than a standard acrylic/nitro/poly based paint. I'd personally go for standard car paints, if you're after a satin finish then paint & laquer as usual but don't take the finish to the final buffing stage. Maybe someone has had some success with hammerite but as I recall most posts concerning it are regarding problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToneMonkey Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 I painted my polished-turd-ocaster in blue smooth hammerite. Really couldn't work out if it looked crap or not. It was supposed to look slightly dodgy and did the job well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
