paint

Choose shop carefully!!! not all paint brands are created equally. Is it for a touch up or whole respray? i work down at raxworthys they use sikkens paint but i personally like glasurit better... Dave down at Pettigrew autofinish hands road uses glas... He a toyota man also :D

There is a black coloured primer that windscreen guys use... put on b4 urethane. Use this if you scratch paint. stops rust later on. may pay to put a bead on frame and screen 2b on the safe side.
