well you see - the hot pink was like a compromise, I wanted pink but that was the only one I could find online
but a baby pink would make me pretty much the happiest person on the planet

you guys reckon I could use regular paint without it bubbling or cracking?


What are you planing on painting firstly ?

Some parts could be done provided they are not exposed to excessive heat. If the parts / area being painted are exposed to heat then one possibility would be to look at using a standard paint with a clear of the VHT, providing its available over the top, its a long shot but is a possibility.

With any painting the key to a good finish is a dam good foundation to start with, so preparation is key & in my books no corner should be cut when this is done.

you'll be fine with "standard" type paints....but the end result will only be as good as your prep
