Dont paint your chassis on a sunny day!

Why Not ?


I started the job dress only in shorts and after an hour in the shower I am still covered in Hammerite.

Think of the money you will save on sun beds or sun lotions. Did you go for the plain black or a more interesting effect!!!

Keep scrubbing it will come off just before the skin does.

Waxoyl isn't so bad, you just bathe in paraffin for a couple of days.

You can get thinners for hammerite but it may result in skin cancer!

paraffic also works on hammerite.

then you use petrol to get the paraffin off

then a shower

by that time your skin is so dry that you look like yoda "A very clean chassis have I, and much redness"

I got POR-15 in my hair and over my body. The Mrs had to cut the stuff out when she got back. I spent so long painting that it had set like superglue. Thinners would not get it off, I still have a mark on my arm 9 days later Not to mention a huge bald patch, I think it will come off with my skin.

Glasses and gas mask saved me from looking like a panda with a bad David Beckham hair cut.
