Stone Chip Paint.....

[Graham-P]

Does it only come in black or can you get different colours? Thinking of spraying the body insides red!

Don't forget the main reason for spraying the underside of all the bodywork! Gel/fibre glass lets the light through and without an absorber on the inside you will see colour variations and bush lines from the outside in sun/strong light. Ok if you are going to have a paint job I guess.
Secondary to this is perhaps to offer some protection but more importantly to tidy up the undersides (IMO black is the best for this). When I built mine I used the factory recommended product called Sperex (spelling?) and this would not actually offer any protection from stones etc. so was just to make it look nice.

The company 3M makes a clear anti-stone coating that goes over the paint. Next work day I'll look around and find a part #.

Graham,

Try a company called Morelli's, they have shops Nationwide as well as delivery.

They're Enfield branch can be contacted on 0208-351 5151.

This is where I got my 3M stone chip paint, if they haven't got it in stock I think my extra cans took 3 days.

Over here, there's pick-up truck bedlining companies That spray on a chip guard inside the beds. Some of them can mix the color to match anything, even metalics. It's very popular with the Street Rod guys to spray this material inside the fenders etc. Need special spray applicators, so the shops need to do it.

I had my tanks coated with Line-X spray-on bedliner, and will do the same for the inner fender zones to prevent starring in the fiberglass from stone hits off the tires.
