I used these to do my bumper which was silver, grill which was pink, shirt which was red, under light trim that was black and morrettes that were blue. I had a right old patchwork car, but those rattle cans sorted it our for now. Remember there only 150ml so don't go far.

I'm getting my 5 fully painted, but not the bay like yourself. I think with some good prep and weather I could do my whole engine bay pretty good with them cans. I'm getting good at it. :P

i can't remember if i did, as its just temp i think i might have left it with just the grey on..

you will need to do a few coats of the grey and then rub it down with fine wet and dry 1200 or 800 before giving it some laquer...

i didn't use primer, just wet and dried what was already there. if i was after a better finish i would have, easier to get a good finish and see imperfections in primer and correct them..

i really would try get larger cans than those 150's, looking at one again the other day, it would take cans and cans to cover a decent area with a few coats of paint.. have some made..
