Somewhere in the UK, someone said "barbeque" :(
'On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.' - Charles Babbage

1 can prob not, however there is a site selling solvent based car paint by the 500ml, it would be illegal to use on my lude (unless its a classic or vintage car) but who says im going too ;) what ever i have left i could forward onto you if you have a way of spraying it. :twisted:

Do you not buff wet? You should really...i usually polish my repairs in the rain if it rains of soaked with my spray with G3. Makes it really lubricatedand i can polish it for ages without burning though. Gets the lacquer like glass.
