Mick,

Do you have a local 'Panel Shop' up by you?

The one in Weston knocked me up an aerosol for just under a tenner, and can also supply cellulose, 2-pack and water based paint by the half litre (if you have your own spray facilities).

They work from the paint code, but can match existing paint as well (perhaps a good thing, as most of my panels have faded to differing shades of calypso pink!)

If you've not got anything local (try 'Paint Factors' in the yellow pages), i can get you some and post it up to you.

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

By putting paint+factors+doncaster into the search engine, it gives you a fair few local options (I don't know which ones are particulary local, but hopefully you will!)

TRY HERE
