Hi could anyone tell me were i could get the paint from that my s2 chassis is painted in ?
I have come across a ZINGA product MONO-PRIMER used to cure rust on boats,pylons and bridges when it not possible to clean. i will let you know how it works.

I used Smoothrite grey primer and Smoothrite Grey. I used a deruster first on the rusty bits - I've never had satisfactory results with painting over rust.

A slightly different shade of Grey, but then I sprayed it in Dinitrol - Still good 10 years later.

Normally I would have used Bobda Primer, but in this case I didn't as I wanted a thicker and more consistent finish with the original.

I've just looked-up the paint you mention. I have used that or something similar in the past, 96% zinc! It is a sort of paint on version of hot dip galvanising and quite soft. I didn't get on with it very heavy and thick to paint, and ended up adding it 20% to the Bonda Primer.
