Thinking of painting the inner arches with red Hammerite, sean painted his red corsa with it iirc and it was a pretty good match to flame red, Ben says the alfa red looks alot like polished flame red.. think ill buy a small pot and check the colour match.









Looks good enough to me, bit more hard wearing than paint to I suppose also easier to touch up and it might help full the cracks in my stonechip
