What was this stuff called you used Shaun? looks pretty much what i want (not shiney & not too dry looking)

Not going as far as what some have on here with paint.Its pretty much just the block & maybe the gearbox for me.The rest will be just cleaned up.

Looks a good job that Kieran.

Think its going to be a brush jobbies for me as im not stripping it down that far and so will be a pain in the rear masking everything up.

Oh and im going for black.
