How much Hammerite is needed??

[Stewpotz]

how much hammerite do i need to paint 2 front calipers, 2 rear drums and 16 studs for the car...(not necessarily the studs, just probably will end up getting bored )

also, should i get the spray one or the tin which i need to use a brush for, dont mind really as i will have free time so i can use the brush if it gets a decent finish (seeing as though i can get a 250ml tin for £6 posted and a 400ml can for £12 posted)

cheers

If you used a tin you would only need one, but I would go with 2 spray cans, they dry much faster and alot easier to use. I always used hammerite spray cans, cant praise them enough, I used them to paint my steelies below.

Good luck!

When you sprayed your steels did you sand down before and laquer after the hammerite?

Just gave them a quick sand too get rid of any rough build up, hammerite is direct to rust. Yes, I did give them two coats of laquer after.

Not even a full tin. PMSL.

Have you ever used hammerite brush paint? 1 tin will easily do 2 coats on 4 wheels.
Look at my white steels, they look awfull but that was only one can.
