Glad you guys like it. Now as far as the paint it's
just regular old rustolium or tremclad in canada.
And the flares, well just use a BFH {big fukin hammer}

[Bean]

hmm the don't sell that stuff round here - closest reseller would be in italy... afaik it's some sort of acrylic paint with enamel in it (like Revell paint for modelcars) - do you have any more specific info about the type of paint? I know feck all about paints but if I'm goint to ask in a specialist shop I'll need to know what to ask for before they sell me some uber expensive shit I don't need

[The Doctor]

afaik (after reading the mopar topic) it's just a kinda paint you use on gardenfences etc. etc.
In the Netherlands it's called: Hamerite

WTF!

You mean that stuff you buy in any DIY mall around the corner?

So it seems...

Shame though that hammerite doesn't come in to many colors (well the funky broken looking version does, not the glossy finish one).

Rustoleum, I believe Robokills dad sells that stuff...

Seriously thinking of doing the Volvo this way... Would save alot of trouble... just need the room to work, my regular place won't do because I'll need to work on the car a few days in a row..

Yeah banpei you get it, but there is alot of type or model. I already seen this work on club4ag last year and gone to "Praxis" look for this things and asked to some friends and they explained to me.... yeah you can get them by gamma or praxis or any DIY mall I am sure

[Bean]

according to the rostoleum homepage you should get it in NL http://www.ro-m.com/asp/openscherm.asp?taal=ne

all this paint choices are a bit above me
I guess ths is what comes closest to the tremclad paint
http://www.ro-m.com/asp/upload/beheer/pd...300-GB.pdf
or rather that? http://www.ro-m.com/asp/upload/beheer/pd...900-GB.pdf

any help appreciated

That rustoleum combicolor looks like an interesting choice. Sure comes in alot more colors then hammerite.

Reading the fact sheet I think that would do nicely.

The other fact sheet you send is from a 2 component paint. Usually 2 component paints are stronger and more durable.

well I'll find out one day, need to get an arch roller first anyway, which is rather expensive round here... and I can't get that makeanyway but hopefuly something similar
