Dont use Hammerite! Its awful stuff and not nearly as good as it used to be, use anything by Genolite, primer, top coat etc. If you want a nice dark green laquer finish use JAPLAQ, really high gloss finish and gloopy.

I use 2 coats of davits zinc 182 primer & 1 thick coat ( or 2 thinner coats ) of black underseal, the waxoil stuff aint to bad if you leave the lid off & let it thicken up, but as it goes it is thin now, if it is the sill area which you can see I would prime it & spray it body colour, Steve.

You can waxoyl afterwards if you want to.
