My preferred paint is KBS COATINGS Rust Seal properly applied........very strong and flexible......and yes it does take a hammer blow without marking as I have demonstrated at Riley/Scimitar club noggin nights. 100% waterproof.
My intension will be to also put on a coat of U-POL HS Gravitex Plus stone chip protector. It can be sprayed on to give a good smooth finish.........but I have only so far used it on the fibreglass front bumper of my Scimitar. (no Austins on road at moment but Nippy undergoing very full rebuild)
Unfortunately KBS is currently very difficult to get in UK, though previous supplier may now be starting again, so I am sometimes having to resort to the original invention - POR15 rust seal (there is a document somewhere from a non KBS company man detailing the KBS development saying why KBS is now so much better........can forward a copy if required).
DRUMS....there will be no drums.....the better we can protect our babies the more they will last and the less work we will have to do, leaving more time to enjoy them.
