pretty sure crayons and felt tip will work.....



any spray paint will do in what ever colour you want. just prime it well spray colour then lacquar it.
and remember to rub it down well

halfords cans aint to ad tbh and decent price with a trade card, but end the day cans are always going to be shit compared to a spray gun.

you can use a can to paint bonnets etc, but its very hard to get a good finish on such a large flat panel
