Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 12-06-2013
Just wondering if anyone has used the hammerite spray paint before? I usually use the normal hammerite but i got a few bits im giving a clean and looking to give it some paint and wondered how gooder job the spray paint makes

It's epic but seriously nasty stuff if you inhale the fumes.
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Jimbo - 12-06-2013
Yeah its good stuff mate my boss sprayed all his suspension bits on his hillman imp
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Mattcheese31 - 12-06-2013
it's good, i sprayed all four of my dispatch wheels with one tin and 3 years on it's still not bad . .
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 12-06-2013
Cheers guys. Now just need to find some at a good price
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Niall - 12-06-2013
Its pricy but i would say its the best widely available spray going! Well worth the extra money
RE: Hammerite spray paint - cully - 13-06-2013

RE: Hammerite spray paint - silverzx - 13-06-2013

Well Cully's gold ones looked good when I saw them, I didn't have that close of a look tbf
RE: Hammerite spray paint - cully - 13-06-2013
hammerite smooth from a spray tin gives a good finish
i only use neat TRF from a pressure washer tank, rinsed with water to clean then with a brush so its quite hard wearing too
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 16-06-2013
Got some cans for £8 each. Will hopefully find out if its any good tomorrow
RE: Hammerite spray paint - cully - 17-06-2013
remember good prep is the key for any paint finish
also i found it easyer to stop runs buy spraying onto warm work surface with warm tins of paint
when i did my wheels i had then under 500w halogen flood lamps so they were warm
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Dum-Dum - 17-06-2013
Awesome stuff. I've painted wheels, engines, brakes and even an exhaust with it and it always sticks.
Top tips are warm cans, warm surface and dont prep it too fine, 800 grit is probably fine.
RE: Hammerite spray paint - cully - 17-06-2013
400ml tin is £7.08 in molevalley but they only have white,black,silver
thats todays price 17/6/13
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 21-06-2013
I have painted a few bits with it now and am pretty please with them.
I got some brake calipers to paint so what do you guys think about using the spray for them? I usally use the normal stuff to do brakes
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Matt - 21-06-2013
Used it on my rocker covers and inlet and done half my engine bay. Looks good but is still fresh so I hope it would hold up!
RE: Hammerite spray paint - daddyfixit - 21-06-2013
prep surface; I sprayed it straight onto a trailer load cover frame I made last summer, just found out that its flaking off after my son has been chaining his bike to it overnight !!
lesson learnt-------scotch pad steel tubing next time !!

Going to paint my slam panel with hammerite tody a few things up.
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 23-06-2013
Im tempted to do my slam panel as well

I was going to paint it anth. But I think it would be to much hassle to sand it all down to paint it properly then when I re attach it you know itll scratch. Where as hammerite it will look tidy still.
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 23-06-2013
Yeah it does cover well. Just got to not spray to much on at a time
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Frosty - 24-06-2013
Some bits i sprayed

I have ordered some more up as some lady garden at work has taken 1 of my cans
RE: Hammerite spray paint - Grant - 24-06-2013
I've used this on my brake callipers. Looks almost like a powder-coat finish. Resists the heat fine, and resist brake dust well too
