Arch roller and a heat gun to soften the paint, helps to stop it cracking and flaking.

I've just rolled mine. The wheels cracked the paint but what was left I used a heat gun on.

As above, use your sisters hair dryer to heat and soften the paint and work slowly a little at a time.
Chances are on a 12-22 year old 306 your gonna crack the paint and if you do flake off anything thats not sticking anymore and hammerite it.
