(nobodys gona see/tell its there)

 

 

the bits where i have cut with the grinder i think il put hammerite on.

 

only come in black does it?

 

 

you can buy hammerite in any colour, if grinding back to bare metal i would use some sort of primer first before painting to stop the rust re occuring or use a tin of underseal.

You can get any colour, they do the basics then you need to mix to get another, white is a normal one also for £6:)
