Halfords stuff I think is crap.

Pug stuff is really good, but tiny cans and expensive.

What are people's opinions. Will be used on interior bits and pieces.

lol i use cheap stuff from the range spot on imo

I usually find clear is best.

Halfords sell some along side there wheel refurb paint which is miles better than their standard stuff.

I have used halfords Laquer loads of times and had no probs even found it to be better than the branded stuff tbh I done my sp's about 4 years ago and they are still sweet

Just a point...lacquer should be applied in a warm environment. I know all paint should but t makes more of a difference with lacquer.
I've never had a problem with the cheap halfords stuff but I find the wheel stuff better.

Boggo halfords stuff is fine IMO but I now tend to use Glasurit or genrock 2K stuff through a gun unless its only little bits Wink

The halfords stuff is fine mark, you just to put it on reasonably thick, each coat has to have a shine.

It does the job fine, you just have too put enough on for it to level properly and not so much that it runs which is a bit of a fine balancing act in my experience, lol

mark use express paints by where i work, just make sure you do it in a warm place otherwise it will go shit, cold makes it go white.
