Re: Paint Your Wagon - with a roller!
Been a while since I have ventured into here and it's now 170 odd pages
Had a little bit of bodywork done and was wondering where I can get a Combicolour aerosol in my specific colour (RAL6011) to tart those areas up temporarily until the time comes for another full coat?

Early morning in the late spring. I would say this month but the weather is too unpredictable

Get up early though. You need to start as soon as its light and bearable to paint in. By 10, the creepies will be awake and looking for paint to land on. Mind you, tweezers are handy.
