No carry on, as the stuff I use is industrial and is not kind to skin,especially on youngsters, also if your doing it outside then definately not advisable

Start with an 80 grit to knock it back and do one section at a time. if you tackle it all its gets a bit depressing

. Try and get on freindly terms with your local motor factors as they tend to be alot cheaper than Halfrauds.
