Title: What paint for a stem re-spray? Post by: Dusty on May 11, 2020, 10:34:18 PM Evening all. My Safari upper shaft wasn't looking great so I got busy with the paint stripper.
Was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on what primer/paint to use for the re-spray? Cheers. Stay safe... Title: Re: What paint for a stem re-spray? Post by: Val Beechey on May 12, 2020, 12:21:58 AM Hi Dusty. Don’t take my ward for this without checking but what about car sprat paint.?

That did cross my mind Val but wanted to put it out there just in case there was a specific type of paint available, hard wearing and all. Title: Re: What paint for a stem re-spray?

Good luck with it. Title: Re: What paint for a stem re-spray? Post by: brickie58 on May 19, 2020, 01:07:35 PM Used car paint a few times works fine
