JonSam50 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Can anyone recommend a decent filler they have used before? And a good hard paint? Ill be going for gloss black, I know halfords have an alloy wheel paint and lacquer range. I have 6 days off coming up and want to refurb my alloys patiently and properly Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guynecologist Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Haven't had reason to use it myself but my mate who is spending A LOT money of building a 1956 Ford F100 hotrod uses this Plastic Padding Ultima for when he wants a really good top surface to apply paint too http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_194039_langId_-1_categoryId_165625 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
