recomend me a 'rock hard' paint

[gaz_moose]

i need to paint the inside of my track car.i was all set on spraying it with hammerite but whilst looking around found out that its not much good.the current paint would be 2pak but its pretty worn and battered from carrying wheels etc..and it looks a mess.
i was thinking that some of you guy are into 4x4 and plant machinery etc.. could recomend me some decent hard wearing paint.i painted most of the underpinnnings in hammerite when i got it all sandblasted last year and most of that is rusty now.
i dont mind if its brush or spray on.

cheers gaz.

Machinery enamel, ask for a VQD (very quick drying), Tractol, rustoleum etc, do them, any decent paint factor or engineers merchants will keep them.

POR15 is good, and I have recently heared of another product developed by some ex-por15 employees who claim to have made a better version.

I heard of some polyurethane paint a while ago... cant remember what its called, but apparently its marketed as "chip-proof" or "stone-proof".

People do their chassis with it and apparently it never comes off, but I think it "dents". ie if you hit it with a hammer, or scratch it you will see a depression in the paint that will gradually heal itself (to some extent).

Probably not what youre after tho.

What about an epoxy-based paint?

Truck liner paint? aka bed liner paint/coating, for areas getting stuff chucked around i.e. boot floors.
If it was mine the rest would be 2k, over 2k epoxy primer, think you'd have to get rid of the hammerite first though.

I will be using raptor liner made by upol its a truck bed liner made in the states but ive got my upol merchant to get it, for use in the back and underneath of trucks, they do a tintable version so matches the original colour, scratch resistant etc one of the lads on lanciaforum has used it on his grale with good results Ant!
