    Im waiting on a omp half cage, am wanting to spray black before fitting.
    Which is the best to paint doing it myself. Would hammerite spray can be the best do you think?

    hammerite might be abit thick. just rub the cage down prime it using acid 8 2k primer. then halfords spray cans should be good enough

    With frame work i would always get it powdercoated. Its a real pain in the arse with a spray gun
