   A mate of mine is chalkboarding his car. Any ideas where to get the paint in bulk?

   Toolstation do it really cheap like £8 a ltr
   
   orr you can buy it from wilkinsons if you want it TODAY!! lol
   but its £6ish for 500m or £12 for 1ltr
   
   
   1 ltr covers upto 12 square meters - plenty to do a saxo, and 3-4 coats recommended.
   allow it to dry for an hour or 2 between coats, and dont draw on it for a couple of days, allow it to really set in.

   Toolstation was where I got mine from when I did the whole car.
   
   Took two tins of 1.5 litres to coat it heavily...
