I nearly called the thread ‘Question for Land Rover owners’..
Rather than try to fix the dodgy paintjob where I tried to fix the big stone chips on my bonnet, I bought a new bonnet for £50. This one though has some rust underneath. The actual rust is very light, but the paint has bubbled. So, given that it’s not in a visible area:
1) Paint as usual with VW spray paint just not worrying about the finish. Is the clear coat necessary for protection or just cosmetic?
2) Buy cheaper Halfords grey spray and keep the more expensive but better matched VW colour (that I already have) for any visible parts.
3) Use Hammerite on the rust then a thin layer of grey on top? Does Hammerite actually prevent rust better than normal paint?
