Thank you!!
Cost of decent materials will be a lot to do a decent job though, as
you’ll have to buy a lot more than you need to use for such a small
project.That was my concern, I was just wondering if it was easy to find companies that supply primer and lacquer in small quantity, modelling size kinda tubs.

Depends how good of a finish you want to achieve!
Sand it/get it blasted > etch primer > 2k primer > sand > base coat(s) > 2k lacquer > wet sand > more 2k lacquer > wet sand > flow coat 2k lacquer > flat and polish if you can be bothered. (Other painters will have differing process I’m sure).

Any 2k product is proper nasty shit, so proper respirator and extraction is highly recommended.
I’m shit at giving advice im afraid though, as I highly doubt the way I do things is what would be considered the ‘correct’ way by a lot of other painters. I’m sure @privatepatterson would be happy to provide a some more in depth advice!
