• Planning to respray my old mountain bike frame so if anyone has left over stuff or anything let me know.

    Still reading up on everything but is going to be my winter project to turn the spare room into a makeshift spray room and then spray, rebuild and upgrade/modify a bike.

    Yep, lethal solvents, DON'T DO IT!
    tbh, it's cheaper to get a good powder coat, there's a company in Brum that'll do a frame for about £40. If you DIY:
    Paint stripper and gloves £15
    Thinners ( to clean frame ) £10
    Pack of assorted wet and dry ( you'll need 400, 800 and 1200 ) £10
    Can of primer £5
    2 cans colour £16
    Can clear £6

    approx prices, plus the lining of your lungs if you don't work with a mask and extractor!
