Thinking of getting the spray paint out...
Heatshield – am I right in thinking that it needs acid etch primer before the hi-temp paint?
Plastics – fuse box covers/rocker cover? What kind of primer/undercoat here? Again I'll use the hi-temp paint. Will plastic primer (the marker pen stuff) be heat resistent enough?

Didn't use any form of primer on heat-shield just used the old Halfrauds heat resistant spray. Of course I did get the wife to do the obligatory rubbing down with sandpaper s:lol: :lol: s:lol: [she doesn't like steel wool]
I didn't use primer either but used the black barbecue spray paint from Halfords for the higher temp s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
Ok. And the plastics?
halfords plastic primer

does any one know if you can get heat resitant paint made up in the colour of the car or is it always black?

You can - Coley did some for a GB last year, look up your local automotive paint specialist and ask.
