OK' thanks for that. I'll try that way.
As a by the way, if anyone is doing this and wants the 2 colour...
Simply paint the raised section the colour you want. Once it's dry, cover it with lip-balm (or something similar). Now you paint the whole thing the colour you want. Once that's dry, wipe the paint off the raised section. The lip balm stops the paint from sticking. (Not my idea, stolen from elsewhere on this forum  s;) ;) s;) )

The roof is down on my MR2,
And I\'m grinning, grinning ear to ear!

I did try this lip balm trick. I think I put on too many coats though, as it didn't come off properly. Also the edges were not very neat. Might have jut been my technique though.
