ive used pj1 on the top half of my 125lc engine and 2 pack car paint on the bottom end. to make sure the pj1 adheres properly to your barrels paint strip any old paint off first,give it a good key up with a corse scotch brite and make surs its 100% free from oil,grease and dirt.
hope this helps simon.

Hi chris . Its the same paint as in B&Q. I was told about it from a bloke of this forum and have never looked back. Its just so bloody hard to get heat paint in a satin finish isn't it
