Hi Charlie, it's good paint. I used it on my 6x6    International Harvester red and International Harvester white for the wheels.

It brushes on quite well, next time I will thin it down and spray it on.     Don't panic, not the GT :)

I'm on about my third or fourth tin now Charlie. What I will say is that it is a slow drying enamel that can take days to harden off in low temperatures and damp conditions. It is good paint with a hard durable finish when it has set but I try to avoid painting at this time of year in my workshop.  Talking to a friend who has years of painting experience with synthetic enamel (which is commonly used for military vehicles) you can use an accelerator with it but I haven't tried this yet.

Thank you for your advise, I won't be painting until the warmer season, say June July time, plus I have somewhere where it's nice and dry it can be stored for a long time to dry and harden
