Good thread
Here is a few of my saff, underbody restoration finished last summer, working on the engine bay right now.
How it looked.

After many hours with prepping, scraping all the underseal off and painting it looked like this.



All suspension, fuel/brake lines etc. fitted.

Is the stonechip you have all used just the cheap stuff you get from a good motor factors or is it expensive stuff? im just about to stonechip my saff,iv got a few cans of stuff from halfords to use with a compressor but it was cheap,just wondering if it will be good enough.
