Default car restoration (xr3i)
Recently got myself a little project. I'm wanting to freshen up bits like the anti roll bar, front and rear arms and so on. I've invested in a soda/grit blaster. Just wondering what's the best paint to be used once these bits are cleaned up???? or is it best to get them all powder coated???
