use regualar stone chip, that what i used. if ur stripping the underside down its really important that u do get any rust down to shiny metal. alot of guys restore shells and they spray over rust. its looks fine for a year or 2 then it just comes through again.

Simon, have a look at mastic 121, bloody brilliant stuff, i used on my wagon chassis, which was rusting really badly around the rivets, and brackets, it has been on the truck for aroud two months now, and not a trace of rust anywhere i have used it.

Have a look at there website http://www.rust.co.uk/home.cfm
