I guess it's not a standard halfords item any links to buy online would be great. **************###************** Darren...

Group: G4 Club Member Posts: 140, Visits: 1K	I have a couple of bubbles in the paintwork low down and one of them has been knocked off to expose alluminium. What's the best thing to treat it with for now. I am looking to refresh the paintwork at some point but wondering what is the best advice to treat it now. Also some of the rivet heads have black marks streaming from them which polish off but come back and a couple have paint flaking off. I have an orange touch up kit but don't know if this should be painted string on or should it be prepared with somthing. Cheers for any advice on this. **************###************** Darren...
