Don’t get me wrong green hammerite is a great paint and really protective but I think you have to be pretty good painter to get a good finish and unfortunately I am not the greatest at using this paint. When you see a good job made and then reined by a bad paint job that is me with hammerite. I am sure there must be a technique to using it and it is a pain to have to buy their thinners as the paint and thinner is very expensive in my opinion. I even struggle with smooth hammerite
