Well, if we *ever* get to leave it, I won't need to any more.

Oddly, everyone in charge of this country seems to realise what a stupid
idea it is.


Good quality car paint has never been cheap. And just what do you mean
by enamel?

I recall back in the day (70s) there was pretty much only two choices:
cellulose or 2-pack (a very nasty cyanide based paint made by Parsons).
The best cellulose IMHO was manufactured by Glasurit (you may remember
the tins all came with their parrot logo on the front) and it was only
about a fiver a litre at the time. Very reasonable indeed.

Metallic paints were pretty rare in the '70s. And think you'd find they
cost rather more than a fiver a litre.
