Zander,
Like Marky-San says; I used hammerite on my old wagon...and did 36K with no probs at all. Only a couple of quid for a small tin. I used blue and then silver for the "Subaru" bit, worked well on a blue car.

a few of my old mini mates used to use engine paint rather than caliper paint. It's basically the same stuff (according to them), but 'cos no bugger buys engine paint it's dirt cheap.
