Hammerite underbody seal with waxoyl

[nova dar]

Well lads I have all four inner arches on my nova painted with brush on blue hammerite smooth but now I want to have them black so I baught a tin of the hammerite underseal and I want to brush that on the arches. My problems ar

1. Can u paint that stuff over hammerite smooth
2. I know it doesn't compleatly dry but can u still clean dirt and stuff off it
3. Is hammerite even ok to uses on inner arches thanks

Ive used hammerite on my arches its fine as it dries hard and shiny. Ive also used the hammerite underseal thing is its hard to clean stuff off as it stays tacky. Why not just paint over the blue with black hammerite?

It's just I was told it cracks when the car flexes and will flake off is that right was yours fine

I ve never had probs with it cracking. Just made sure arches were cleaned up i put primer on painted hammerite red smooth. Been like that for years.

I painted my suspension springs with hammerite and they are fine.

Like mine weren't bad at all I just wire brushed all inner arches and brushed it on will it still stick good
and will a power washer blow it off

I painted mine on my mk1 astra with under seal and then silver Hammerite. No problems.

Tersal is the best for painting over as gos Rock hard , others stay soft or wet

The Hammerite I've done has hardened.

If it's hardened it won't have been the one with waxoil in.

The wax oil one is crap. It cant be painted over. As it never dries out it makes working on the car a right messy job as the stuff just gets all over you. Getting it out of your hair isn't much fun. Do the job properly instead with proper rubber spray or stone chip stuff and a nice few layers of paint on top which can be easily washed clean.
