Apart from the fact its hammerite anybody tried using one of their new metalmasters to paint a chassis yet ?

Looks pretty cool
hmm like the look of that, I have a few trailers to build 
actually just looked at the video and it looks brilliant 
, I use hammerite a lot these days and the normal spray is very wasteful and gets
everywhere but gives the best finish as brushed on smoothrite always has the brush marks left. Oh I can see me getting that at the weekend

Just looked it up on b&q's site gun is £40 and paint £15 a pop may be worth giving it a go!
wow...if it works as advertised I really like that!
Normal spray cans waste so much paint.....
I wonder how hard it is to clean the thing once you are done painting everything under the sun!
did anyone else notice they missed a bit behind the finial at the end of the video?
seems like an interesting concept, yet not quite as good as they make out.

Question is how much coverage does that £15 worth of paint give? if it paints half a chassis, well worth it, if it's gonna take half a dozen cans then not such a bargain.
it looks good.
I did the full MK chassis using 4 tins of standard smootherite so If you use that as a guide. standard cans are 400ml at £9 each now (£36) the new cans on B&Q give 2 sizes 750ml & 360ml both £15 if i use the smaller and allow for less overspray say 4 cans again gives £60 if u include the gun at £40 gives total value of £100 and you still get to use the gun again etc still got to be good value (Im trying to convince myself here arent I!!)
