    Ordinary Cellulose Car spray paint.... and a brush to do the letters (they were impossible to mask off)

    Time will tell if it blisters or catches fire .

    Looks all white ...

    Said in my best Barrymore voice.

    Looks good actually. Not sure I would do the same though, I like the red as it breaks up the colour a bit.

    Very nice!

    Top job
