there is a cheaper option lol, rattle cans are all rite but u will need loads to get the deep finish.
lets just say homebase/b&q
a gallon of vinyl matt
a few rad gloss rollers
patience n loads of masking or stripping
and low and behold......

ps i did repair every panel and reprime before hand just to ensure the panels were keyed up properly

I know common paint to use is graffiti stuff (check monster colours on the bay) as this stuff is hard wearing, dosent require perfect prep and is quite thick too
