Yup ... but seeing as our flat is in town, we don't have a garden or garage or anything for prep / spray work where I could leave things to dry safely.
So it was done in the front room on the coffee table with plenty of newspaper and everything covered in blankets - got what a mess spraying in an enclosed area can make !!
I got a beating for it as you can guess, but considering the finish it was more than worth it

Masking off the bottom of the grill was the hardest bit though :-[
