I've always wanted to repaint the rear side of the rear seat,The Black metal part that faces into the boot. The last owner must have transported cattle in there as its rather dull and scratched. Is this part easy to get out and would I be able just to blow over in satin black etc rather than have to prime and all that?

I thought of doing mine green (again hee hee) has well and perhaps use a light sand paper and rub off some of the rust and maybe hammerite it and spray it green (same as the car colour) and laquer it. I think after sanding I wouldnt have to prime it as it will have enough grip on for the paint to grip on. Will be doing body work and other spray paint jobs this week end.

You can remove the seat back by undoing the 4 torx bolts in the tilt brackets. Once removed, it is possible to unpeel the seat cover from the peripheral seam in the steel seat back. Once you have done your prep and paint, just reattach the foam and fabric and reinstall.

I would think it is a economical way of finishing a tin or can of green paint. Saves space in my flat as well. dont have garage as well so if i buy lots of colours, the entire falt would be full of tin cans and spray cans. Currentl have a tail gate, 4 wheels and lots of car related tools in my living room...

Hmm,Good idea. My mates a carpet fitter. Should be able to get the correct glue etc as well

I'd never use Hammerite on that,, I'd spray it with car paint.
