Is it easy to do? Not bothered too much about a perfect finish, just need to fill a hole or two and some cracks /scrapes.
Cheers

Done some on the track-bike, there were a few bigger holes which i fixed a mesh behind before applying the filler from the outside, it goes off pretty quickly too, and easy to sand to a decent ish finish.
Make sure you prime before painting the topcoat, it makes it so much easier to get a better finish, and i also used a clear lacquer as well, looks loads better.
Who you been swapping paint with then mate? :)

Cheers Wes, James Ellison got a bit elbowy!! Seriously though, was swapping paint with the tarmac and kerbs. Lost the front in the damp at the first chicane at oulton, low speed, but its just a bit ground away on one side. Nought serious, just embarrassing really. Tyres were shot :-(
