original floor coating?

Post by armo »

Im in the middle of striping the interior of my 84 mini all floor pans are completely original and rust free but the blavk coating is cracked and some bits missing so my plan is to remove it all clean it back to bare metal repaint and hopefully find something to replace the original coating it had . The problem is that I have no clue wat they used in the first place somone shed some light please

You can get tubs of it and paint it on from Co ops also.
It's pricey enough aroun €30 a litre I think the last time I checked.
