How flexable are these skirts then? They finish cars in celulose paints when they come out of the factory and on the bumpers it seems pretty good at not cracking even when you drive into a tree or something.....

The best paint u should use is ICI or as it now known... Nexa. The type of paint you should use is basecoat, which is then covered with a 2k clearcoat... this will give the best finish.... END OF STORY.

With regards to the flex, wont make a great deal of difference... but if u are worried about crackin under flex, then u could add 10% plastisiser(spell) additive to your paint and laxquer mix... this will allow for slight flex.

Happy spraying
