I crashed my car near as damn it a year ago. And the yellow paint has only started going back on today! In the dark, and cold, I've been using a torch to see what I'm doing...
I know it'll look fairly crap and it won't last but I need my car to be all yellow for the purpose of Road Rallies in Oxford so have resigned myself to the fact I'll have to re-do it in the summer and rattle canned it.
Only done one wing so far

It hasn't been brown since like May last year! It's been non waterproof Primer and that is why it has ended up like...
But as it's just surface rust you can sand it back no sweat.
It's now like this.
Bit more presentable

If you'd sprayed it with halford's etch primer you would have found that it would have nearly have been a match for the original yellow paint.
